L A LOCATION AND INVESTMENT These houses, 5120 to 5134 Nebraska Avenue N.W., Chevy Chase, D.,C., are one-half block east of Connecticut Avenue—12 blocks this side of Chevy Chase Circle—12 minutes’ drive from the downtown business center. An investment in this location, almost the highest pomnt in the District, is as safe and sound as a Government bond. This group of semi-detached “homes™ is in the center of a restricted residential section—one of the most ex- clusive and fashionable sections in the District of Columbia. In the immediate neighborhood are houses worth over $50,000—more than a million dollars is being invested in “home”" building projects in this neighborhood this Spring. Only two minutes’ drive from Rock Creek Park via Connecticut Avenue, or through Nebraska Avenue on your way to 16th Street, these semi-detached homes present an alluring picture of beauty and comfort nestling on the side of a gentle slope overlooking Chevy Chase Grove. Any house in this group, each an architectural gem, in a preferred restricted Histrict, accessible from three main arteries, but located on a quiet avenue 120 feet wide just off the main thoroughfare, is all that could be desired for a home. As an investment, a more profitable one could not be found, nor a safer one anywhere. The amount of available home building property in this neighborhood is indeed limited, as home builders have taken it off of the market. Land values, in consequence, are rapidly rising—values never can decrease here. Natural barriers against commercial intrusion and speculative subdivision development is the guarantee of the present value and the future increasing value of these homes. Considering the price asked for these houses, the de- mand for homes in this beautiful and healthful section of the District, the accessibility from three main arteries, the neamess to the city proper, the splendid bus and street car service, and the proximity to the famous Rock Creek Park, we know these houses will soon be in the possession of conservative and appreciative home owners. The quality of the houses themselves—they are built with all the permanency that brick and cement can give them—the design of the houses, the material and work- maxship embodied in them, the.choice location, the high- grade investment, and thie low cost to you, are adequate reasons for making one of these houses your home. We offer you every facility to inspect these houses at your convenience—our representative will call for you at any time—or, should you visit these premises without notice, you will find our representative on the grounds. Houses open for inspection from 9 AM. to 10 PM. every day, including Sunday. Down town office phone, Main 8174, Lenox Bldg., 1523 L Street N.W. i Phone on premises, Cleveland 2683.
