Featured Property of the Week: 1007 O Street NW
“Tucked along a quiet, tree-lined stretch in DC’s coveted Logan Circle, 1007 O Street NW is the kind of home that stops you mid-scroll. Crafted by OPaL, DC’s award-winning design-build firm, this practically brand-new home is a refined statement of design, where every detail feels intentional and elevated. From its striking architecture to its effortlessly livable layout, the [3BR/3.5BA] home is both a showpiece and a sanctuary. Think timeless materials, thoughtful craftsmanship, and a calm, understated elegance that lets you exhale the moment you walk in. This isn’t just a place to live—it’s a place to feel something. And in a neighborhood as sought-after as Logan Circle, opportunities like this don’t come around often.” (more…)

Update from DC Fire and EMS: “#DCsBravest responded to an outside fire in the 100 block of H St SE that has been extinguished. There were no injuries. This accounts for smoke that many have seen.”
“Update outside fire 100 block of H St SE. Fire involved a homeless tent beneath freeway. #DCsBravest quickly extinguished fire. Occupant indicated she was using propane, which may explain report of “explosion”. 1 individual with non life threatening injury.”
