A Petworth Row House With Century-Old Character and Room to Grow

The home at 5316 5th Street NW is a four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath row house built in 1925, offering 2,200 square feet of interior space in the Petworth neighborhood of NW Washington. The structure reflects the brick-and-mortar craftsmanship typical of early twentieth-century DC residential construction, with the scale and floor plan that defines the Petworth streetscape.

Off-street parking via a concrete driveway is a practical asset that distinguishes this home from many comparable row houses in the area. Four bedrooms and three full baths provide flexibility across the floor plan, while the half bath adds convenience on a secondary level.

The Georgia Ave-Petworth Metro station places the Green and Yellow lines within reach, connecting the neighborhood to downtown DC, Columbia Heights, and points south.
