Rarely does a Georgetown property offer this combination of history, setting, garden, parking, and potential. Located in the heart of Georgetown’s coveted East Village, 3028 R Street, NW is a classic interior row house with an inviting front porch and unobstructed views. For nearly 50 years, this special home has been the residence and creative haven of a beloved artist. Now, a remarkable opportunity awaits the next owner. With four bedrooms and two full baths, the home offers a wonderful foundation for renovation and re-imagination. A separate apartment with its own private entrance provides exceptional flexibility—ideal for a rental, guest or in-law suite, or au pair/nanny accommodations. The property’s deep rear garden is a true Georgetown rarity and includes private parking. There is also potential to expand the existing square footage, subject to the necessary approvals, creating an opportunity to transform the property into an exceptional custom residence while preserving its distinctive character and enviable park-facing setting. Just steps from the best of Georgetown, the location offers remarkable walkability to restaurants, boutiques, cafés, parks, and the waterfront. For those with vision and creativity, 3028 R Street offers the opportunity to build upon its history and create a Georgetown residence that is entirely their own. This property does need a complete renovation.
