3000 sf vacant corner lot, R2 zoning, matter of right to build semi-detached house. 15-foot alley in rear. Owner will consider financing for right buyer
Fairlawn, located between the Anacostia River and Pennsylvania Avenue SE, is a residential and riverside Washington, DC neighborhood with rowhouse blocks and broad parkland edges. The neighborhood’s pulse concentrates around the Pennsylvania Avenue SE corridor near the Sousa Bridge, where corner carryouts, barbershops, and small storefronts meet steady commuter traffic. Community touchstones include the Anacostia Community Museum, the Frederick Douglass National Historic Site, and the historic Anacostia Playhouse. Streets mix brick rowhomes with garden-style apartments, set against big-sky views from nearby river crossings. The Anacostia Riverwalk Trail and adjacent green spaces shape daily routines with long, linear paths and waterfront overlooks. Metro and bus lines along the corridor connect the area to downtown without changing its grounded, local feel.
