Petworth Gets Props In The Financial Times

Thanks to a reader for sending the link (you have to register but it is free). Here’s a taste:

This mostly residential area in the north-west quadrant of the city is enjoying a boom as buyers flock to its tree-lined streets, still affordable stock of sturdy single-family houses and old-neighbourhood feel. Porches are part of life here, many gardens are well-tended and residents know what’s happening on their block. It’s an easy commute to downtown, several area hospitals and Silver Spring, Maryland, just to the north. There’s also a growing array of modern-day must-haves, such as coffee shops, a yoga studio, funky restaurants and, soon, an organic grocery store.

Read the full story here.

I’m looking forward to Petworth getting featured in Le Monde…

This is literally, exactly why I bought just outside of Grant Circle a little over a year ago. I had a friend in commercial real estate who told me almost word for word what this Financial Times paragraph is saying. I’ve been really happy!
