Discover American University Park

A leafy, family-oriented upper Northwest neighborhood with classic Colonials and Tudors on tree-lined streets near American University and top schools.

American University Park, affectionately known as AU Park, is one of upper Northwest Washington DC's most desirable family neighborhoods. Defined by tree-lined streets, deep front lawns, and a charming mix of brick Colonials, Tudor Revivals, and Craftsman bungalows, AU Park offers a true suburban-in-the-city experience just minutes from downtown DC. The neighborhood is anchored by American University and Wisconsin Avenue's shops and restaurants, with excellent access to the Tenleytown-AU Metro station and the highly-rated schools of upper Northwest. Families are drawn to its safe, walkable streets, parks like Turtle Park, and the strong sense of community fostered by the AU Park Citizens Association. Homes in AU Park typically feature detached single-family construction with three to five bedrooms, classic architectural details, and well-maintained gardens. With consistent appreciation and high demand from buyers prioritizing schools, walkability, and outdoor space, AU Park represents one of DC's most stable and rewarding real estate markets. BW Metro Properties can guide you home.
