WELCOME TO BURLEITH
|
|
|
|
|
Burleith is a community of small single-family
row houses located in beautiful Washington, DC. The 531 houses in the neighborhood were mostly developed in the 1920's.
The neighborhood is wholly residential, forming a small oasis of peaceful greenery nestled alongside Glover-Archibold Park.
