The home at the corner of 13th Street and Fairmont Street NW sold last week for $1.4 million.

"It is the highest residential sale in Columbia Heights by almost $300,000," Brandon Green, a managing broker with Keller Williams Capital Properties, said."

The home features 5,000 square feet of space; its 5-bedroom, six-and-a-half bathroom layout is considered unusually large for the area. It also features three decks and off-street parking.

"All of those elements, combined with a lot of extra movement in Columbia Heights, created a sale that's really breaking the price ceiling," Green said.

The high-end sale reflects a larger trend of growth in the neighborhood, partially spurred by the D.C. USA development, which helped create a major commercial corridor around the Columbia Heights Metro station.
