Logan Circle NW — 917 Westminster St

A Victorian Row House on One of Logan Circle's Most Intact Blocks

917 Westminster St NW is a four-bedroom row house built in 1895, set on a tree-lined block in Logan Circle where the Victorian streetscape has remained largely undisturbed for well over a century. The home spans 2,495 square feet across a traditional row house footprint, with a front facade that contributes to the architectural continuity Westminster Street is known for.

Logan Circle occupies a distinctive position in NW Washington — a neighborhood where late-19th-century residential architecture coexists with some of the city’s most active dining, retail, and cultural corridors. The location places residents within reach of 14th Street, P Street, and the broader Shaw and U Street submarkets, all accessible without leaving the immediate neighborhood grid.

At 2,495 square feet, the home offers meaningful interior volume for a DC row house, with four bedrooms and two full baths plus a half bath. The 1895 construction date places it among the earlier residential builds in the neighborhood, a period when Logan Circle was established as one of the city’s premier residential addresses.

The home occupies a full row house footprint on Westminster Street, a block whose intact 19th-century streetscape distinguishes it within the neighborhood. The front facade faces a tree-lined residential street consistent with the original block configuration, and the rear of the property follows the typical Logan Circle lot pattern with potential for rear yard space.

Logan Circle is one of Washington DC’s most architecturally coherent historic neighborhoods, defined by its namesake traffic circle and the dense grid of Victorian row houses that surround it. Westminster Street sits within this grid, offering proximity to the commercial energy of 14th Street NW while maintaining the character of a residential block. The neighborhood connects directly to Shaw, U Street, and Dupont Circle, placing a wide range of dining, retail, and cultural destinations within easy reach on foot or by transit.

Day-to-day life in Logan Circle is oriented around walkability and the neighborhood’s position at the intersection of several of DC’s most active corridors.
