About This Home

As of July 2021

While D.C.’s dynamic Shaw neighborhood has been enjoying a renaissance of a sort, there is one little stretch of this historic enclave that has seen a particularly sophisticated transformation. On Eighth Street NW, once interrupted by a vast urban parking lot, we now find Giant Foods in the completely renovated historic O Street Market. This little stretch is also home to the remarkable French bistro cuisine of Convivial and the seasonal farm-fresh bounty of Oyster Oyster. Merely a block beyond, add Chaplin’s, Dacha, Zeppelin, Grand Cata, La Jambe…. On and on. From cassoulet to Kristallweizen, this corner of Shaw is a tastemaker. And your home in the heart of it sits at 1542 8th St. NW. With three bedrooms, full finished basement, huge dedicated laundry/utility room, fenced back yard, and off-street parking, you’ll certainly have room to grow. Skylights and exposed brick add a warm welcome to this Shaw-chic showplace. Shaw has been transforming for generations and shows no sign of slowing. 1542 8th St. NW is your unique opportunity and invitation to become a part of it. ShawChic.com
