Savvy Buyer Alert! This is your chance to snag one of the best deals in DC—a stylish STUDIO condo that lives like a one-bedroom, priced to please and boasting lower monthly condo fees than the official one-bedroom units. Welcome to The Towers, where you can enjoy the full suite of luxury amenities without the premium price tag. This lovingly maintained and updated, cleverly designed studio is just a few square feet shy of qualifying as a legal one-bedroom—and yet it functions like one in all the best ways. With an HOA fee lower than many comparable units and a smart layout, this gem is perfect for the buyer looking to maximize space and savings. Inside, you’ll find: -A renovated kitchen with sleek custom quartz countertops, contemporary slate-colored backsplash + floors, and custom paint. -Freshly painted living area and ready for your personal touch. -TWO oversized walk-in closets (yes, really!) for all your storage dreams. -Beautiful, easy-care tile flooring that mimics hardwood floors throughout the living space. -New kitchen fan (2025), newer stainless-steel appliances, and a refreshed bath. Got renovation ideas but a tight budget? Ask the listing agent about lenders who offer renovation financing options that might be able to be rolled into your mortgage—limiting the out-of-pocket surprises. Dreaming of more kitchen storage? Add 12" depth cabinets and over-fridge shelving/cabinetry to create the perfect space to entertain. Love the community vibe? So did the seller. The Towers offers a concierge service, a pool, gym, package room, and a calm, residential feel—just minutes from the city buzz. Prime Location Highlights: -Zip to Virginia in a flash—ideal for commuters -Convenient bus access to downtown DC -Just half a mile to American University—walk, bike, or scooter to class in minutes -Only 4 miles to Bethesda for a weekend brunch or Target run Parking? Easy. While spaces are sold separately, there’s ample street parking and eligibility for DC residential permits. For the buyer looking for a future investment property after 12 months of owner occupancy, this condo has an EXCELLENT rental history. Most recently rented at $2,000 per month, it consistently attracts wonderful tenants who adore the unit, complex amenities, and neighborhood. Condo Rules in a Nutshell: No pets (except service animals). Must be owner-occupied for the first 12 months. Minimum 12-month leases. Parking sold separately—but street options abound.

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.
