Across the street from Maury


Cute. 1.4m?


it has a finished IL suite basement, nice outdoor space, and a garage! I would probably put up a fence in the back for more privacy (although that would chop up the outdoor space since it could only go along the property line.) FWIW the front yard gets a ton of sunlight so you can have a nice garden.

Two weeks later, the market seems to have said, "Overpriced." Or at least that the market isn't quite as hot as it was.

Here's a Redfin link, for those who prefer it: https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/535-5th-St-SE-20003/home/9896230

Another one I don't understand. $750k seems high for something that requires a gut rehab.

This seems like a good size for under a million. It seems like half the houses on this block are for sale and just sitting. What's the deal here?

Not sub-million (really really not), but I just love seeing something with personality. This one is for armchair shoppers bored with the standard flipper decor.

None of these have gone pending yet. That's not surprising, since most of these weren't new listings. Only 1334 G was new when the quoted message was posted; it's been on the market 15 days now. 307 I has been listed for a month, 604 13th has been up for 45 days, 532 13th was listed in April, and 511 Seward has been on and off the market for almost a year now!

I really like 511 Seward, but I guess no one wants to deal with other people's wallpaper choices for $2.25M (originally just under $2.5M).

In the same category of very much not sub-million, this one has been on the market for three weekends now, with an open house each weekend:

5BR/4.5BA, 4,798 sf:
https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/908-Massachusetts-Ave-NE-20002/home/9904541

I'm actually a little surprised it hasn't sold—it's large, gorgeous, and is in a great location. But I guess $2.5 million gives you a lot of options, even around DC.


Gorgeous house but one thing that always puzzles me with houses like this is where do you put the coats/shoes when you go in? It looks like they've put serious money into remodeling so the layout must not allow for any coat closet type space at all. No drop off zone.

The market for $2.5 million dollar homes is incredibly small.


This one has an aparment/in law suite on the top floor. Kind of an odd configuration for most people on the Hill.

I drool over this one

Now pending. Also, I don't think you can infer anything at all from a listing that goes pending within a week. People list on different days of the week, and most of them wait to review offers until Monday evening or Tuesday anyway. I think it's best to just count the number of weekends that have occurred since the listing was posted (around here, usually 0-1).

Maybe the separate basement???

They do have a cute backyard outdoor space. We walk by it frequently.

I'm seeing houses sit for a really long time now. Buyers who want to get into this neighborhood could put in an offer under listing and still stand a chance.
