About 453 W Water St W

Tucked into the heart of Hburg’s beloved Brookland Addition neighborhood—known to locals as “Brooklandia”—this updated 1920 brick duplex offers flexibility, rental income, and lifestyle. With two fully separate units and a detached building converted into a media room or studio, it’s a perfect fit for house hackers, multi-generational households, or investors looking to own on one of the city’s coolest blocks. The main-level unit features two bedrooms, two full baths, a bright living room, a well-appointed kitchen with stainless appliances and gas range, and a flexible dining or office area that opens onto a 12x17 back deck—perfect for hosting or outdoor dinners on warm summer nights. Upstairs offers one bedroom, a cozy living room, updated kitchen and bath, a breakfast nook, and a private deck. Out back, you’ll find a fully fenced yard with fruit trees and a great sense of privacy. Just blocks from Westover Park, JMU’s softball and baseball fields, and downtown’s restaurants, breweries, and arts scene, this is a rare opportunity in a neighborhood people love to call home. Both units are tenant-occupied through July 31; showings will be limited to Saturday and the following Tuesday to respect the downstairs tenant’s work schedule.
