About this home
Incredible Opportunity in Petworth – Classic DC Rowhome with Tons of Value and Priced for Renovation
Welcome to 4208 4th Street NW, a rarely available Petworth rowhome offering a fantastic opportunity for buyers, investors, or developers seeking a solid, spacious home with significant upside potential. Set on a quiet, tree-lined street in one of Washington, D.C.'s most popular neighborhoods, this three-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath property is being sold strictly as-is and is priced accordingly—offering exceptional value for those ready to bring their vision to life.
With over 2,000 square feet of total interior space across three levels, including a full unfinished basement, this property offers the ideal canvas for a full cosmetic renovation. The existing structure retains much of its original charm, including beautiful hardwood floors, high ceilings, and period architectural details, all waiting to be restored or reimagined. Whether you're dreaming of an open-concept main floor, a chef’s kitchen, or a fully finished lower level with extra bedrooms or a home office, the layout allows for maximum flexibility and creativity.
The main level features a traditional living room and separate dining room, both filled with natural light from large front and rear-facing windows. The kitchen, located at the rear of the home, is functional but primed for modernization—offering direct access to the backyard and garage. Upstairs, you'll find three well-proportioned bedrooms and a full bath, along with original trim and molding that can be preserved for character. The basement, with high ceilings and walk-out access, provides ample room to expand the living space, add a bathroom, or create a fully independent in-law suite or rental unit.
Outside, the property boasts a deep backyard with alley access and a detached garage—a rare and valuable feature in the city. The lot offers the possibility of additional outdoor living space, gardening, or expansion down the line.
Situated just a few blocks off Georgia Avenue and only minutes to the Georgia Ave-Petworth Metro Station (Green and Yellow Lines), the location is ideal for commuters and city dwellers alike. Enjoy all that Petworth has to offer—grab pizza from the beloved Timber Pizza Company, coffee from Qualia Coffee, groceries from Yes! Organic Market, or explore Upshur Street’s growing restaurant scene. The home is also close to Grant Circle, Upshur Park, and President Lincoln’s Cottage, offering a blend of historic charm and modern convenience.
This home is more than just a renovation project—it’s a chance to build long-term equity in a vibrant, growing community. With homes nearby selling at significantly higher prices post-renovation, 4208 4th Street NW presents a compelling opportunity to create something truly special while investing in your future.
