Georgetown is one of the oldest neighborhoods in Washington, DC and because of its prime location on the Potomac River served as a major port and commercial center during colonial times.

Today, Georgetown is a vibrant community with lots of upscale shopping and restaurants along its cobblestone streets.

Many of the homes are 200 year-old restored row houses. Georgetown housing is expensive, so most Georgetown University students live on campus or rent apartments uptown or nearby in Virginia.

As of January 3, 2008, over the past 30 days fifteen homes sold, ranging from an

efficiency/studio for $240,000 to a 6 bed federal style single family detached home for $7.5 million.

Twenty homes were under contract, ranging from a 1 bed unit listed for $350,000 to a 6 bed federal style townhouse listed for $5.2 million. 

As of January 3, 2008, 77 homes were for sale, ranging from a 1 bed unit listed for $379,000 to a 4 bed unit listed for $4.45 million.
