New Construction in Deanwood SE

The home at 5346 Drake Pl SE is a 2025 new construction single-family residence situated on a private lot along a residential street in Deanwood. Four bedrooms and three and a half baths provide a generous floor plan rarely found at this price point within DC proper.

Deanwood occupies the eastern edge of the District in SE, a neighborhood with deep roots and increasing attention from buyers seeking detached homes inside city limits. Drake Pl SE is a quiet residential street, and the private lot affords outdoor living potential that attached housing simply cannot offer.

The Wardman Residential team at Compass represented the buyer on this transaction, bringing local market knowledge and advisory expertise to the acquisition of a newly built home in this evolving corner of the District.

New Construction Quality
Completed in 2025, the home reflects current construction standards with contemporary materials and finishes throughout. Buyers acquire a property with no deferred maintenance, no renovation timeline, and the confidence that comes with new-build systems and warranties.
Deanwood Setting
Deanwood is one of DC’s established SE neighborhoods, offering a residential character and tree-lined streets that distinguish it from denser parts of the city. The neighborhood sits near the DC-Maryland border and provides convenient access to multiple transit options.
Private Lot Advantage
The private lot on Drake Pl SE is a meaningful differentiator for buyers seeking outdoor space within the District. New construction on a detached lot at this price point is a combination that rarely surfaces in the DC single-family market.
Buyer Representation
A Wardman team member guided the buyer through this acquisition, providing comparable sales analysis, negotiation support, and advisory throughout the transaction. The team’s familiarity with SE DC’s single-family market informed every step of the process.
