Executive Summary
931 M St NW is a five-bedroom, four-full-bath semi-detached row house in Mount Vernon Triangle, one of NW DC’s most architecturally cohesive historic corridors. Built in 1890 and spanning 4,065 interior square feet across multiple levels, the home offers a rare combination of original-era scale and the infrastructure to support contemporary living. A private garage space, two half baths, and proximity to multiple Metro lines and downtown DC institutions round out a compelling offering at $2,350,000.
Historic Scale in the Heart of NW DC
931 M St NW is a semi-detached row house of uncommon size and provenance, built in 1890 and situated in the Mount Vernon Triangle neighborhood of NW Washington. At 4,065 square feet, the home occupies a footprint rarely available in this part of the city, where intact Victorian-era residential fabric commands sustained buyer attention.
The five-bedroom, four-full-bath configuration distributes across multiple levels in a manner consistent with late-19th-century DC residential construction — generous room proportions, high ceilings, and a vertical flow that distinguishes the type from later-era attached housing. Two half baths add practical flexibility throughout the home.
A private one-car garage is a meaningful asset in a neighborhood where off-street parking is scarce. Mount Vernon Triangle sits at the convergence of several major transit corridors, placing multiple Metro lines and the broader downtown grid within easy reach.
At $2,350,000, the home represents a significant position in the NW DC row house market — one supported by the property’s scale, age, and location at the edge of Penn Quarter, NoMa, and Capitol Hill’s western approach.

Property Location
About 931 M St NW
931 M St NW is a semi-detached row house constructed in 1890, representing a well-preserved example of the late-Victorian residential scale that defines Mount Vernon Triangle. The home spans 4,065 square feet across multiple levels, with five bedrooms and four full baths supported by two additional half baths. A private one-car garage — uncommon for the block type — adds a layer of everyday practicality that buyers in this corridor consistently prioritize. The home’s configuration and footprint place it in a distinct tier within the NW DC row house market.
Mount Vernon Triangle occupies a compact but strategically positioned section of NW DC, bounded by the Penn Quarter district to the west and the NoMa corridor to the north and east. The neighborhood’s residential streets retain much of their original late-19th-century character, with intact row house blocks that have attracted sustained preservation interest. Local cafes, restaurants, and grocery options are accessible on foot, and the broader downtown grid expands the range of daily amenities considerably. The area’s position between several of DC’s most active commercial districts gives it a connectivity that few purely residential neighborhoods can match.
Daily life at 931 M St NW is shaped by the home’s proximity to the full range of central DC amenities. Multiple Metro lines are accessible within a short walk, connecting residents to the broader region without reliance on a car — though the private garage ensures that option remains available. The surrounding blocks offer neighborhood dining, coffee, and retail, while Penn Quarter and the downtown core extend those options considerably. The home’s scale supports a range of living arrangements, from dedicated home office space to guest accommodations, within a historic structure that carries genuine architectural character.
