A Petworth Row House with Scale, History, and NW Positioning

709 Gallatin Street NW is a four-bedroom row house in Petworth, a neighborhood that has anchored NW Washington’s residential fabric since the early twentieth century. Built in 1927, the home reflects the brick-and-mortar craftsmanship that defines this corridor, with a footprint of 1,754 square feet distributed across a traditional multi-level layout.

The home’s four bedrooms and three and a half baths provide meaningful flexibility for a range of living arrangements. The half bath on the main level, full baths serving the upper floors, and the overall vertical organization of space are characteristic of the best Petworth row houses from this period.

Gallatin Street sits within easy reach of Georgia Avenue NW, Petworth’s primary commercial spine, where local restaurants, coffee shops, and neighborhood services are concentrated. The Georgia Ave-Petworth Metro station on the Green and Yellow lines is close to the Red Line at Fort Totten, making this address well-connected to the broader DC transit network.

About 709 Gallatin St NW

709 Gallatin Street NW is a four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath row house built in 1927 in the Petworth neighborhood of NW Washington. The home spans 1,754 square feet across a traditional multi-level layout, with brick construction characteristic of the pre-war residential development that defines this corridor. Three full baths and a main-level half bath provide practical distribution of space across the home’s vertical footprint.

Petworth is one of NW Washington’s most established residential neighborhoods, anchored by Georgia Avenue NW and a walkable grid of tree-lined blocks developed largely in the 1920s and 1930s. Gallatin Street sits within the neighborhood’s core, close to local restaurants, coffee shops, and everyday retail along Georgia Avenue. The Georgia Ave-Petworth Metro station provides direct Green and Yellow line access, and Fort Totten station — where the Green, Yellow, and Red lines converge — is also accessible from this address.

Daily life on Gallatin Street is organized around a walkable neighborhood with a well-developed commercial corridor on Georgia Avenue. Local cafes, restaurants, and neighborhood grocery options are within easy reach, and the proximity to Rock Creek Park’s eastern edge offers outdoor access that is uncommon this close to a Metro station. The block’s pre-war row house scale creates a consistent streetscape that distinguishes Petworth from more recently developed NW corridors.
