507 49th Pl NE, Washington, DC 20019

Close to public transportation. On a hill overlooking a sprawling Civil War era monument (Fort DuPont Park). Situated in a densely tree laden environment. Perched above a minor league baseball field for the Nationals Major League Baseball franchise. Large gated garden with a dogon (gazebo), a arvalada (greenhouse), and a goldfish pond. Exotic shrubs and fruit trees. Quiet oasis in a rapidly changing urban setting. One minute walk to nearest bus stop. Ten minute walk to Blue Line Benning Road Metro, 15 minute walk to Orange Line at Minnesota Avenue Metro. Longtime residents call this location the Holy Hill. This property is the oldest house on the hill. Marvin Gaye, who grew up in this neighborhood, has a bicycle trail named in his honor, that runs along a brook (thus the name: Hillbrook). Martin Luther King Nature Center is five minutes away by foot. Abundant nature and a scantuary for birds and wildlife found nowhere else in the city. Close to Capitol Hill, H Street, Downtown, yet far far away. Kenilworth Aquatic Gardeners is a ten minute bike ride away. Spectacular views including the National Cathedral. A slice of heaven in one of Washington DC s best kept secrets.
