We are pleased to offer for sale 1830 Columbia Road NW, a beautifully renovated property that will be delivered vacant at closing. 1830 Columbia Road NW was acquired by ownership in shell condition and underwent a full gut renovation from 2018-2020. The property is comprised of a ground-level retail/office unit connected to a rear garage and an unfinished sublevel, above which is a three-level residential unit with a roof deck as well. This three-level residential unit, plus roof deck, represented the bulk of the $1.5M-renovation completed by ownership. While this space is incredibly well suited for residential use, it also lays out extremely well for boutique office use by a professional service firm such as a lawyer, accountant, architect, general contractor, or other consultant. Additionally, at 3,039 square feet across three levels and a roof deck enclosure plus two outdoor spaces, there is ample space for live/work use within the residential unit as well. Ownership was mindful of restoring the building while maintaining its original character, adding an industrial-modern interior design—including a completely restored facade, exposed brick, a brand-new 326-square-foot rear deck, and a 457-square-foot roof deck. The original wood floors were repaired throughout the building, except for the top floor, where a new pine floor was installed with additional soundproofing. The renovation also included completely new mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems; two forced-air HVAC systems; a concrete pad; the installation of a larger one-inch water line; a kitchen; all bathrooms; doublepane insulated windows, including enhanced soundproofing along the Columbia Road side; exterior brick repointing; new interior brick; a partial roof replacement; gutters; and new ironwork in the front and back. Lastly, all life safety systems have been upgraded, with a brand-new sprinkler system installed throughout the building, including the rear garage. 1830 Columbia Rd NW is located in the Adams Morgan neighborhood of Washington, D.C. Adams Morgan is a vibrant and eclectic neighborhood, known for its lively atmosphere, diverse cultural influences, and historic charm. Located just north of Dupont Circle, it features colorful row houses, international cuisine, and a bustling nightlife scene centered around 18th Street NW. It is well-served by Metrobus routes connecting it to nearby areas like Woodley Park, Columbia Heights, and Downtown Washington, D.C. Many residents and visitors also use the Woodley Park-Zoo/Adams Morgan and Columbia Heights Metro stations, which are a short walk or bus ride away.
