| It’s fine…you’re paying for the size of the house and the acreage. You rarely get half an acre in DC. And it’s on a quiet street. Price is right |

Shutters would enhance the exterior appearance and crown molding would give some character to the interior rooms. Could use a bit of color inside. |

| Incredible yard and definitely some positives but it needs a dose of personality inside, colors, wallpapers, less mirrored walls, and new heating/cooling. I find it hard to imagine a lot of buyers at that range wanting baseboard heating and so sadly I think you might end up with a teardown. |

| House has been on the market since May and has gone through $1.2 million in price reductions, and now suddenly gets posted to DCUM purportedly as someone's dream house. Ummm, OK. |

Street view? Is there no curbside? Just that fence?

Which is totally defeating the whole purpose of how the house was designed in the first place. The windows are too inset to accommodate shutters, which they never had. It was supposed to be a clean, pared down design of a French Normandy or Provencal house, rustic and elongated cottagey. I wouldn't clutter it up with crown molding. I did notice the second floor ceilings are lowish at 8 feet. |

It’s supposed to be a cottage! It needs Ben Pentreath, not crown molding for goodness sake. |

I think that’s intentional. It goes with the cottage vibe. I like it, I just think it is tragic not to have the kitchen interact with the backyard and I think it’s tragic that there’s no screened porch, and I wouldn’t want to screen the one off the living room and spoil the view. So idk how you could swap the kitchen and the dining room and add a porch without major trauma. |
