Classic Petworth Residence in a 1936 NW Building

The residence at 4805 4th St NW #2 sits in Petworth, one of NW DC’s most established and walkable neighborhoods. Built in 1936, the building carries the architectural character common to the corridor’s pre-war stock, offering a sense of permanence that newer construction rarely replicates.

At 565 square feet, the one-bedroom floor plan is purposefully scaled. The condo structure means the HOA handles sewer, water, trash, and insurance — a meaningful reduction in the unpredictability of monthly ownership costs.

Petworth’s 4th Street NW corridor connects residents to neighborhood retail, local dining, and transit options that make car-free or car-light living practical. The Georgia Avenue-Petworth Metro station on the Green and Yellow lines is accessible from the neighborhood, linking owners to downtown DC and beyond.

At $367,000, this residence represents a considered entry point into NW DC ownership — combining pre-war character, utility-inclusive HOA coverage, and a neighborhood with deep residential roots.

Pre-War Character
The building dates to 1936, placing it among Petworth’s pre-war residential stock. That era of construction is associated with solid masonry, defined room proportions, and a streetscape presence that distinguishes 4th Street NW from more recent infill development in the corridor.
Efficient Floor Plan
The residence offers 565 square feet configured as a one-bedroom, one-bath layout. The scale is appropriate for a primary residence or investment-minded ownership, with a floor plan that prioritizes livability over excess square footage.
Utility-Inclusive HOA
The HOA covers insurance, reserve funds, sewer, trash, and water. For an owner, this translates to predictable monthly carrying costs and reduced exposure to the variable utility expenses that affect non-HOA properties in the same price range.
Petworth Location
Petworth is a well-connected NW neighborhood with walkable retail along Georgia Avenue and transit access via the Green and Yellow lines. The 4th Street NW address places the residence on a residential block within easy reach of the neighborhood’s commercial core.
