The upper unit, currently available for owner occupancy, has multiple skylights in the primary bedroom and soaring ceilings. The lower unit, currently rented, benefits from a private patio perfect for summer evenings.The unbeatable location puts you at the intersection of Dupont Circle, Logan Circle and the U Street Corridor on one of DC's most coveted tree-lined streets.
