Georgetown Homes
Georgetown is bounded on the north by Reservoir Road, on the west by the grounds of Georgetown University, on the south by the Potomac River, and on the east by the lushness of Rock Creek Park.
The neighborhood is best known for its stunning stock of multi-million-dollar homes and estates that date back more than 100 years. The streets abound with homes built in the colonial and federal styles—a major reason why Georgetown has been designated a National Historic Landmark District.
In addition, those inclined to more manageable living (as well as downtown and waterfront views) can find a range of condominium complexes throughout the neighborhood (some of which have been built within the shell of old industrial buildings).
Among the many acclaimed residences you can choose from: Georgetown Madelon, 1055 High, Papermill Townhouse Condominiums, and the Flour Mill Condominium.

Georgetown's History
COLONIAL ROOTS
Georgetown’s role in the larger story of Washington DC goes all the way back to the region’s colonial roots, when it was part of the province of Maryland.
You can still find evidence of the neighborhood’s roots today; the Old Stone House at 3051 M Street dates back to 1765. Purchased by the National Park Service, it’s open to visitors with no admission fee required.
Georgetown officially became incorporated into the District of Columbia as part of a 1791 land deal that transformed it into an independent municipal government within the nation’s capital (this designation would later be revoked in 1871).
The neighborhood’s economic importance in the subsequent centuries cannot be overstated. Georgetown was a central shipping location, and offered access to the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal and the Washington and Georgetown Railroad Company.
Georgetown University (formerly Georgetown College) was founded in 1789.
A NEXUS OF SHOPPING
Today’s Georgetown continues to be an economic boon—but more for shopping than shipping.
The intersection of Wisconsin Avenue NW and M Street NW has become the center of a world-famous shopping district and popular tourist destination. Shops ranging from Nike, Michael Kors, and Ralph Lauren to Apple, Dean & DeLuca, and Brooks Brothers offer enjoyment for fashionistas and window shoppers alike.
Recent years have seen a dramatic redevelopment of the land along the Potomac River, transforming the southern stretch of Georgetown into the perfect spot for al-fresco adventures. Kayak trips, grassy picnics, a splash park, or an afternoon glass of wine are just a few of the many options available.
Another benefit to life in Georgetown? Some of your famous neighbors. Former residents of Georgetown include Julia Child, John F. Kennedy and Jackie Kennedy, and Francis Scott Key. And don’t forget the infamous “Exorcist” steps at 36th Street NW.
