4000 Mass

Expensive but it's a great apartment building. You get a lot of space, there's a deli run by a nice Korean family, and a seamstress/dry cleaner, and a barbershop. There is no gym and there is a communal laundry room. which are downsides.

Good value in safe neighborhood

Might be a bit far for some, but there are two nearby bus lines heading downtown, and shops/restaurants nearby on Wisconsin Ave. For the outdoorsy type, the Glover Archibold trail is adjacent to the building, and for the cyclist it's an 8 minute ride out of DC on MacArthur Ave into MD.

Great neighborhood - Quiet but close to city

4000 Mass is a great location for wanting to live in a quieter neighborhood, but also being close to the city. Close to American University for students. Parking is expensive if you choose to park in the garage, but plenty of street parking.

4000 Mass Ave is a great place to live

The floor plans are spacious. The property is secure and the community is welcoming (families, young professionals, some elderly, international mix). The leasing office is very accessible and usually responsive.
This is a full service apt bldg which hosts a breakfast cafe/lunch counter, small 7/11 type market, full service dry cleaner w/ wash-n-fold options, front dest clerk/package valet/bellhop. Bike rooms, extra storage and luggage storage are all available and included with the lease. Parking is an add on. So if you don't need it, you don't pay for it (they have 7 garages and outside parking).
I will say, noise travels easily and rugs are mandatory but bare feet or shoes on hardwood is what it is. There are 3 or 4 bus stops just outside, so the commute is quite convenient to all of DC. The new Giant on Macomb is near many restaurants, banking and boutiques; they are walkable. There's a farmers market at the corner during the warmer months--so fresh local produce is a nice bonus. Most people walk Nebraska Ave. to get to Tenleytown. There's no gym…but honestly--you'll be outside enjoying the grounds and the neighborhood/or you can just have your own equipment 'cuz you'll have the space. The National Cathedral is just our the window and also walkable!!
The bad thing about this place: only one set of elevators--so if you live at the end--you have to walk--but the leasing office is cognizant of this and they were able to give me us a parking spot next to the stairwell nearest our unit. Also there are several secure entrances, therefore the elevators aren't mandatory.
Overall--great place to live.

Cathedral Heights Reviews

43 reviews
Relatively peaceful, quiet, and green neighborhood that’s not too far away from the bustling and louder college residences or town markets. Very walkable, close to the wooden trail, and easy access to transit.
I went into this a bit on my apartment review. I love living in an actual neighborhood. There's always kids and dogs running around so it feel super safe. I like the front yards, trees, and gardens - definitely doesn't give off the "concrete jungle" vibe. There's not a lot of traffic noise and everything is pretty well maintained. There's some gorgeous Embassies near by which are stunning to look at. Great area for jogging (if you're into that) and right by American without feeling like you live in a dorm.
It seems like if you live or work at AU, this is a great neighborhood for you. Also if you work on the N2/N4/N6 route and want to be sort of tucked-back into the semi-suburbs but won't be bothered by college kids, it's also a great neighborhood for that. Mass Ave South of campus is basically all apartments for a few blocks so that really is the neighborhood. Not that it's not a great neighborhood if you're not involved with AU, but since I went there, most of the people I know around here are affiliated with the school.
Cathedral Heights is a great neighborhood. It is close to a variety of bars, restaurants, grocery stores, and other useful resources. It is serviced by a variety of bus lines, but not any metro stops.
Because I've only been here during the pandemic I can't talk on the neighborhood too much, but everything is very walkable and has great restaurants and such.
It's very quiet. If you're looking for more of a night life and action this probably isn't the neighborhood for you
Very safe and lots of new restaurants popping up! Also very dog friendly. Walking distance to Giant.
An easy walk to school, and an amazing view of the national cathedral. Grocery shopping and restaurants are just a couple blocks away. The 33 bus line is very accessible and consistent. The only problem is that it is a 20+ minute walk to the closest metro stops (Cleveland park and Tenleytown metro stops).
