Property Description
4721 45th St NW offers an exceptionally rare chance to create a high-value home in one of DC's most sought-after neighborhoods, American University Park. This solid 1939 brick Colonial (approx. 1,700 SF) sits on an almost 5,000 SF lot-ideal for a substantial addition or complete new build. First time on the market in over 40 years, the property is livable but ready for a full renovation or redevelopment to meet modern buyer demands in this $1M+ market. Current layout includes 3 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, hardwood floors, basement, and deep rear yard. Estate sale - sold strictly as-is, no exceptions. Exempt from disclosures. Note: mold-like substance is present on basement walls. Outstanding location-quiet street, blocks to parks, shops, restaurants and a 15 minute walk to Tenleytown Metro. A rare entry point at $899,900 in AU Park with exceptional upside potential.
