[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If Amidon-Bowen is "solid" enough for you, I'd look at Southwest. However, most rowhomes in your budget are in condo developments, like https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/59-G-St-SW-20024/unit-110/home/9885294 You could also look in the Van Ness boundary for something like https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/915-5th-St-SE-20003/home/9896272 or https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/922-4th-St-SE-20003/home/39955885 --these have sold recently and nothing in your price range is on the market now, but be on the lookout. Your odds of getting in to preK there are lower than at Amidon, but in either place you have Appletree, Eagle Academy, and other charters. Plus if your husband's a fed there could be day cares there and there are a bunch in columbia heights. [/quote] I think this is really good advice, especially SW - the element has preK, the library has just been renovated and has a kids playground out front (plus two more in the neighborhood) and there's Safeway and some nice restaurants right at the metro stn,community garden on 4th st, farmers market at metro, public pool, and great live music and theater nearby.The Wharf is nearby which is nice for going out and for properties' appreciating. If you'd think about a townhouse with an HOA, these would check a lot of boxes. https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/819-Delaware-Ave-SW-20024/unit-226/home/9885682[/quote]
