A letter from the sellers:
We are excited for you to experience the wonderful Petworth neighborhood which we
have had the pleasure of calling home since November 2016! It’s the longest time we’ve
ever lived in a single location and that’s a reflection of how much we loved the family-
oriented (and dog-friendly) community, our neighbors (everyone on our street gets along
and looks after each other), and the convenience of being close to downtown DC but
still feeling like we are away from the hustle and bustle.
You have everything you need right on your doorstep- the grocery stores, Petworth
library, the Saturday farmers market, and the delicious restaurants on Upshur street are
just a 10–15-minute walk away. We often took the kids to play on Sherman Circle where
the local Petworth Peanuts group organizes all sorts of fun events throughout the year,
like the Halloween Spooktacular which features live music, a costume contest, and
games. The local Petworth Parents Facebook group is a great place to hear about local
events.
I was initially worried about living across the street from a school because I work from
home every day, but I never once heard any noise from there. Our kids went to Creative
Minds International by President Lincoln’s cottage because that’s where we got married
and loved the campus. However, we’ve heard wonderful things about Barnard
Elementary School which has an active PTA led by many of the parents who run
Petworth Peanuts.
Petworth is known for its porches and friendly neighbors- we even have an annual
Porch Fest featuring live music on porches throughout the neighborhood! We’ve spent
many hours in rocking chairs on our porch chatting with our neighbors (Dwight on one
side and Joyce, Jackie and Jocelyn on the other). The houses on our street get the
benefit of having nice spacious gardens, which my daughter says is one of her favorite
things about our old house! We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
