Extraordinary DC Neighborhood – Brightwood!
In the shadow of the legendary Walter Reed Hospital and cradled by the serene forested parklands of Rock Creek Park Brightwood is ideally sited and considered one of Washington’s best neighborhoods. It also continues to gain popularity with prospective homeowners. The western side of the neighborhood is bordered by Rock Creek Park and Crestwood, one of the, if not the premier neighborhoods on the upper east side of the park. The William H. G. Fitzgerald Tennis Stadium and adjacent tennis courts, playground, soccer fields, Cater Barron Amphitheatre and Fort Stevens Recreation Center are all within the area.
Local shopping is located all along Georgia Ave. and residents have easy access to Silver Spring, Takoma Park, the Beltway and Downtown areas by way of Georgia Ave. and North Capitol St.
This residence offers the best of all worlds. Around the corner from acres of park trails, this home is just a short jaunt to favorite city spots!
