Living in Palisades

The Palisades is DC's best-kept secret — a quiet, tree-lined neighborhood perched above the Potomac River just west of Georgetown. Known for its summer farmer's market, independent restaurants on MacArthur Boulevard, and generous lot sizes unheard of in most of DC, the Palisades attracts buyers who want DC's cultural access without the urban intensity. Homes here are predominantly single-family, with large yards and a true neighborhood feel.
