Income-configured rowhouses in Columbia Heights don’t come up often, and they almost never come with the rental strategy already proven. This one does. The bedrooms have drawn steady long-term tenants in the $1, 100–$1, 200 range and performed as hosted short-term rentals — demand that shows up as a pattern, not a pitch. We’ll put the full operating documentation in your hands so you can see it for yourself, rather than take our word for it. The location does the rest. A Metro stop on the Green and Yellow lines and the DC USA retail center sit at the doorstep, with downtown, Howard University, U Street, and Adams Morgan minutes away — and MedStar Washington Hospital Center just up the road, a steady source of traveling nurses and medical staff who need furnished housing close to work. It’s the kind of address that keeps rooms full year-round, which is exactly why both nightly guests and long-term renters keep coming back. What makes it genuinely rare: DC limits short-term rentals to owner-occupied homes, so a property already configured and proven to produce — where every bedroom earns — is not something that lists every week. It’s also been freshly turned over: repainted throughout, with new hardware, updated light fixtures, and new shower fittings and faucets in every bath, so there’s nothing to fix before it starts earning. Operators see the move right away: live in one room and let the rest carry the mortgage, or lease them all for a steadier return. Either way the building works for you, with the potential to generate $50, 000 or more annually at full occupancy. And the upside isn’t capped there. A full basement with nine-foot ceilings offers clear renovation potential for an additional income unit down the line — future value the next owner can unlock on their own timeline. The documentation is ready the moment you ask for it.
