Executive Summary
Set on Ellicott Street NW in American University Park, this three-bedroom single-family home was built in 1955 and spans 1,406 square feet. The home sits within one of NW DC’s most established residential enclaves, a neighborhood defined by tree-lined streets, walkable retail corridors, and proximity to the Tenleytown and Friendship Heights commercial districts. At $1,100,000, the property represents a meaningful entry point into a submarket where single-family inventory remains consistently limited.
Single-Family Living in American University Park
The home at 4711 Ellicott Street NW occupies a residential street in American University Park, one of NW DC’s most enduring single-family neighborhoods. Built in 1955, the structure reflects the mid-century scale and craftsmanship characteristic of this corridor — modest in footprint, deliberate in layout, and situated on a block that has remained consistently sought after for decades.
At 1,406 square feet across three bedrooms and one and a half baths, the home offers a livable, right-sized floor plan. The interior proportions are well-suited to everyday use, with room configurations that support both daily routines and occasional entertaining without excess.
American University Park sits between the Tenleytown and Friendship Heights corridors, giving residents walkable access to grocery options, independent dining, and neighborhood retail along Wisconsin and Nebraska Avenues. The Red Line at Tenleytown-AU is accessible by foot, connecting the neighborhood directly to downtown DC and beyond.
Single-family homes in American University Park trade infrequently relative to demand, and properties on interior residential streets like Ellicott command particular attention when they come to market. The $1,100,000 price point reflects both the neighborhood’s established position and the home’s potential for a buyer prepared to invest in the asset.
