All units feature hardwood floors throughout, as well as a chef’s kitchen with granite counters, dishwasher and stainless steel appliances.

The Greysteel Company in Bethesda, Md. represented DelShah. Aria Investment Group represented itself in the transaction.

DelShah will also be selling the Embassy of Georgia building at 2209 Massachusetts Avenue, its last asset in D.C., which is being marketed by Greysteel.
