Federal brick, cobbled streets, and the towpath running west along the river.
Georgetown is older than the District itself — a tobacco port before Washington was drawn on paper — and the neighborhood has never lost the grid, the cobblestones, or the federal brick character that distinguishes it from every other block in the capital. The C&O Canal runs along its southern edge; the towpath continues all the way to Cumberland for anyone inclined to walk it.
The residences along O Street and Dumbarton and Q Street, west of Wisconsin Avenue, represent some of the finest extant federal-period architecture in the United States. Many have been in the same families for generations, and the ones in our portfolio tend to come to us not through listings but through relationships.
Georgetown’s rhythm is slower than the capital’s elsewhere. The shops close earlier. The residents walk more. The houses, when properly kept, are as quiet on a weeknight as they were in 1830.
