Historic Character | Modern Upgrades | Unbeatable Location
Perched on a high floor in one of Washington, D.C.'s most iconic buildings, this beautifully renovated apartment offers the perfect blend of historic charm and modern convenience. Move-in ready, this bright and stylish home has been thoughtfully upgraded with brand-new flooring, recessed lighting, fresh paint, new quartz countertops, and updated baseboards throughout.
Soaring ceilings over 9 feet tall, exposed original brick, and a decorative fireplace lend authentic character and warmth to the space, while large windows frame striking city views and flood the unit with natural light. The layout is both unique and functional, with clever use of space and ample storage throughout.
The spacious primary bedroom enjoys a serene northern view, while the second bedroom is ideal as a guest room or a dedicated home office. The apartment’s timeless appeal, combined with thoughtful modern finishes, creates an inviting urban sanctuary.
Residents of The Cairo, Washington’s tallest residential building, enjoy full-service amenities including a 24-hour front desk, full-time on-site property management and maintenance staff, a stunning rooftop deck with panoramic 360-degree city views, on-site laundry, bike storage, and trash/recycling on every floor. With its striking Moorish Revival limestone facade, The Cairo is a true architectural treasure and a towering symbol of the vibrant Dupont Circle community.
Located just three blocks from Dupont Circle Metro, this location offers unmatched walkability with a Walk Score of 97. Enjoy immediate access to downtown, top-rated restaurants, boutique shops, and essentials like Safeway, Trader Joe’s, and Whole Foods. Proximity to 16th Street bus lines and car share options make city living seamless — no car required.
Pet-friendly, rich with history, and full of personality — this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of D.C. in a truly exceptional setting.
