1736 Willard St NW

The Willard Condominium is a five-story, late-19th-century residential building constructed in 1890 and set on a tree-lined Dupont Circle street near Logan Circle and U Street. Architecturally it presents period details — a Beaux-Arts entrance, marble lobby, and tall, textured windows — paired with interior updates across individual units. The collection of studios and one-bedroom homes typically feature hardwood floors, built-ins, wood-burning fireplaces with mantels, crown moldings, tall ceilings and sizable windows that bring ample daylight; many units have updated galley or open-plan kitchens with granite or quartz counters, stainless appliances, and in-unit washers and dryers. Common-sense conveniences include an elevator, exterior lighting and sidewalks; select residences offer reserved parking or private storage. The building’s pet- and lease-friendly policies, relatively low condo fees that often include water and trash, and a compact service footprint mean maintenance is straightforward rather than full-service. Location is a core attribute: steps to 17th–18th Street dining and shops, U Street and Dupont Metro access, Meridian Hill Park, and neighborhood green spaces such as S Street Dog Park, making daily errands, nightlife and transit highly walkable.
