This beautiful single-family semi-detached, natural-light-filled, rowhouse is located in the vibrant and convenient neighborhood of Columbia Heights. The first and second floors are unfurnished, while the cozy English basement is fully furnished and includes two bedrooms, one bathroom, and access to a small private back patio.
The home features a renovated kitchen and bathrooms throughout. The first floor offers a full kitchen, a bathroom, a living room, a sitting room, and a dining room ideal for both relaxing and entertaining. The second floor includes a spacious primary bedroom with a large en-suite bathroom, along with two additional bedrooms and another full bathroom. Unlike most DC rowhouses, the house is semi-detached and hence has windows along the one side, allowing for substantial natural light.
Each floor provides approximately 1,000 square feet of living space. The backyard includes a private parking spot for a sedan or small SUV/Crossover.
The location is excellent, just a 7-minute walk to the Columbia Heights Metro station and a 14-minute walk to the Georgia Ave Petworth Metro station. There are several bus stops within one to two minutes walking distance of the property.
You'll be within walking distance of everyday essentials, including Giant Supermarket, Lidl Supermarket, and Target, Safeway (8 minutes), and Whole Foods on Sherman Avenue (13 minutes). The home is just one block from the lively 11th Street restaurant and bar corridor, featuring popular spots like Wonderland Ballroom, Buddy's, El Chucho, RedRocks Pizza, The Coupe, El Jardin, and Queen's English.
For entertainment, you're only one mile from the 9:30 Club, Atlantic Plumbing Cinema, and the U Street Corridor's bars and restaurants. Public transit also provides easy access to the National Mall, including the Capitol Building, Smithsonian museums, and major monuments.
This unit is ideal for professionals, government officials assigned to Washington, graduate and PhD students, and medical students looking for a comfortable and well connected place to live.

About Pleasant
Plains
Pleasant Plains, located between Howard University and Shaw, is a residential and historic Washington neighborhood with brick rowhouses and pocket parks. Georgia Avenue NW near W Street NW concentrates the neighborhood’s street energy, with corner carryouts, barbershops, and small storefronts in a steady daytime rhythm. Howard Theatre and the Banneker Community Center serve as cultural anchors, with performances, classes, and community gatherings. Side streets show late-19th- and early-20th-century architecture—bay-front facades, deep stoops, and narrow rear alleys. The setting balances campus edges with quieter blocks, and nearby Metro stations keep downtown commutes straightforward.
