Discover Forest Hills

A serene, wooded upper Northwest neighborhood of architect-designed homes and embassy estates tucked between Rock Creek Park and Connecticut Avenue.

Forest Hills is one of Washington DC's most exclusive and naturally beautiful neighborhoods — a serene, heavily wooded upper Northwest enclave nestled between Rock Creek Park and Connecticut Avenue. The neighborhood is celebrated for its mix of architect-designed mid-century modern homes, traditional Tudor and Colonial estates, and a number of grand embassy residences. Forest Hills offers a true forest-like atmosphere within DC limits, with deep wooded lots, winding streets, and a magnificent canopy of mature oak, maple, and tulip poplar trees. Residents enjoy quick access to the Van Ness-UDC Metro station, the shops and restaurants along Connecticut Avenue, the Hillwood Estate Museum, and miles of Rock Creek Park trails. The neighborhood is especially popular with diplomats, professionals, academics from the nearby University of the District of Columbia, and families seeking privacy and natural beauty without sacrificing urban convenience. With limited inventory and consistent demand from sophisticated buyers, Forest Hills represents one of DC's most enduring and prestigious real estate markets. BW Metro Properties can help you find the perfect home in this hidden enclave.
