[quote=Anonymous]$950,000 for 4br/2.5ba, 2181 sq ft: The flipper finishes are cringeworthy, but I expect this to go over a million. The 600 block of L St NE is one of the best-kept blocks in Near Northeast. https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/605-L-St-NE-20002/home/9898265 $939,000 for 4br/3.5ba, 1870 sq ft: The location right on a busy stretch of Florida Ave is a dealbreaker for me. The off-white kitchen cabinets with the dust/pest-gathering gap between the uppers and ceiling would drive me crazy. These Wardman-style rows can be beautiful, but this one feels like lipstick on a pig. https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/831-Florida-Ave-NE-20002/home/9902138 $899,000 for 3br/1.5 ba, 1300 sq ft: If you can get past the front door that screams "break into me!" This house is adorable, really nice details designed by someone with style, not someone picking out flipper finishes from Home Depot. I want to cook in that kitchen. https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/1511-D-St-SE-20003/home/9919211 $895,000 for 3br/2ba, 1650 sq ft: Maury, pocket doors, and only partially painted brick. https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/311-13th-St-NE-20002/home/9913253 $849,500 for 2br+den/2ba, 1300 sq ft: There was a discussion on another thread about why people are so determined to pay exorbitant amounts for ridiculously narrow rowhouses when you can get a more spacious, modern condo in the same neighborhood for the same price. I know the answer comes down to owning the land and not having to deal with an HOA and fees. But occasionally I see a condo listing that makes me question my decision to buy one of these 12' wide houses that can't hold a sofa and a tv in the same room. https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/630-14th-St-NE-20002/unit-6/home/102142025 $738,500 for 2br/1.5ba, 936 sq ft: I don't understand why a home that looks so wide and tall has so little interior space and a completely nonfunctional layout. I don't think Capitol Hill's drunken poet listing agent is doing it any favors by pointing out "an acrobatically flexible floorplan in a yoga state of mind." https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/1223-C-St-SE-20003/home/9911848 $650,000 for 3br/1.5 ba, 1406 sq ft: Estate sale in Kingman Park. Complete gut job. Probably will go to a flipper, and we'll see it back on the market in a year for close to a million, the brick facade ruined under a coat of gray paint. https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/417-19th-St-NE-20002/home/10114691 [/quote]
