Property Description

Welcome to 4213 8th St NW, a beautifully presented Petworth residence that blends classic DC rowhouse character with thoughtful modern updates. Spanning three above-grade finished levels, this four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bathroom home offers generous living space, warm architectural details, and inviting spaces for both everyday living and entertaining. Rich hardwood floors, recessed lighting, exposed brick, and custom built-ins throughout create a distinctive sense of character, while the spacious living area is anchored by an eye-catching fireplace wall and an impressive wall of built-in shelving.

The open main level flows naturally between the living and dining areas and the updated kitchen, creating an ideal setting for hosting friends or enjoying a quiet evening at home. Upgraded cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a full pantry, and ample counter space give the kitchen a clean, contemporary feel that complements the home's original charm.

Upstairs, the second-floor primary suite provides a comfortable private retreat, complete with a walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom. The grand staircase is greeted by a skylight on the the top level that offers two additional generously sized bedrooms and a full bathroom, providing flexibility for guests, family, or a dedicated home office.

Across all three levels, the thoughtful layout offers room to spread out while maintaining a welcoming sense of home. Outdoor living is another standout feature, with a charming front porch that captures the neighborhood's classic residential feel and a spacious rear patio that offers room for outdoor dining, entertaining, gardening, and relaxing. Secure rear parking adds everyday convenience, a particularly valuable amenity in the city.

Significant recent improvements enhance the home's comfort, functionality, and long-term appeal. In 2024, the front porch's wooden support structure was completely rebuilt, new fencing was installed around the rear patio/driveway, and a new garage door was added. Further upgrades in 2026 include a full roof re-coating and installation of a new HVAC system. These thoughtful investments provide added peace of mind while complementing the home's timeless character and modern conveniences.

Situated in the heart of Petworth, this home places you near the neighborhood's restaurants, cafes, independent shops, and everyday conveniences along Georgia Avenue and Upshur Street. Nearby parks and recreation areas offer space to enjoy the outdoors, while the Georgia Avenue–Petworth Metro station provides convenient access to downtown DC and destinations throughout the region. Combining architectural character, modern comfort, versatile living space, and exceptional outdoor amenities, this inviting home offers a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the best of DC living.
