1401 Columbia Rd NW

A four-story Beaux-Arts condominium built in 1913, Adams Court combines historic architectural detail with practical multi-family living. The masonry façade and landscaped gated courtyard announce a classic early-20th-century presence while the interior common areas have been refreshed: renovated lobby and hallways, elevator access, secure entry with callbox, package concierge and indoor bike storage. Units are primarily one- and two-bedroom layouts plus studios, often featuring high ceilings, original hardwood floors, crown moldings, transom windows and built-ins; many residences include private balconies and open or traditional floor plans. Building services and conveniences emphasize daily life: a shared laundry room for bulky items, additional rentable storage, bulk package lockers, and an on-site turf dog run with seating. Exterior amenities include sidewalks, street lighting and a professionally landscaped courtyard with seating and bike racks. Management policies skew toward community living—pet friendly, investor-eligible, FHA-approved—with resident-focused rules and modest condo fees that typically cover water, sewer and trash. Located in Columbia Heights, the property sits one block from the Metro and within immediate walking distance of grocery stores, retail at DC USA, restaurants and transit, offering an urban, walkable neighborhood lifestyle.
