Welcome to The Varnum, a stunning new urban oasis comprising four luxurious residential units located in the heart of Petworth – one of Washington DC’s most thriving neighborhoods. The Varnum offers residents the perfect balance of sophistication, comfort, and convenience, with three one-level homes and a two-level penthouse boasting grand floor plans ranging from 900 to 1,200 square feet.

Designed with meticulous attention to detail, each unit at The Varnum boasts exquisite finishes and features, including imported European cabinetry and windows. The two-level penthouse is particularly noteworthy, with its stunning outdoor spaces – three in total – offering breathtaking views of the city skyline.

The neighborhood has good accessibility, with various primary streets and avenues for vehicular traffic providing convenient access to the central business district. The 16th Street corridor is a primary north-south thoroughfare.
