In the tight-knit community of DC’s Takoma neighborhood, which offers a unique balance of small-town charm and culturally rich city living, opportunities to buy new real estate are rare. But the neighborhood’s first new condominium in more than a decade—The Arbor at Takoma—is nearing completion and sales just launched.

The Arbor at Takoma is a boutique building boasting just 36 upscale one- and two-bedroom homes, including four penthouse residences. Pricing starts from the high $300s and move-ins will begin in the fall. To book a hard hat tour, visit TheArboratTakoma.com or call the property at 202-296-1208.

Behind a brick exterior complimented by interesting angles, oversized windows and balconies, each floorplan at The Arbor at Takoma is unique and can range up to 1,100 square feet. Interiors are transitional in style and finishes include wood plank flooring, striking dark navy and white cabinetry, and recessed lighting.

While many of the homes have balconies, all four of the penthouses boast spacious private terraces. Additional private storage and a limited number of parking spaces are available as well.

The Arbor at Takoma is conveniently located directly across from the Takoma Metro on the Red Line, but can best be described as a walker’s paradise (with a WalkScore of 90). In addition to being surrounded by local businesses and restaurants, the property is a short walk from The Parks at Walter Reed—where a Whole Foods Market will open this June—and is just moments from the beauty of Rock Creek Park.  

Hard hat tours are now available by appointment through the website at TheArboratTakoma.com, or by calling the property at 202-296-1208.
