Property Description
COLUMBIA HEIGHTS OPPORTUNITY | 3 BEDROOMS | PRIVATE PARKING | $450,000
A diamond in the rough in the heart of Columbia Heights/ Georgia Avenue/ Howard University, your opportunity to own a classic DC rowhouse in one of Northwest Washington's most desirable and walkable neighborhoods at a price that makes homeownership accessible.
612 Lamont Street NW is not a tear-down and not a handyman special. It is a classic 1910 rowhouse with good bones that needs thoughtful updating to bring out its full potential. For the first-time buyer willing to put in a little elbow grease, the savvy owner-occupant who wants to make a home their own, or the contractor who knows how to see the possibilities, this could be the one you've been waiting for.
Three bedrooms, one bath, and 1,684 square feet in a traditional DC rowhouse layout. High ceilings and original hardwood floors with excellent natural light throughout. Basement with laundry hookups and substantial space for storage or future development. Plus the increasingly rare luxury of private off-street parking.
You don't have to pay the premium for someone else's renovation to get into Columbia Heights. Instead, purchase at an accessible price and improve the home over time, creating a space that reflects your own style while building equity along the way. Comparable fully-renovated three-bedroom rowhouses in Columbia Heights sell for $750K–$850K. At $450K, you're positioned to create real homeowner wealth.
Kitchen updates, bathroom refresh, flooring restoration, roof inspection, HVAC evaluation, and general modernizing are needed. These are phased improvements you can tackle over 12–24 months, this does not need a gut renovation. Think equity-building renovation project.
Situated on Lamont Street in the heart of Columbia Heights, surrounded by restaurants, coffee shops, parks, and recreation that make this area so desirable. Georgia Avenue nearby for convenient access to Petworth, Howard University, and multiple Metro options. Walk to what matters; minutes from downtown DC.
Bring your vision. Bring your ideas. Bring your contractor if you have one. This home is ready for an owner who sees potential and is willing to make it their own. Come on by and take a tour!
