About This Home
As of June 2025Welcome to The Margie — Contemporary Living in the Heart of 16th Street Heights
Step into modern comfort at The Margie, a stylish and pet-friendly seven-unit boutique condominium in the welcoming 16th Street Heights neighborhood. This light-filled residence offers an open layout designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. With six oversized windows and warm wood floors throughout, the home feels bright, spacious, and inviting from the moment you enter.
The large living and dining area provides flexibility for multiple seating arrangements and gatherings. At the heart of the home is a chef-ready kitchen, updated in 2021 with sleek quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a tile backsplash, and a central island with seating. A newly added glass-door built-in provides extra storage and display space for serving and entertaining needs.
The expansive primary bedroom includes a walk-in closet with custom organizers, a ceiling fan, linen storage, and a Juliet balcony offering a touch of outdoor charm. The en-suite bath, renovated in 2021, features a luxurious walk-in shower with designer tile. The spacious second bedroom—currently used as a home office—includes a murphy bed that conveys and a generous closet. The second full bath was also stylishly renovated in 2021 and includes a deep soaking tub with tile surround.
Additional features include a 2023 in-unit washer and dryer, coat and linen closets, and a private storage unit. The building is elevator-accessible, making daily life even more convenient.
Living at The Margie means enjoying all the local favorites just outside your door. Moreland’s Tavern is just around the corner for dining and drinks, and fitness enthusiasts will love being so close to 2nd Wind Gym. On Saturdays from April through November, the local farmer’s market sets up right out front. A short stroll takes you to the new additions along the northern stretch of the 14th Street corridor—enjoy Basque flavors at Atxondo, homestyle fare at Casa Mia, craft brews at Zeke’s, the Latin flavors and pastries at Catrachitos Restaurant & Bakery, and neighborhood staple Highlands Cafe.
You're also minutes from ANXO Cidery, Brightwood Pizza, Lost Sock Coffee Roasters, and the amenities of The Parks at Walter Reed—including the recently opened Whole Foods. With quick access to Beach Drive, major Metrobus routes along 16th Street and Georgia Avenue, Capital Bikeshare, and a short drive to the Takoma and Fort Totten Metro stations, this home offers the perfect balance of charm, convenience, and connected city living.
