It is ideally situated near the upcoming RFK Stadium redevelopment, offering easy access to the Metro, bus stops, and city conveniences. The perfect blend of seclusion and accessibility—come tour this exceptional home today! I wanted to clarify the current property tax situation for this listing. Currently, the taxes appear higher than usual because the District of Columbia classifies the property as vacant, which carries a higher tax rate of $5.00 per $100 of assessed value. However, once the property is purchased and occupied, this classification will change, significantly reducing the tax burden. Additionally, as a homeowner, you may qualify for the DC Homestead Deduction, which reduces the taxable assessed value of your property. So don't llet this stop you from touring this home!
