This single-floor residence showcases a practical and well-organized layout spread across several connected rooms. The main living areas are defined by warm, honey-toned hardwood floors that extend throughout, reflecting natural light and lending the space a classic, inviting character. White walls and flush-mount ceiling fixtures keep the aesthetic clean and neutral. The primary living room is generously proportioned, featuring a cast-iron radiator for heating and a window-mounted air conditioning unit, providing year-round climate control. Multiple windows allow natural light to filter in, brightening the room considerably. An open doorway connects this area to an additional room, also finished with the same hardwood flooring, a radiator, and windows equipped with blinds — suitable for use as a bedroom or secondary living space. A closet with built-in shelving and hooks is accessible from this area. The galley-style kitchen is efficiently designed, featuring white cabinetry, a gas range, a full-size refrigerator, light stone-toned countertops, and tile flooring. It opens directly toward the living area, maintaining a connected flow. The full bathroom is finished in light, neutral tones with tile flooring, a white vanity with under-cabinet storage, a mirrored medicine cabinet, a bathtub, and a well-lit vanity fixture above — completing this straightforward and functional residence.

Legendary Americans from Frederick Douglass to Woodrow Wilson have called Dupont Circle home at various points over the past two centuries, and it continues to be a highly desirable place to live. The historic architecture of the neighborhood (particularly in the Victorian-era rowhouses) contributes to a distinctly European flair in much of Dupont Circle. This, combined with the presence of numerous foreign embassies and countless international restaurants, creates an unparalleled cosmopolitan atmosphere.
The dining scene also includes a vast selection of more traditional eateries, low-key coffee shops, and convenient grocery stores, giving most folks the option to pick up a quick bite to eat or a week’s worth of necessities with ease. For off hours, museums and galleries are close at hand, and the eclectic nightlife offerings span from alternative rock venues to glitzy clubs to high-end cocktail bars.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
