Dupont Circle Homes and Condos for Sale

With its tree-lined streets, numerous public parks and gardens, and distinctive row houses, Dupont Circle is often recognized as one of Washington D.C.'s most beautiful neighborhoods. Despite being home to a number of embassies and historic mansions, Dupont Circle retains an air of informality with a vibrant artsy community spirit.

Dupont Circle is the name of this DC neighborhood as well as its main traffic circle. The latter connects three major arteries: Connecticut Avenue, Massachusetts Avenue, and New Hampshire Avenue. The circle is also a park. Dominating this green space is a fountain, formally known as the Rear Admiral Samuel Francis Dupont Memorial Fountain. 

WHAT TO EXPECT

The charm of the old-world with the vitality of the new-world.

DC’s Dupont Circle neighborhood is eclectic. Its architecture spans the robber baron Gilded Age to trendy 21st condo renovations. It’s a little like visiting your eccentric Great Aunt Matilda. Some things seem a tad outdated and moldy. But it’s also a real community—home to independent retailers, restaurants, bookstores, tea stores, galleries, Tarot card spiritualists, and a farmers market.

THE LIFESTYLE

Living easily by having access to arts and entertainment close by.

Today, the residents of Dupont Circle are mostly college-educated professionals under the age of 40. There are also a large number of interns and international employees working in nearby embassies, federal agencies and the World Bank. Arguably one of DC's most popular places to live, Dupont Circle is a hub for the hip, international, and the young at heart. With some of the city's most beautiful homes lining its leafy streets, Dupont offers neighborhood residents a walkable lifestyle that is hard to match anywhere else in DC.

The European lifestyle of Dupont Circle's residents is made possible through its intermixed retail and residential spaces, as well as its pedestrian-friendly atmosphere. Many residents choose not to own a car; having convenient transportation options available nearby.

WHAT NOT TO EXPECT

Quiet zone and easy parking.

The neighborhood is now a very popular place to live for young people without cars and without children, as well as by the wealthy elite who can afford some of the highest home prices in the city. In the 1980s and 1990s several clubs, bars, and shops opened in the area, furthering the gentrification process.

Street parking is scarce, and limited to 2 hours during the daytime on weekdays. There are several parking garages, with daily rates in the $15-$20 range. Late at night, you can find street parking in the deserted business district just south of M St in the West End.

THE MARKET

The majority of buildings in this area are old townhouses, condos and apartment buildings.

Many of the neighborhood’s elegant homes and former apartment buildings are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. These residences have been converted into condos, inns and galleries. You will see some of the most distinguished edifices. The late 19th century architectural styles, such as Queen Anne and Romanesque, dominate along with 20th century Revival.

Dupont Circle is also a walker’s dream. You simply get off the Dupont Circle Metro Station and are plunged into city life. There is nothing better than to be a flaneur. Wander aimlessly down Q Street NW and marvel at regal row houses.

YOU’LL FALL IN LOVE WITH

Browsing the neighborhood's bookstores and small shops after work can be a great way to unwind.

People doing impromptu yoga, playing chess and walking their dogs at this social circle which is named after its neighborhood, are some activities seen.

Exploring Dupont Circle is a great idea to discover dozens of bistros, bars, boutiques and museums, as well as the vibrant stretch along 17th Street famed for its gay-owned businesses.

Enjoying a Sunday during a stay in DC’s Dupont Circle neighborhood can consist in shopping at the open-air market. Established in 1997, the Farmers Market operates year-round. Dupont Circle Farmer’s Market is one of nearly 30 markets that FRESHFARM operates in DC, Maryland, and Virginia. It is a nonprofit that promotes sustainable agriculture and improves food access and equity in the Mid-Atlantic region.

 One of the best ways to learn about Dupont Circle’s revered architectural past is to book a walking tour. Dupont Circle’s crown jewel is the Cairo Flats Building. Located at 1615 Q Street NW, the 12-floor Cairo opened in 1894.

Neighborhood Block
