Top-Floor Residence on Connecticut Avenue

Residence 404 at 3600 Connecticut Avenue sits on the top floor of a 1928 building in Cleveland Park, one of NW DC’s most enduring residential corridors. The one-bedroom layout offers 700 square feet of well-proportioned living space in a building with genuine architectural character.

The HOA fee structure here is notably comprehensive, covering gas, heat, water, sewer, taxes, and reserve funds. For a buyer weighing true monthly cost of ownership, that all-in coverage materially changes the calculus relative to comparable condominiums with leaner HOA inclusions.

Connecticut Avenue provides direct access to neighborhood dining, retail, and the Cleveland Park Metro station on the Red Line. Rock Creek Park, one of the largest urban parks in the country, is accessible from the immediate streetscape.

At $315,000, this residence represents an entry point into a historically stable NW DC neighborhood with a cost-of-ownership profile that rewards careful underwriting.

The Residence
Residence 404 occupies the top floor of 3600 Connecticut Avenue, a 1928 building in Cleveland Park. The one-bedroom, one-bath layout spans 700 square feet with the proportions and ceiling character typical of pre-war NW DC construction. Being on the top floor eliminates overhead neighbor noise — a meaningful quality-of-life distinction in a mid-rise building.
HOA Value
The HOA at 3600 Connecticut Avenue covers gas, heat, water, sewer, taxes, and reserve funds. That breadth of inclusion is uncommon and directly reduces the unpredictability of monthly housing costs. Buyers should factor this into any side-by-side comparison with condominiums carrying lower stated fees but fewer inclusions.
Location Context
Cleveland Park sits along Connecticut Avenue NW between Woodley Park and Tenleytown, with the Red Line Metro station a short walk from the building’s entry. Rock Creek Park borders the neighborhood to the west, offering trail access and green space without leaving the immediate area. The Connecticut Avenue streetscape provides daily-errand walkability.
The Opportunity
At $315,000, this is a considered entry into Cleveland Park’s condominium market. The combination of pre-war architecture, a top-floor position, and an all-inclusive HOA structure makes this residence worth underwriting carefully against newer inventory at higher price points.

Property Location

About 3600 Connecticut Ave NW #404

The 3600 Connecticut Avenue building was constructed in 1928 and retains the architectural scale and detailing characteristic of that era in NW DC. Residence 404 occupies the top floor, a position that typically yields better light, reduced noise from above, and a sense of separation from the building’s common circulation. The 700-square-foot one-bedroom layout is efficiently proportioned for the footprint. The building’s HOA structure — covering gas, heat, water, sewer, taxes, and reserve funds — is among the more comprehensive seen at this price point in the Cleveland Park submarket.

Cleveland Park is one of NW DC’s most established residential neighborhoods, running along Connecticut Avenue between Woodley Park to the south and Tenleytown to the north. The corridor is walkable, with neighborhood-scale retail, dining, and services concentrated along Connecticut Avenue. The Red Line Metro station at Cleveland Park provides direct downtown access without a car. Rock Creek Park, which borders the neighborhood to the west, offers an extensive trail network and green space that is genuinely rare for an urban neighborhood of this density.

Day-to-day life at 3600 Connecticut Avenue centers on the Connecticut Avenue streetscape, where local cafes, grocers, and neighborhood restaurants are within walking distance of the building’s entry. Rock Creek Park extends the outdoor footprint considerably, with trails accessible from the immediate area. The Red Line connection at Cleveland Park Metro links residents to downtown DC, Bethesda, and points along the entire Red Line corridor. The building’s all-inclusive HOA simplifies the ownership experience by consolidating most utility and maintenance costs into a single monthly obligation.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Property

Key details about the residence, building, and location to help you evaluate this opportunity.

The HOA at 3600 Connecticut Avenue covers common area maintenance, gas, heat, management, reserve funds, sewer, taxes, and water. That is an unusually broad set of inclusions for a condominium at this price point. Buyers should request the current monthly fee amount and review the most recent reserve study before making an offer.
3600 Connecticut Avenue was built in 1928, placing it among Cleveland Park’s pre-war residential stock. Buildings of this era often feature solid masonry construction and architectural detailing not found in newer mid-rises. A thorough review of the condo association’s financials, reserve fund status, and any pending assessments is advisable before closing.
The Cleveland Park Metro station on the Red Line is a short walk from the building’s Connecticut Avenue entry. The Red Line provides direct service to downtown DC, Dupont Circle, Bethesda, and points across the corridor. For a car-free or car-light lifestyle, this location is well-positioned.
Parking is not listed as included with this residence. Buyers who require a parking space should inquire directly with the building management about availability, whether spaces can be rented or purchased separately, and what street parking conditions are like in the immediate area.
The residence itself does not include a private outdoor space. The building’s common areas are maintained through the HOA, and the Connecticut Avenue streetscape provides immediate access to the neighborhood. Rock Creek Park, one of the largest urban parks in the country, is accessible from the immediate area and serves as the primary outdoor amenity for residents.
At $315,000 for a top-floor one-bedroom in a 1928 building with a comprehensive HOA, this residence sits at a competitive entry point for the Cleveland Park submarket.

Reviewing the condo association’s reserve fund, recent meeting minutes, and any pending special assessments is essential. A thorough inspection and a careful read of the condo documents will surface any material issues before closing.
