The homes at Connecticut Heights Apartments blend modern living with vintage style and historical charms. The ambiance is comfortable and serene, but with a perfect dash of energy and excitement thanks to the ideal location on Connecticut Avenue in D.C. Here, you’ll find an incredible variety of restaurants, landmarks and entertainment destinations to explore. Inside the community, enjoy the spacious interiors with premium appliances, granite countertops and massive windows. Host your private event in the clubroom, work out in the fitness center or take a swim in the pool. Connecticut Heights is perfect for those who seek and appreciate a charming residential experience that’s distinctly D.C.
Connecticut Heights Apartments is located in the quiet D.C. area of Van Ness, also referred to as Forest Hills. Here, families and students thrive near local parks, schools and convenient transit options, and the busier, bustling parts of D.C. are only minutes away. But just because Van Ness is a primarily residential area full of traditional architecture, doesn't mean it is short on all the urban amenities. Locals love being so close to delicious restaurants, great shopping and, of course, the D.C. landmarks. Visit this unique community today and see what makes Van Ness such a peaceful place to call home!
