Property Description
Discover an extraordinary opportunity in the heart of DC's highly coveted, ultra-walkable Bloomingdale neighborhood. Configured as a fully legal, turn-key two-unit building, 51 Q Street NW offers two entirely distinct, self-contained living spaces—each featuring independent private entrances and dual means of egress.
Whether you are looking for an expansive multi-generational estate, a high-yield investment addition to your portfolio, or a savvy house-hacking opportunity where premium rental income covers a massive chunk of your mortgage, this versatile property delivers on every level.
The Upper Unit: A Sophisticated Main Residence
Step into a sun-drenched, modern 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom haven that boasts a grand scale and layout rarely found in the District.
Design & Layout: An airy, open-concept main level anchored by rich espresso hardwood floors and brilliant LED lighting throughout.
Chef's Kitchen: A sleek, Euro-style culinary space featuring premium quartz countertops and contemporary finishes.
The Lower Unit: A Premium Income Producer or Guest Suite
The fully independent 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom lower-level suite is a masterclass in urban design. Perfectly suited for young professionals, couples, or extended family, this flexible space is an absolute cash cow, capable of commanding up to $3,000/month in market rent.
Features: A modern kitchen with quartz countertops, a dedicated stacked washer/dryer, and excellent natural light.
Versatility: Ideal as a high-earning long-term rental, a premium Airbnb, an upscale home office, or a private guest suite.
The Urban Compound & Outdoor Living
Embrace the luxury of private outdoor space in the city. The property features a secure, gated front green space that maximizes curb appeal, alongside a gated rear yard with convenient alley access—perfect for entertaining, pets, or creating your own hidden garden lounge.
Prime Location & Effortless Commuting
Location is everything, and 51 Q Street NW puts the absolute best of DC right at your doorstep. You are just one block away from the vibrant 1st Street dining corridor, home to legendary neighborhood institutions like The Red Hen, Big Bear Cafe, Boundary Stone, and Baccio Pizza.

Neighborhood Vibes: Enjoy an easy stroll to the bustling nightlife and dining of U Street, 14th Street, Logan Circle, Union Market, and NoMa.
