What This House Offers
Spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home in the heart of 16th Street Heights, one of DC's most vibrant and walkable neighborhoods. Features include generous sized... rooms, outdoor space, and one off-street parking space — a rare find in the city. Tenants responsible for all utilities. Restaurants & Dining Right on your doorstep, Kennedy Street has become a dining destination in its own right. Taqueria Distrito Federal (805 Kennedy St, 0.3 mi) is widely celebrated as some of the most authentic Mexican food in DC, with hand-pressed tortillas and killer margaritas. Shellfish Market (443 Kennedy St, 0.5 mi) is a buzzy seafood bar and grill perfect for date nights. Head to Georgia Avenue for Oohh's & Aahh's (5933 Georgia Ave, 0.5 mi), a beloved DC soul food institution, and Seven Seas (5915 Georgia Ave, 0.5 mi), a Latin restaurant open late on weekends. Moreland's Tavern (5501 14th St, 0.4 mi) rounds things out as a cozy neighborhood bar and grill with excellent burgers. Public Transportation The property is exceptionally well-positioned between two Metro lines. Takoma Station (Red Line) is approximately 1.5 miles north, offering direct service downtown and into Maryland. Georgia Ave–Petworth Station (Green & Yellow Lines) is approximately 1.5 miles south, connecting to U Street, Columbia Heights, and beyond. Multiple Metrobus routes stop at Kennedy & 14th St and Kennedy & 16th St NW, just steps from the front door, providing frequent service across the city without needing to drive. For drivers, the property offers quick access to Rock Creek Parkway, one of DC's most scenic and efficient commuter corridors, providing a stress-free, traffic-light-free route south through the park and connecting directly to the Theodore Roosevelt Bridge and I-66 into Virginia — ideal for commuters heading to Arlington, Rosslyn, or beyond.
