Property details

About 5206 Clay St NE

Charming and fully renovated, 5206 Clay Street NE is a 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home located in Washington, DC. Originally built in 1940, this property has been modernized to provide comfort and style. The home features a spacious layout with approximately 1,800 square feet of total interior living space, complemented by a finished basement for additional flexibility or potential rental. This home has been fitted with a new HVAC system and a new roof in 2021. Nestled on a 5,662-square-foot lot, the property includes a driveway with parking for three vehicles and lots of outdoor space with the opportunity for custom landscaping, additional privacy, or space for home expansion. Inside, you'll find updated finishes, ample natural light, and a thoughtful floor plan designed for modern living. Conveniently located in Deanwood within the District of Columbia Public Schools district. It is easily accessible via public transportation, a 15-minute walk to the Blue, Orange, and Silver lines from Benning Road, Minnestoa Avenue, or Deanwood Metro Stations and bus routes for the 96, W4, and U6, all a few stops away from the main road. This location allows you the peace of mind for ample parking and a peaceful homestead in a family neighborhood as well as access to the center of Washington, DC -- just a 15-minute drive from Capitol Hill, Eastern Market, NoMA, H Street NE, or 15-minute drive to the suburbs of Prince George's County near Woodmore Town Center and Prince George's Sports and Learning Complex. If you work in the District of Columbia, you will be grateful not to have a commute longer than 30 minutes. If you're hoping to stay closer to home, the Capitol View Neighborhood Library, Marvin Gaye Park, RFK Campus and Fields, and the Benning Stoddart Recreation Center are all within close distance. If you're a football fan, this home is perfectly located close to both FedEx Field and RFK Stadium (currently being renovated to be the new home of the Washington Commanders).
