A Considered Residence in Park View NW

The building at 3542 Warder Street NW dates to 1911, carrying the architectural character of early 20th-century NW Washington into a thoughtfully converted residential format. Unit 304 occupies the third floor with 1,259 square feet across two bedrooms and two full baths — a floor plan that offers genuine separation between living and sleeping spaces.

Park View is one of NW DC’s more walkable inland neighborhoods, positioned between Columbia Heights and Petworth along the Georgia Avenue corridor. Residents have direct access to neighborhood restaurants, cafes, and grocery options without the density of 14th Street or U Street.

On-site parking is available for separate purchase — a practical advantage in a neighborhood where street parking is competitive. The HOA structure covers water, sewer, snow removal, common area maintenance, insurance, and reserve funds, reducing the variable cost burden for the owner.

The Wardman Residential team at Compass has worked extensively with buyers and sellers across Park View, Columbia Heights, and Petworth. A Wardman team member is available to walk through recent comparable sales and help you evaluate this residence in the context of the broader NW submarket.

Historic Building Stock
The building’s 1911 origins give it a structural and aesthetic profile distinct from newer construction. Converted residential buildings of this era in NW DC tend to feature higher ceilings, thicker walls, and period detailing that newer builds rarely replicate. Unit 304 sits on the third floor, offering elevation above street level.
Park View Location
Park View occupies a central position in upper NW, bordered by Columbia Heights to the south and Petworth to the north. Georgia Avenue provides a walkable commercial spine with restaurants, coffee, and daily retail. The neighborhood’s residential streets are lined with early 20th-century row houses and converted apartment buildings.
Parking and HOA
On-site parking — available for purchase alongside the unit — addresses one of the more practical ownership considerations in this part of NW. The HOA covers water, sewer, snow removal, insurance, common area maintenance, and reserve contributions, which simplifies monthly budgeting for the owner.

Day-to-day life on this stretch of NW centers on Georgia Avenue’s mix of neighborhood dining, independent retail, and essential services.
