In 1890 Colonel Arthur E. Randle, a successful newspaper publisher decided to found a settlement east of the river which he called Congress Heights. Randle understood the Pennsylvania Ave bridge would bring rapid development east of the Anacostia River, and he successfully paved the way. Perfectly situated within moments of downtown and the beltway alike, this apartment building comprised of four two-bedroom apartments is primed for investor success. Completely renovated in 2020, every unit features quartz countertops, brand new flooring, along with an in-unit washer/dryer. We cordially invite you to tour this property at your convenience. The property is vacant however we are delighted to schedule virtual tours at your earliest convenience. Joseph Olatunde Seriki and Jessica Odrich are always happy to assist.
