1807 California St NW

The Winchester is a small, four-story colonial-era condominium built in 1909 and set on a quiet, tree-lined block near the border of Kalorama Triangle and Adams Morgan in Washington, DC. The masonry façade and traditional massing reflect early 20th-century townhouse-scaled design; interior units often feature tall ceilings, hardwood floors, crown moldings and original details such as wood-burning fireplaces updated alongside modern mechanicals. Residences are primarily two-bedroom layouts with open or traditional floor plans, renovated kitchens with stone counters and stainless appliances, in-unit washer/dryers in many homes, custom built-ins and restored millwork. Common elements are modest and neighborhood-focused: a planted streetscape with sidewalks and street lighting, a communal bicycle/storage room and individual storage lockers in the basement. Building-level services are limited; condominium fees typically cover basic common-area maintenance and utilities like water and sewer, and the association permits small pets. Deeded parking is available on some units and rental parking is common nearby. The Winchester’s scale, historic character and proximity to Adams Morgan, U Street and Dupont Circle make it a walkable, transit-accessible option for residents who want historic details with contemporary updates.
