About the Listing RLAH2 - 3090413

Welcome to 5123 8th St NW, a fully renovated rowhome in the heart of Petworth. This thoughtfully redesigned home spans three levels of elevated living, featuring high-end finishes, refined custom details, and a fully finished lower-level suite with its own entrance—ideal for guests, extended family, or rental income. Just reduced by $50,000, this is a rare opportunity to own a designer home with premium finishes and built-in rental potential at a significantly improved value. The main level boasts an open-concept layout flooded with natural light, wide-plank hardwood floors, and striking custom millwork that runs across all three levels of the home. The kitchen is a true showpiece with Calacatta quartz countertops, a dramatic waterfall island with built-in microwave, two-tone cabinetry featuring wood base cabinets, and a sleek pot filler over the gas range. Matte black hardware and designer lighting add style and contrast, while the accordion doors open to a private deck and fenced backyard with secure off-street parking. Upstairs, you'll find two spacious bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a versatile den that makes for the perfect home office or nursery. The primary suite features a spa-inspired en suite bathroom with dual vanities, backlit mirrors, and a rainfall shower wrapped in elegant marble tile. The convenience of laundry on the upper level adds to the home's modern functionality. The fully finished lower level—with a separate entrance—includes one large bedroom, a full bathroom, a second laundry area, and generous living and dining space. In Petworth, one-bedroom lower-level suites like this can earn $1,900–$2,200/month on Furnished Finder, $1,850–$2,100/month on long-term leases, or up to $100–$140/night on Airbnb—making this an excellent opportunity to offset your mortgage or generate passive income. Every detail of this home was carefully selected—from the designer powder room on the main level to the layered lighting, sleek matte black fixtures, and premium finishes throughout. Perfectly located near Metro, bus lines, parks, and the dining and shopping on Georgia Avenue, this home offers sophisticated city living with unmatched flexibility. Whether you're looking for a forever home or a smart investment, 5123 8th St NW delivers—and now at an even better price.
