Welcome to 728 Fairmont Street NW, a recently updated Colonial rowhome perched at one of the higher elevations of Columbia Heights. This circa 1926 home welcomes you with a fieldstone retaining wall, through a terraced front yard with a River Rock patio at its top tier leading to an inviting front porch framed by two brick columns on a covered porch deck.
