About 5128 5th St NW

WETBAR INCLUDED WITH FULL PRICE OFFER Welcome to 5128 5th St NW, where timeless Petworth charm meets high-quality modern construction. This stunning 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath rowhome has been fully gutted down to the original brick shell and completely rebuilt with top-to-bottom upgrades — including all-new framing, electrical wiring, plumbing, HVAC system, roof, windows, insulation, and drywall. Nothing was left untouched. Step inside and immediately notice the craftsmanship: wide-plank oak flooring, high ceilings, designer lighting, and clean, elegant lines throughout. The open-concept main level was thoughtfully designed for entertaining and day-to-day comfort, anchored by a chef-inspired kitchen featuring Calacatta quartz countertops, a waterfall island with built-in microwave, soft-close cabinetry, sleek gold fixtures, and modern backsplash accents. The second level features three bedrooms, including a luxurious primary suite with custom walk-in closet and a spa-inspired en suite bath outfitted with a frameless glass shower, LED mirror, and beautiful porcelain tile. A skylight above the stairwell adds natural light throughout the upper level, and a full-size washer and dryer are conveniently located in the hallway. The fully finished lower level includes a large rec room, full bedroom and bathroom, a second laundry closet, and a private rear entrance — offering flexible use for guests, a home office, or rental income potential. If desired, a simple wall addition can convert the rec room into a fifth bedroom — the developer can assist with this customization upon request. Enjoy outdoor living with a brand-new deck, covered patio, and private fenced backyard. Secure roll-up garage door parking adds convenience and peace of mind. Located on a quiet, residential block in sought-after Petworth, you're just minutes from Grant Circle, neighborhood parks, Metro access, and the area’s best local dining, retail, and entertainment. Whether you're looking for a forever home, multi-generational layout, or income-generating potential, 5128 5th St NW offers the rare combination of historic DC character and true new-construction peace of mind.
