1101 3RD ST SW #502, Washington, DC, 20024

Perfect starter 1 bed/1 bath freshly painted condo/Pied-à-terre move-in ready in Waterfront Tower, the historic I.M. Pei-designed mid-century building in the heart of booming Southwest. Just steps from the Metro, the 1960 Waterfront Tower is a full-service building that was redesigned by Torti Gallas & Partners and Bernstein Companies in an eco-conscious fashion with low-VOC paint, recycled materials and high-efficiency systems and glass. Condo fee includes gas, water, heating and AC along with gym, concierge, security, on-site management, large outdoor greenspace/ pet area and party room with kitchen. The unit with walls of glass is located on the back of the building and overlooks the backyard greenspace. Waterfront Tower is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and noted in James Goode's seminal book on DC's "Best Addresses." The sellers are currently using the unit as an office. Within just a few blocks you can enjoy one of the most dynamic parts of the city, including Arena Stage, the restaurants and music venues of the booming Wharf, Audi Field (the home soccer stadium for D.C. United), Nationals Park, The Yards Park, a public library, schools, churches, parks, the Southwest Heritage Trail, marinas, cruise boats, and water taxis. Waterfront Tower is also within walking distance to the National Mall, Smithsonian Institution museums, the new Rubell Museum DC, the Capitol, the Tidal Basin, and L’Enfant Plaza as well as the annual Southwest Waterfront Fireworks Festival, which concludes the National Cherry Blossom Festival. Waterfront Tower is conveniently located to all the major highways — 395, 295, Route 1, and the George Washington Memorial Parkway, and with easy access to Georgetown and Capitol Hill. In addition to the Metro, within one block you will find Safeway with Starbucks, CVS, an organic cleaner, restaurants, Enterprise Rent-A-Car, a Capital Bikeshare station, and the Southwest DC Community Farmers Market (open from spring to fall).
