[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1225 Independence is the only home that caught my eye this week (look away PP with the very tight geographic preferences). How are they getting away with listing as a 5BR when the note says that 2 of the BRs aren't legal Link: https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/1225-Independence-Ave-SE-20003/home/9911545[/quote] There's also no chance you could ever make either of the basement bedrooms legal. [b]This is within the historic district, so they won't let you dig out the front to allow you to install an egress window.[/b] The back basement bedroom appears to back into a storage space, which appears to be a crawl space, so that's not happening either.[/quote] And yet the current owner of my old townhouse right there did exactly this! (dig out). They took a two story, no basement townhouse and have dug out an english basement apartment and added a third floor. It's now three units.[/quote]
