This elegant condo is one of the most attractive units in the historic Downing and Vaux Building, named for the original building's "star architects" Calvert Vaux and Andrew Downing, ca. 1850. The Condominium complex dominates the corner of 30th and Q Streets in the heart of the Georgetown's East Village. The present owner engaged renowned architect Douglas Rixey, AIA, to design the sophisticated interiors while preserving the condo's legacy and character. The fine interiors are stunning backdrops for modern and/or antique furnishings. The plentiful wall spaces offer charming opportunities for art, photography, and other special items. The custom kitchen, bathrooms, and sleek cabinetry are perfectly proportioned for the condo. Updated hardwood floors, HVAC, and LED lighting add additional luster to the flexible floor plan. Three bedrooms offer multiple purposes, such as a den and/or office, as is presently shown. The primary bedroom has an en suite bathroom with two vanities. Other outstanding features include a working fireplace, a separate laundry room, large closets throughout, a cedar walk-in closet, bicycle storage on site, and private storage in the building's service area. Two sets of French doors and transoms open to the balcony facing west, and bring light into the dining and kitchen areas. Additional windows face eastern and northern exposures, bringing three sides of natural light. Unit B-21 shares an elevator and staircase landing with only one other condo. This unique and exciting opportunity will be shown in a THREE DAY OPEN HOUSE: Saturday, January 20, 1:00 to 5:00; Sunday, January 21, 1:00 - 5:00; and Monday, January 22, noon to 4:00. Brokers and buyers are welcome.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.

Listing Agents and Buyer’s Agents represent the two sides of a real estate transaction. As a Seller of a home, your Listing Agent represents your interests and will advise, consult and follow your instructions to sell your property at the best possible price and terms.
If you’re a Buyer, a Buyer’s Agent advises you throughout the transaction, helping you get the best deal and advocating for you. The Buyer’s Agent commission is also paid by the Seller, so the Buyer never sees a bill for their service.
Many first time Buyers believe they can work without a Buyer’s Agent and instead use the same agent as the Seller. When both Buyer and Seller use the same agent, known as “dual agency”, it can sometimes save on fees, but it also puts the agent in a conflict of interest, not fully representing either party.
