3540 Rock Creek Church Rd NW

A low-rise, four-story masonry walk-up constructed in 1946, this boutique Washington DC building contains primarily one-bedroom flats arranged around straightforward corridors and stair access. The exterior is modestly detailed with period brickwork, street lighting, sidewalks and a fenced planted front yard that opens directly to the avenue. Interiors reflect a mix of vintage and renovated elements: hardwood and maple floors, crown moldings, oversized windows, traditional and open floor plans, galley and upgraded gourmet kitchens with granite counters and stainless steel appliances, in-unit washer/dryer combos in many units, and a range of built-in storage including large basement rooms. Shared building amenities are compact but practical — an exercise room/fitness area, bike storage, laundry facilities, package/storage rooms and assigned parking for select units. The property operates as a pet-friendly condominium community with low monthly fees that often cover basic utilities. Located on a busy corridor near the Columbia Heights/Petworth edge, the building places residents within short walking distance of multiple Metro stops, grocery stores, restaurants, coffee shops and neighborhood green spaces, supporting a pedestrian, transit-oriented urban lifestyle.
