Property Description
Welcome to 1131 Girard Street NW, a classic brick rowhome in the heart of Columbia Heights. Built in 1910, this expansive property offers 6 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and nearly 3,000 square feet of living space on a 2,367-square-foot lot.
Zoned RF-1, the home presents a compelling value-add opportunity for investors, developers, or end users seeking to restore and reimagine a substantial residence in one of Washington, DC's most vibrant and in-demand neighborhoods. Bring your vision and unlock the potential of this large Columbia Heights property.
The home has been in the same family since the 1960s and sits close to Columbia Heights Metro, Shaw-Howard University Metro, Georgia Ave-Petworth Metro, and the U Street corridor. It also offers easy access to Howard University, the VA Medical Center, restaurants, shops, and other neighborhood conveniences.
The surrounding area has seen many rowhomes updated into modern condo-style residences. Nearby Columbia Heights homes also reach well above $2 million, which helps show the potential market value after renovation.
