A Petworth Row House With Room to Grow

611 Gallatin Street NW is a five-bedroom row house in Petworth, a NW Washington neighborhood defined by tree-lined blocks, early-twentieth-century architecture, and proximity to multiple transit options. The home was built in 1926 and retains the structural character typical of that era while offering 2,085 square feet of interior space across its full footprint.

The layout accommodates five bedrooms and three full baths plus a half bath, a configuration that provides genuine flexibility for how the space is used day to day. Private driveway parking — concrete, paved, and secured — is a notable practical advantage in a city where off-street parking at this price point is far from guaranteed.

Petworth sits in upper NW, bounded by Georgia Avenue to the west and North Capitol Street to the east, with the Green and Yellow Line Metro stations at Georgia Ave-Petworth and Columbia Heights both accessible from the neighborhood. The surrounding blocks offer a walkable mix of local dining, retail, and everyday services along Georgia Avenue and Upshur Street NW.

At $975,000, this home is priced within the range of comparable five-bedroom row houses in NW DC, where inventory at this bedroom count remains limited. The combination of scale, parking, and a 1926 address in an established neighborhood makes this a property worth examining carefully.

Layout and Parking

The private driveway — concrete, paved, and secured — adds a layer of convenience that distinguishes this home from many comparable row houses in the neighborhood.
