1839 5th St NW unit 3

This penthouse of a boutique apartment building combines the old-world charm of Queen Anne days and cotrivances of our high-tech era. Located in the heart of Shaw/LeDroit Park, it is steps from the Metro (Green Line), clubs, gyms, Whole Foods, bars, eateries, coffee shops and Howard Theater. (The Royal is right out the front door.) Living room is fronted by a lovely bay window and bathed in afternoon sun. Kitchen has been updated with an ice-making fridge, gas stove, dishwasher, quartz counter-tops and breakfast bar. Bathroom has a claw-shaped tub for soaking as well as showering. Bedrooms vare medium-sized, big enough for queen-sized beds but not vast spaces where you want to linger all day. Roof deck out the rear door and a few steps up offers killer views of DC rooftops for miles around. Unit contains in-unit w/d, hardwood floors and energy efficient systems--on-demand hot water heater and central air and heat. Utilities not included. Off-street parking is available in the rear of the building for $175 a month. Absolutely no smoking or pets allowed. One year lease and good credit and good references required. Owner is a licensed real estate broker. Investors Real Estate, Inc. EHO
