American University Park homes were first developed in the 1930s. The neighborhood is mostly made up of single-family dwellings. Many different architectural styles are represented in American University Park real estate, with Colonial predominating. These older homes have been meticulously maintained and lovingly updated. They have hardwood floors and original detail work. Kitchens and bathrooms have been remodeled with modern fittings while preserving original hardware and details like claw-foot tubs. Many houses will have a finished third floor, with space for an extra bedroom, home office, or playroom. A finished basement is another common feature, with a rec room and even an extra bedroom and bathroom.
A lovely backyard and patio gives residents space to enjoy great weather, allow kids and pets to run around, and have room for outdoor entertaining. A good many of the houses will also have a porch or stoop. These make a nice place to sit and people watch and encourages a sense of community among residents.
In addition to historic buildings, there is also some more modern construction available. These new American University Park homes have been built with 21st century smart home technology. They also have eco-friendly heating and cooling systems, “green” building materials, and details like wide-plank hardwood flooring.
American University Park (or AU Park) is considered one of the nicest neighborhoods in DC. The single-family homes give a feeling of space and suburban calm in the middle of the city. There are also lots of great cafes and restaurants. There are a couple of parks in AU Park. Fort Bayard is at the north end of the neighborhood. It was an important defense post during the Civil War. Though the fort no longer exists, there is educational signage at the park. Kids will enjoy the playground, too. American University is located just outside the boundaries of the neighborhood. With a world-class university as a neighbor, it’s no surprise that the local public schools are excellent.
