A rare find in one of DC's most sought-after zip codes, this studio occupies the second floor of a handsome 1939 Beaux Arts building sitting at the crossroads of Columbia Heights, Adams Morgan, and Mount Pleasant — three of the city's most dynamic neighborhoods all within easy reach. Flooded with natural light, the unit has been updated throughout — gleaming wood floors underfoot, a sleek kitchen outfitted with stainless appliances, front-loading laundry tucked in-unit, and a walk-in closet that makes the most of every square foot. Condo fees fold in gas, heat, water, trash, and common area upkeep, so carrying costs stay lean and predictable. Cyclists will appreciate the on-site bike storage; dog owners will love the shared courtyard with a dedicated dog run. The building welcomes pets on a case-by-case basis. Groceries and errands are handled within a short radius — Trader Joe's, Giant, and Target are all nearby — while Meridian Hill Park offers a green escape just steps from your door. The restaurants of Mount Pleasant and the nightlife of U Street are both within easy reach, with two Metro stations each under a mile away. Whether you're planting roots or adding to a portfolio, this is city living done right
