Columbia Heights One-Bedroom at an Accessible Price

The residence at 3504 13th St NW #5 sits within a building constructed in 1910, one of many early-twentieth-century structures that define the architectural character of Columbia Heights NW. At 400 square feet, the floor plan is intentional and efficient, suited to owners who prioritize location and low overhead over square footage.

The monthly HOA covers water, sewer, trash, exterior building maintenance, management fees, and reserve fund contributions. For an owner-occupant, this level of inclusion meaningfully simplifies monthly budgeting and reduces exposure to unexpected building-related costs.

Columbia Heights offers direct access to the Green and Yellow Lines at the Columbia Heights Metro station, along with a dense concentration of retail, dining, and daily services along 14th St NW and Irving St NW. The neighborhood’s walkability and transit connectivity make car-free or car-light living genuinely practical.

At $265,500, this residence occupies a rare price tier for DC condos with utility-inclusive HOA coverage. For buyers seeking an owned foothold in NW DC without the carrying costs typical of larger units, this property warrants serious consideration.

The Building
The 1910 building at 3504 13th St NW reflects the pre-war residential stock that characterizes much of Columbia Heights. Unit 5 is a one-bedroom residence totaling 400 square feet. The building’s age and construction type are consistent with the established row-house-adjacent condo conversions common throughout this part of NW DC.
HOA Coverage
The HOA fee covers exterior building maintenance, management, reserve funds, sewer, trash, and water. This breadth of inclusion is meaningful for budget planning. Owners are largely insulated from the variable utility and maintenance costs that affect buildings with thinner HOA structures.
Neighborhood Access
Columbia Heights Metro on the Green and Yellow Lines is close to the property, placing downtown DC, U Street, and points south within easy reach. The 14th Street corridor provides grocery, pharmacy, dining, and retail options within walking distance. The neighborhood’s infrastructure supports daily life without a vehicle.
The Value Case
At $265,500, this residence sits at a price point that is increasingly rare for utility-inclusive condos in NW DC. The combination of a covered HOA, a historic building, and a Columbia Heights address creates a compelling ownership case for buyers focused on total cost of ownership rather than size alone.
