History
The Ashton Heights Historic District was once owned by Major Bushrod Hunter (b. 1807). Hunter also owned Brookdale and Abingdon Plantation, now Reagan National Airport, near the Pentagon and Arlington National Cemetery. The area was first platted and subdivided in 1921. The dwelling styles include a variety of architectural styles, Single-family dwellings built prior to 1950, primarily in the Bungalow / Craftsman and Colonial Revival styles, dominate the neighborhood, with some notable earlier Queen Anne style dwellings. The district includes a number of multiple-family apartment buildings, three churches, the Women's Club of Ashton Heights, and Columbia Gardens Cemetery. Also located in the district is the separately listed Clarendon School.[3]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2003.[1]
