Washington Condo for Sale

Washington, one of Fargo’s earliest suburbs, offers a nostalgic 1950s suburban feel with the convenience of downtown Fargo and the Red River nearby. The neighborhood is characterized by its tree-lined streets, post-war ramblers with detached garages, and modernized interiors that maintain vintage charm. Residents enjoy a strong sense of community, often seen greeting each other in their shaded front yards or during winter snow shoveling. Washington is home to several highly rated schools, including Ben Franklin Middle School and North High School, which is noted for its STEM programs and performing arts clubs. Holy Spirit Elementary is also conveniently located, with Sacred Heart Middle School and Shanley High School a short distance away. The area features several parks, including Percy Godwin Park, known locally as Elephant Park, and the North River Grassland, part of the Urban Woods and Prairies Initiative. Golf enthusiasts can visit El Zagal Public Golf Course, which also offers FootGolf. The neighborhood is safer than the national average, though residents are mindful of potential flooding from the Red River, with the FM Diversion project aiming to mitigate this risk by 2027. Washington is well-connected with several MATBUS routes and is just 2 miles from downtown Fargo and 3 miles from Hector International Airport. Local dining and shopping options are plentiful, with Northport Shopping Center and downtown Fargo providing a variety of choices. The Fargodome, located on the neighborhood’s western edge, hosts numerous events, including the popular RibFest in June.
