Downtown DC Living with Garage Parking Included

Unit 1308 at 555 Massachusetts Avenue NW occupies the 13th floor of a well-established condominium building in the heart of downtown Washington. The residence offers 627 square feet of thoughtfully arranged living space, with city views that come standard at this elevation.

The building, completed in 2005, is professionally managed and maintains a strong reserve fund — details that matter to buyers evaluating long-term ownership. HOA coverage includes exterior building maintenance, insurance, pool access, snow removal, and trash, reducing the administrative burden of ownership.

An assigned garage parking space is included with the unit. In a neighborhood where parking is a genuine premium, this is a structural advantage that distinguishes the offering from comparable inventory on Massachusetts Avenue and nearby streets.

The location places residents within close reach of the Mount Vernon Triangle and Penn Quarter neighborhoods, with multiple Metro lines accessible nearby. The corridor supports a walkable daily routine, with dining, groceries, and services concentrated along Massachusetts Avenue and the surrounding blocks.

13th Floor Position
Unit 1308 sits on the 13th floor of 555 Massachusetts Avenue NW, a 2005-built condominium in downtown Washington. The 627-square-foot layout is efficient and well-proportioned for a one-bedroom residence. City views at this elevation add a dimension that ground-level units in the building cannot offer.
HOA Coverage
The HOA covers a broad range of ownership costs, including exterior building maintenance, insurance, pool access, reserve fund contributions, snow removal, and trash. Professional management is in place. These inclusions reduce the variable costs a buyer would otherwise carry independently.
Garage Parking
An assigned garage parking space conveys with the unit and is available for purchase. Parking in this section of NW DC is a genuine scarcity, and a dedicated garage space meaningfully strengthens the value proposition relative to comparable residences in the building and nearby.
Central Location
The address sits at the intersection of several walkable DC neighborhoods, with Penn Quarter, Mount Vernon Triangle, and Chinatown all within close reach. Multiple Metro lines serve the area, and the density of retail, dining, and services along Massachusetts Avenue supports a car-optional daily routine for those who prefer it.
