"One of the last QUIET neighborhoods in DC"

The location of Bellevue and the quiet environment with plenty of free parking is are its selling points. I love this neighborhood and I am so glad to have moved here. The history of Shepherd's Parkway is amazing and I anticipate one day, historic signs will be posted to highlight the significance of certain areas. There are a lot of homes being renovated and sold to a more younger buyer and it is bringing a welcome mix to the neighborhood. My friends are amazed when they visit this little known neighborhood of Southwest, as it is separated from the SW Waterfront area by the bridge and is East of the Potomac River while being West of the Anacostia River. We are getting a new grocery store with plenty of organic, locally-sourced, and healthy foods, which is due to be delivered by 2018. This area is truly a gem and I am glad to have found it before the real estate prices start creeping up more.
