Top-Floor Living in Petworth NW

The penthouse residence at 4143 New Hampshire Ave NW occupies the top floor of a 1912 building on one of NW DC’s most recognizable diagonal corridors. At 1,920 square feet, the three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath layout offers proportions that are increasingly rare at this price point in the District.

The HOA structure here is notably comprehensive. Exterior building maintenance, insurance, sewer, water, parking fee, and reserve fund contributions are all included, giving the owner a predictable cost basis and freedom from many of the maintenance obligations that accompany older building ownership.

Petworth has long been a neighborhood of substantial row houses, neighborhood institutions, and direct transit access. The Georgia Ave-Petworth Metro station provides a straightforward connection to downtown DC, and the Georgia Avenue corridor supports a range of dining, grocery, and service options within walking distance.

For buyers weighing space, character, and cost of ownership in NW DC, this residence presents a considered case. The combination of penthouse position, historic construction, and an all-in HOA makes it a distinctive option in the Petworth and upper NW market.

The Residence
The penthouse unit at 4143 New Hampshire Ave NW spans 1,920 square feet across three bedrooms and two and a half baths.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Property

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

The HOA at 4143 New Hampshire Ave NW covers exterior building maintenance, insurance, sewer, water, parking fee, and reserve fund contributions. This is a notably comprehensive structure for a DC building of this type, and it meaningfully reduces the variable cost exposure that often accompanies ownership in older construction. Buyers should request the current HOA documents to confirm fee amounts and any pending assessments.
The Georgia Ave-Petworth Metro station, served by the Green and Yellow lines, is the nearest station to 4143 New Hampshire Ave NW. The Green and Yellow lines provide direct service to downtown DC, L’Enfant Plaza, and points south, as well as connections north toward Fort Totten and beyond. Multiple Metrobus routes along New Hampshire Avenue and Georgia Avenue supplement rail access.
The PH1 designation places this unit on the top floor of the building, which typically means no upstairs neighbors, reduced noise transmission from above, and in many cases elevated ceiling heights or additional light exposure. In a 1912 building, the top-floor position also often corresponds to distinctive architectural details. Buyers should confirm specific ceiling heights and unit configuration at the time of showing.
At $709,999, 1,920 square feet in NW DC represents a competitive price-per-square-foot relative to comparable inventory in neighborhoods like Petworth, Columbia Heights, and Brightwood. Many DC condos and condo-regime units in this price range offer considerably less space. Buyers focused on interior square footage will find this residence worth direct comparison against active and recent-sold inventory.
Petworth is an established NW DC neighborhood defined by early-twentieth-century row house architecture, a walkable commercial corridor along Georgia Avenue, and strong transit connectivity. The neighborhood has a long residential history and a mix of owner-occupied and rental housing. New Hampshire Avenue provides a direct diagonal route connecting Petworth to Columbia Heights to the south and Takoma to the north.
The HOA structure includes a parking fee as one of its covered line items, which indicates parking is associated with the property and its cost is folded into the HOA. Buyers should confirm the specific parking arrangement — whether deeded, assigned, or otherwise — by reviewing the HOA documents and confirming details with the listing agent prior to making an offer.
Buildings of this era in DC often feature solid construction, thick walls, and architectural details not found in modern builds, but they also warrant careful due diligence. Buyers should commission a thorough home inspection, review the HOA reserve fund study, and assess the condition of shared systems including roof, plumbing, and electrical. The comprehensive HOA coverage here suggests the building has a structured maintenance approach, which is a positive indicator.
The Wardman Residential team at Compass has direct experience with Petworth and upper NW DC properties, including HOA-covered historic buildings in this price range. We can provide recent comparable sales, context on current market conditions, and guidance through the due diligence process.
