Upscale living in a walkable, commercial neighborhood
Tucked between Foggy Bottom and Georgetown, with easy access to downtown Washington D.C., the West End gives residents luxury residential living in a bustling commercial area. Many people move here to enjoy upscale living in a vibrant area filled with award-winning shops, and with easy access to the D.C. area's stellar public transportation, nearby destinations and major employers are just a short ride away. Home to green spaces and award-winning eateries that sit on the ground floor of some condo buildings, this neighborhood offers locals plenty of opportunities for days and nights out.

Unlike other nearby downtown areas that tend to get sleepy after the commuters depart for the day, the West End continues to remain vibrant due to all of the attractions," says Thomas Miller, a Realtor with Keller Williams Capital Properties who lives in the D.C. area and has sold properties in the West End. "It almost feels like New York," he adds, referencing the many hotels, award-winning restaurants, proximity to green spaces and the pedestrian-oriented community.
