Vetted by our experts
Located in Washington DC’s trendy Navy Yard neighbourhood – just a stone’s throw from the Anacostia River – this bright, contemporary apartment housed in a building dating back to the 1930s is an ideal spot to soak up a cool corner of the city away from the tourist crowds. From the moment you walk through the lush green communal courtyard, you’ll feel the relaxed ambience of your easy-going surroundings. Inside your home, large windows fill the main living space in light, with a comfortable blue sofa inviting you to kick back with a glass of wine or curl up with a good book while admiring the leafy views. We love the decorative touches here too, like the arty clocks above...
We promise expert-vetted homes, total transparency and exceptional service.
