Set in the heart of historic LeDroit Park, 1829 5th Street Northwest delivers a rare mix of location, scale, and income. Across from the Michelin-awarded restaurant, The Royal, this distinctive Victorian features three fully independent metered units, a total of seven bedrooms, 7 ½ baths and two rooftop decks with clear views of the Capitol. The property has been well maintained, with substantial improvements in 2025, allowing it to serve as both a turn-key investment and a comfortable home for an owner-occupant. Each unit includes an updated kitchen with full-size appliances, in-unit laundry, and bright living spaces that flow into large private sunrooms with rear egress. The penthouse spans two levels and was previously selected as an Airbnb Plus rental. It includes three bedrooms and an open living area centered around an eat-in kitchen. Upstairs, the lounge and wet bar open to a dining deck that links by a spiral stair to a large second rooftop terrace. Together, the two outdoor levels create a continuous space with spectacular 360 degree views. Recent upgrades include a new roof, new HVAC systems, updated flooring, and refreshed interiors throughout. An assigned off-street parking space adds everyday convenience. With immediate access to Shaw, Bloomingdale, the Green and Yellow Lines, and a wide mix of neighborhood restaurants, this is one of LeDroit Park’s most walkable pockets. With its strong history of income stability, flexible layout, and standout rooftop views, 1829 5th Street NW is a rare opportunity to secure a proven multi-unit property in one of the city’s most character-rich neighborhoods. The property will be delivered vacant, offering flexibility for both investors and owner-occupants.
