Set in a 1910 building on 13th Street NW, this one-bedroom, one-bath residence offers an entry point into one of Washington’s most walkable and transit-connected corridors. The monthly HOA covers water, sewer, trash, insurance, management, reserve funds, and custodial maintenance — reducing the variable cost burden for the owner. Columbia Heights places residents within reach of the Georgia Avenue-Petworth and Columbia Heights Metro stations, along with a dense concentration of dining, retail, and green space along 14th Street NW.
The residence at 3504 13th St NW #31 occupies a building that dates to 1910, placing it among the older residential structures in Columbia Heights NW. One-bedroom condominiums in this corridor represent a practical and well-located ownership opportunity, particularly for buyers prioritizing transit access and walkability over square footage.
The HOA structure here is notably inclusive. Water, sewer, trash, insurance, management, reserve funds, and custodial maintenance are all covered — a combination that simplifies monthly budgeting and reduces the likelihood of unexpected out-of-pocket costs beyond the base assessment.
Columbia Heights is one of the most transit-rich neighborhoods in NW DC. The Columbia Heights Metro station on the Green and Yellow lines sits nearby, and the 14th Street corridor provides direct bus service into downtown. The neighborhood’s commercial density along 14th Street NW includes grocery options, independent restaurants, and everyday retail within walking distance.
At $315,000, this residence is positioned at the accessible end of the NW DC condo market. For buyers evaluating ownership versus renting in this submarket, the all-in monthly cost — mortgage plus a well-structured HOA — merits a close look against current rental comparables in the area.

Property Location
The residence at 3504 13th St NW #31 is a one-bedroom, one-bath condo within a building constructed in 1910. Pre-war residential buildings in Columbia Heights NW are known for their structural solidity and period character — qualities that distinguish them from the area’s newer condominium conversions. The HOA for this building covers a comprehensive set of line items: custodial services, maintenance, insurance, management, reserve funds, sewer, trash, and water. That breadth of coverage is worth factoring into any side-by-side comparison with buildings that carry lower nominal HOA fees but pass more costs through to owners.
Columbia Heights is one of the most walkable and transit-accessible neighborhoods in NW DC. The 14th Street corridor — running just one block west — anchors the neighborhood’s commercial life, with grocery stores, independent restaurants, coffee shops, and retail concentrated between Park Road and Irving Street NW. Meridian Hill Park, one of DC’s most architecturally significant green spaces, is within easy walking distance and serves as a central gathering point for the neighborhood.
Day-to-day life at this address is oriented around walkability and transit. The Columbia Heights Metro station on the Green and Yellow lines provides direct service to downtown DC, U Street, and points south and north. The 14th Street bus corridor adds additional frequency and flexibility for commuters. For residents who prefer not to own a car, this location supports that choice effectively — grocery, dining, parks, and transit are all accessible without one.
