Modern Condo Features at The Warwick

The Warwick is a former apartment building that was converted to condominium use in the 1980s. There have been a number of subsequent renovations and improvements since that time, including a recent revamp of the roof deck with its wooden flooring, large planters, and sweeping views. There are 93 condos at the Warwick, offered in a wide variety of floor plans from studios to two bedrooms, and ranging from approximately 400 to almost 1,100 square feet of living space. Many of the individual units have been remodeled by their owners over the years, accounting for numerous different looks and finishes.

Located not far from the Washington National Cathedral, the Warwick is one of a number of residential buildings built during a busy period of construction in the neighborhood during the early 20th century. The building is in a very walkable area, with numerous grassy spaces, not to mention the nearby park and its well-known walking trail. Condos in the building have various types of hardwood flooring, from vintage parquet to newer choices. Lovely millwork and built-ins add to the appeal. Kitchens were uniformly updated during the original renovation but many have been further improved since that time. Amenities at the Warwick include secure front entry via door code and key fob, a community room, on-site management, a lovely courtyard, a mail and package room, laundry facilities, extra storage, a bike room, and the roof deck with its spice gardens.

While this is the Cathedral Heights neighborhood, many people also associate the Idaho Avenue address with next-door Observatory Circle to the south. Other nearby communities include Woodley Park to the east and Wesley Heights to the west. This old and gracious neighborhood is known for a combination of single-family homes and residential buildings, along with embassies, schools, and of course, the National Cathedral itself. Nearby restaurants include DeCarlo’s just a block away, as well as several along nearby Wisconsin Avenue such as Flavio, La Piquette, 2 Amys, and Cactus Cantina.
