About This Home
ATTENTION DEVELOPERS, INVESTORS, FLIPPERS & AMBITIOUS OWNER-OCCUPANTS! Rare opportunity to acquire a detached home on an oversized 10,748 SF corner lot in the Fort Dupont Park area. The property is zoned R-1B and offers an intriguing redevelopment opportunity. Given the property's lot size, location, and zoning, buyers may wish to investigate potential subdivision or redevelopment opportunities. No representation is made regarding subdivision or development feasibility; buyers must independently verify with DC DOB, the Office of Zoning, and/or other appropriate professionals.
Prefer to keep the existing home and large yard? Buyers may also want to explore the potential for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) or other permitted expansion, subject to DC zoning, building requirements, and approvals.
PROPERTY REQUIRES SUBSTANTIAL RENOVATION AND IS SOLD STRICTLY AS-IS. SELLER WILL MAKE NO REPAIRS. Known conditions include a roof believed to be at or near the end of its useful life, a bowing basement wall, and settlement cracking on the second floor. Buyers are strongly encouraged to have appropriately licensed professionals evaluate the property and its structural condition. Listing photos have been digitally enhanced. No sight-unseen offers will be accepted.
Close to Fort Dupont Park, local recreation, shopping, Downtown DC, and Maryland. Bring your contractor, architect, and ideas. Seller is open to all offers. Contact the listing agent with any questions.
