Welcome to the Ontario at 2853 Ontario Road NW #316, a two-bed, one-bath home with 1,100+ square feet that pays homage to the landmark property’s history while exemplifying what it means to live in the city today. Past the Beaux-Arts exterior, #316 is a standout home with heart pine floors, a decorative fireplace, windows on three sides, Jeffersonian pocket windows that open onto an iron balcony, and soaring 10-foot ceilings crowned with moldings that evoke a bygone era. It is also practical–with central A/C, in-unit W/D, available on-site rental parking, upgraded appliances, an ample pantry, and a social kitchen. Airy and light-filled, the living and dining rooms flow seamlessly together, creating a connected space that’s as dynamic as it is welcoming. Throughout the home, sunlight streams in through six-foot, double-paned windows, highlighting the architectural detail inside along with the striking outdoor vistas. Two bedrooms offer charming views of the cityscape and the building's extensive three acres of manicured grounds. Steps away, the generous bathroom reveals hand-painted tile, a jetted tub and shower, and a sleek vanity. The washer and dryer are perfectly tucked away. Complementing everything #316 already has to offer is the Ontario itself. From the seven-day front desk to the panoramic rooftop deck, the state-of-the-art fitness center, the summer pavilion, the herb garden, and shared social room, the Ontario anticipates what you need. Additional perks for residents include pet-friendly policies, available rental parking, extra storage and neighbor-designed community events.

Perched atop three private acres in the heart of Lanier Heights, the Ontario fuses timeless Beaux-Arts elegance with the energy of city living. Ideally located at the crossroads of Mount Pleasant, Adams Morgan, and Woodley Park, residents enjoy immediate access to some of DC’s most cherished destinations. Wander through Rock Creek Park, visit the pandas at the National Zoo, get some fresh air at Walter Pierce Park, or shop for fresh seasonal produce at the weekly farmers' market. When you’re looking to dine out, the neighborhood’s vibrant restaurant scene offers something for every palate, with Reveler’s Hour, Elle, and Lapis standing out as local favorites. And when the rest of the city beckons, two Metro stations (red and green lines) are just a short walk away. A home that doesn’t compromise on location, amenities, or character, 2853 Ontario Road NW #316 is the ultimate place to start your next chapter.
