“From red-tag to ready-to-love” A traditional brick DC rowhome exposed to a major fire and water event—DOB red tags, deep soot, and burned interiors tell the story of what once was. That’s the bad news. The good news: it’s the right kind of ugly—a straightforward renovation that lets you re-wire, re...-plumb, re-insulate, and re-build to 2025–2026 standards without undoing anyone else’s mistakes. Once complete, you’ll have a clean, code-compliant home with brand-new systems, fresh finishes, and lasting value. There’s even space for a one-bedroom, one-bathroom basement suite with egress. What Comes Next Picture a brand-new, fully rebuilt, all-new-systems rowhome in NE’s Langdon/Brentwood corridor—minutes from parks, retail, and the Red Line. A Classic DC brick charmer meets modern living: light-filled spaces, a designer kitchen, 2–3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and a finished lower level. All anchored by worry-free systems packaged for the next decade. Rare Off-Street Parking and Alley Access 2241 16th St NE sits on a quiet residential block with alley access and private parking—a rare DC amenity that immediately boosts resale value. You’re not just buying a shell; you’re securing a brick-built footprint with off-street convenience in a centrally located, fast-developing neighborhood. That alley access creates real design flexibility: Room for a rear deck, bump-out, or enclosed porch without changing the façade. A rear entry that supports a potential rentable basement suite. The potential for dual access—front entry for owners, rear for guests or tenants. Easier construction logistics: materials and crews can enter from the alley, minimizing disruption. Enjoy city life without the parking battle, just minutes from Langdon Park, Costco, and downtown DC. You’re transforming a fire-damaged structure into a premium turnkey home with a rare DC feature that buyers and tenants will pay for. Why This NE Location Works * Langdon Park and Chuck Brown Memorial Park offer fields, a pool, and a rec center - ideal for outdoor activity. * Close to Rhode Island Ave NE’s retail corridor, Dakota Crossing (Costco, Lowe’s, Chick-fil-A, Starbucks), and local cafés on 12th St NE and Monroe Street Market (9-minute drive). * Quick access to the Rhode Island Ave-Brentwood Metro (Red Line, .6 to .8 miles), Brookland CUA Metro (Red line 1.0-1.2 miles), multiple bus routes, Route 50, BW Parkway, and North Capitol Street. * Community Investment: The Woodridge Neighborhood Library, rebuilt in 2016 for $16.5 million, anchors a revitalized and well-connected neighborhood. In Langdon/Woodridge/Brentwood, renovated 2–3 bedroom rowhomes with updated systems and finished basements typically sell for $525,000–$575,000, while those with parking can reach $600,000+. With thoughtful design, alley parking, and modern construction, 2241 16th St NE is poised to go from red-tag shell to ready-to-love showpiece—delivering both neighborhood charm and lasting equity. This property isn’t just a house; it’s an investment in your future.
