Renovated in 2016–2017, the home features 5" plank, teak-stained white oak floors, polished concrete on the main level, exposed brick accents, and oversized skylights that flood the interior with natural light. The open-concept living, dining, and gourmet kitchen spaces flow seamlessly to a private, walled outdoor retreat—ideal for both entertaining and everyday relaxation—with the added convenience of secure off-street parking.

The home has had a series of meaningful upgrades that enhance both efficiency and peace of mind. A SunPower X21 5.18kW solar system generates meaningful annual income while keeping utility costs low, complemented by a newer roof and skylights, upgraded bathrooms with refined finishes, 3M impact-resistant film on all ground-level windows and a complete ADT alarm system, and a new hot water heater and refrigerator as well. Additional highlights include generous built-in storage rarely found in DC rowhomes, especially on the upper level and in the primary suite.

Located just moments from the best of Shaw, you’re a short walk to neighborhood dining, shopping, and everyday conveniences, with easy access to the Mt. Vernon Square Metro. Beyond the home itself, Ridge Street offers a true sense of community—with annual block parties, Halloween street closures, and a connected neighborhood feel that’s increasingly rare in the city.
