McLean Gardens blends classic brick architecture with everyday convenience on the Upper Northwest side of Washington. Tucked just off Wisconsin Avenue between Cleveland Park and Cathedral Heights, the neighborhood puts you close to cafés, Cathedral Commons, and City Ridge’s retail (including Wegmans). The Red Line is within easy reach via Tenleytown–AU and Cleveland Park stations, while tree-lined streets and pocket parks make quick work of dog walks and evening jogs. Weekend plans often include a stroll to the soaring Washington National Cathedral or dining along Wisconsin before heading down to trails near Glover Park.
Recreation is a daily habit here. The Newark Street Recreation area offers tennis courts, a beloved community garden, and the off-leash Newark Street Dog Park. Nature lovers can slip into the wooded corridors of Glover-Archbold Park, yet home remains only minutes from urban essentials.
Schools are a major draw. Many families look to well-regarded DCPS options such as Eaton Elementary, Hardy Middle, and Jackson-Reed High School (verify current boundaries), with renowned independent schools nearby as well. Proximity to Tenleytown and Cleveland Park brings libraries, playgrounds, and neighborhood services within a short walk or bike ride.
