Georgetown

Though I live on the Hill, I joke that Georgetown is where I go to vacation – & it is where I spend the most amount of my time when I’m not at home. Whether I’m stopping into Manse for a client gift, meeting a peer for lunch at La Bonne Vache, or taking a lap through a stately historic home, Georgetown hits all of the high notes for me and for many of my clients. The West Village boasts proximity to Georgetown University, and the East Village has a coveted proximity to gorgeous gardens and parks. The nearest metro accessibility is about a 20 minute walk away to Foggy Bottom, so living here means living a dedicated urban lifestyle or having a car – but everything you could need is within a 15 minute walk, including some of the city’s best cafes and restaurants.

If you’d like to learn more about buying or selling in Georgetown, send me an email.
