Mid-Century Semi-Detached Home on Farragut Place

706 Farragut Place NE occupies a well-established residential block in Brookland, a neighborhood defined by its mid-century housing stock, tree-lined streets, and proximity to the Red Line. The home was built in 1949 and retains the architectural character typical of the era, with a semi-detached configuration that provides side yard exposure and a degree of separation from neighboring structures.

The interior spans 1,128 square feet, organized across two bedrooms and one and a half baths. The layout reflects the practical proportions of postwar DC residential construction, with defined living and dining areas and a functional kitchen footprint. A rear yard extends the usable space outdoors, offering utility for gardening, storage, or outdoor seating.

Brookland’s walkable commercial strip along 12th Street NE places local cafes, restaurants, and neighborhood services within easy reach. The Brookland-CUA Metro station on the Red Line provides direct access to downtown DC and points throughout the region, making this address practical for a range of daily routines.

The Property
706 Farragut Place NE is a semi-detached home in Brookland, built in 1949 and representative of the neighborhood’s cohesive mid-century residential fabric.

Interior Layout
