What's Hot: New Model Debuts at Capitol Hill's Luxury, Elevator Townhomes | The Costs and Profits of a DC Condo Conversion, Revisited
New Homes Released at Townhome Community in Northeast DC
The Hampshires is situated in the quiet, residential neighborhood of Lamond Riggs, and is within walking distance of two Metro stations: the Fort Totten Metro station to the south and the Takoma Park Metro station to the north, each within a mile from the community. Metrobus K6 stops directly in front of The Hampshires.
The Lamond Riggs neighborhood is sandwiched between Manor Park and the DC/Maryland border. It is known for its suburban feel with lots of long-time residents—some of whom first moved in 50+ years ago—and plenty of green space. Nearby shops include Giant Food, Shoprite and the boutique shops of Takoma Park.
This exclusive Hampshires community is built around a Village Green, featuring landscaped open space and a dog park. The Hampshires combines the convenience of upscale, urban living in a Metro accessible location with hard-to-find, private open space amenities. Opportunities to own a new home are limited: just 38 city homes (single family detached) and 73 townhomes are available at The Hampshires.
The first phase of development is nearing completion with over ninety percent of homes either settled or sold and under construction. With a limited number of new-home communities available in the District—and in order to keep pace with the demand for new homes—Hampshires’ developer Comstock Homes built a handful of townhomes (during the community’s first phase) that are now move-in ready. The just launched second phase of the community consists of 13 single-family homes and 35 townhomes.
The elegant, all brick single-family homes offer four bedrooms with a fifth first-floor bedroom option, three full baths and a powder room, and a total of 2,700 square feet of living space. Each home has a private two-car garage and a fenced in rear yard.
The homes also feature an opulent owner’s suite with French doors leading to a balcony; a gourmet kitchen with designer cabinets, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a large eating and preparation island with pan drawers and trash cabinets and hardwood flooring; and a beautiful dining room (with butler’s pantry) with an oversized bay window and custom, built-in window seating. The spacious third floor retreat provides ample space for entertaining.
The award-winning brick townhomes—recipient of the 2013 Greater American Living Awards for architectural and interior design—feature three-bedrooms and range from approximately 1,800 to 1,950 square feet. Gourmet kitchens include large eating/preparation islands with pan drawers and trash cabinets, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, a desk/work area and upgraded cabinets.
The townhomes’ open floor plans include generous room sizes and master suites that offer both spacious walk-in closets and luxurious master baths. The Devon model townhome has three levels and the Eaton model has a fourth story with a stunning rooftop terrace, loft and bedroom. Most homes offer a garage.
With pricing for new townhomes at The Hampshires starting from $479,900 and single-family homes from $699,900 this is an exceptional value.
The Hampshires is located at 6000 New Hampshire Avenue NE (map) in the established Lamond Riggs/Takoma Park area of Washington, DC. Don’t miss the opportunity to see this unique community and take time to visit all four of the model homes at The Hampshires.
