One of the terms most commonly used by Realtors when marketing a DC Mid-city listing is "Close to Whole Foods." 

In our thinking there are two kinds of close to Whole Foods……one is the spring Sunday afternoon eight-block stroll from U Street……the other is the two over-loaded (reusable) bags of groceries on a cold and blistery January night close.

While Cooper Lewis and the Metropole get the gold star for being on the same block as the P Street Whole Foods, there are several other condo developments that qualify for the two over-loaded (reusable) bags of groceries on a cold and blistery January night close including:

• 1441 Rhode Island
• Berret School Lofts
• Church Place
• Citta 50
• Cooper Lewis
• Lofts 14
• Lofts 14 Two
• Logan Mansions
• Matrix
• Metro
• Metropole
• Q14
• Rainbow Lofts
• Saxon Court

There are not many condo options more sought after than a two bedroom loft on the 1400 block of Church Street in Logan Circle. 

Often described was DC's loft district, Church Street buildings combine the gritty charm of early 20th century industrial buildings with the chic modern finishes of the 21st century.  Church Street is where exposed ductwork, industrial windows and concrete ceilings are purposefully married to sleek European cabinetry, stainless appliances and marble/limestone surfaces.

The 1400 block of Church Street is located in the thick of DC's famed Auto Row which dominated the storefronts of 14th Street in Logan Circle.  Several of the industrial buildings along Church Street provided ancillary repair services to the blossoming automobile industry.  Today, we are fortunate that these industrial-era buildings remained intact through periods of neighborhood decline and unrest including the riots following the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King.

Currently, there are three two-bedroom condos for sale in buildings located in the 1400 block of Church Street including a 2 BR / 2 BA / 979 SF unit listed for $689,000 at Saxon Court.  Here is a resource to view all the active listings in the 1400 block of Church Street.  If you need assistance, our TTR Sotheby's office is just around the corner and DC Condo Boutique team members are familiar with all the Church Street active listings.
