About This Home

As of November 2022

Finally, a bright south-facing corner unit on a high floor at The Observatory of Georgetown! A wall of windows leads to the balcony with sweeping views from the Naval Observatory to Dumbarton Oaks Park to the Washington Monument, and even a glimpse of the Capitol. July 4th party's at your place this year, because your new home has a direct view of the fireworks! The entire unit has been thoughtfully updated. The spacious kitchen features white Shaker style cabinet doors, new stainless appliances and Calacatta Laza quartz counters and full-height backsplash. The updated bath finishes mirror the kitchen, and the bedroom is unusually large with a walk-in closet and plenty of space for a home office, Peloton, etc.
Wide plank, real wood floors, your own front loading washer/dryer, and TWO SUV-size garage spaces - the perfect package! Agent is owner

The Observatory of Georgetown is a modern building nestled at the edge of Dumbarton Oaks Park that offers both urban accessibility and a convenient, relaxed vibe. The enviable location is served by many bus lines right out front, Trader Joe's is next door, and all of the fun restaurants, shopping and history of Georgetown are just down the street. Love to shop online? Then no problem, because the 24/7 staffed front desk will gladly accept those packages for you! No need for a pricey gym membership when you live in a building with a gym that offers both cardio and weights, and the gorgeous pool with park views and a gas grill will be your new go-to spot for hanging with friends and neighbors or just a relaxing afternoon in the sun next summer. If you love nature, there's a trail head behind the building that leads you through miles of wooded trails. And, of course, the Observatory is pet friendly! Welcome Home!
