Description

Opportunity Knocks on 6th Street SW A rare opportunity to own a fee simple brick townhome in the heart of Southwest Waterfront, tucked along a quiet, tree-lined street with assigned parking included. Freshly painted with refinished hardwood floors, this three-level, 3 bedroom, 2 bath home is move-in ready while still offering the perfect canvas for future updates or a full renovation over time. With fee simple ownership, there are no condo or co-op fees, just a modest annual HOA of $700 covering common area landscaping and neighborhood maintenance. The main level offers a comfortable and practical layout with generous living and dining spaces, warm hardwood flooring, great natural light, and a galley-style kitchen with ample cabinet and counter space. Sliding glass doors open to a private balcony overlooking mature trees and the peaceful community setting. Upstairs, the spacious primary bedroom includes a walk-in closet and en-suite bath, while the second bedroom offers impressive scale and flexibility. With its own SEPARATE FRONT ENTRANCE, kitchenette, and full bath, the lower level offers excellent potential as a private guest suite or income-producing space. It also provides generous additional living space and ample storage, making it equally well suited for a home office or recreation room. Below the private balcony is a spacious patio leading to the community courtyard, adding another layer of outdoor space and calm. Assigned parking is included just beyond, giving the home a secluded neighborhood feel in the middle of the city. From 712 6th Street SW, you are just blocks from Waterfront Metro, L’Enfant Plaza, Safeway, Arena Stage, the Southwest Duck Pond, and the Wharf, with restaurants, entertainment, water taxis, Nationals Park, Audi Field, the National Mall, and museums all close by. This is one of DC’s best-kept secrets, offering space, flexibility, outdoor living, parking, and fee simple ownership in an unbeatable Southwest Waterfront location.
