Listing details
Step into a piece of Washington’s history. Built in 1914, this Tenleytown townhouse is part of one of the last surviving rows from the city’s former Reno City community, a neighborhood that once stood where Fort Reno Park now spreads. It’s rare to find a home that offers not only modern comfort but also a tangible link to DC’s past. Inside, sunlight bounces off gleaming hardwood floors and original exposed brick, while the powder room and renovated kitchen bring things up to date with granite countertops, stainless appliances, and smart storage—including a new dishwasher (2024) and microwave (2025). Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms and a refreshed bath create an easy retreat, while the landscaped patio is your private escape for coffee, dinners, or downtime under the trees. The electrical system was upgraded in 2020, and the roof was replaced the same year. And right behind your home? Fort Reno Park, the highest natural point in Washington, DC. Known for its sweeping views and summer concerts, it’s your backyard playground. Just blocks from the Tenleytown-AU Metro, Whole Foods, Target, and local favorites like Coffee Nature, Saku Saku Bakery, and Guapo’s, this location is as walkable as it is connected. You’re a stone's throw away from the City Ridge development (Wegman’s, Equinox, Taste, and DC’s newest favorite restaurant, Acquabistecca) and Trader Joe’s is set to open by the end of the year. If you prefer driving, street parking is a breeze with ample parking consistently available on the neighborhood’s wide streets. With its heritage roots, modern upgrades, and unbeatable park access, this Tenleytown townhouse is where past and present meet beautifully.
