Recently, 1817 Vernon Street NW has been transformed into three outstanding condominiums. The three units have been constructed with superior craftsmanship and attention to every detail. This exclusive address now comprises two 2-bedroom units and one 3-bedroom unit. Each includes natural hardwood floors, central a/c, in unit W/D, high ceilings and outdoor space. Additionally, units 2 and 3 will include on-site parking.

1817 Vernon St NW was originally constructed in 1901 in the Queen Anne style. The lead architect was the local firm of Kennedy and Davis, Kennedy who designed the entire row of six homes from 1813 to 1823 Vernon Street NW, creating a distinct and classic uniformity. The neighborhood is filled with the popular architectural styles of the time including Classical Revival, Romanesque, Colonial Revival and Beaux Arts. A few buildings where these styles are clearly visible are The Wyoming, The Norwood, The Netherlands and the former Chinese Legation at the corner of 19th and Vernon.

1817 Vernon Street NW was once part of the large estate of poet and diplomat Joel Barlow. Barlow purchased the entire region in the early 1800s and is credited with originally naming the location "Kalorama" from the Greek word meaning fine view. 1817 Vernon Street NW is around the corner from the ever popular 18th Street NW, in Adams Morgan. In 1890, for the first time, an electric street car made it’s way up the steep incline of 18th Street NW helping to pave the way for the neighborhoods growing popularity and convenience. In October, 1917, the affluent and chic Knickerbocker Theater opened up at 2454 18th Street NW. This signified the beginning of what has been coined the “white glove era,” when prominent residents of the city lived, shopped, and socialized in this distinguished neighborhood. 18th Street NW is now home to a variety of small shops and culinary options where nearly every culture is represented in some of the city's best restaurants, bakeries and cafes.

The Dupont Circle metro station is approximately 1/2 mile away, making the location ideal for any commuter. Additionally, the newly revived neighborhoods of Logan Circle, 14th Street NW and the entire U Street Corridor, are all within walking distance. In fact, the whole region has undergone an enormous transformation to become one of Washington, DC's most desirable, upscale neighborhoods and 1817 Vernon is right in the center of it all.
