The inside looks nice (and they didn't cover everything with white paint!). It's right next to the Adams Market, though. Locals, what do you think: is that a plus or a minus?

It's in the historic district, so any maintenance will be a colossal, expensive PITA. Especially that back sliding door. No parking and street parking is virtually impossible in that area, but you can't beat the location if you're car-free.

Not bad, though the grey kitchen really isn't to my taste. That should go quickly to someone who works on the hill. And it's (just) outside the CMZ (Capitol Militarized Zone).

I thought the historic preservation rules just affected what's visible from the street in front, though. I wouldn't expect them to cause much of an issue with the rear sliding doors—but I just rent in Capitol Hill, so I'm not intimately familiar with the historic preservation rules.

I'm not sure if this is a flip or if the previous sellers decided to do a reno and relist. It was listed in April last year at $750,000, had several price changes, then the listing was eventually removed in June at $725,000—but it doesn't show a sale.

It looks fairly nice now, and that's a pretty spacious looking back yard (for a rowhome), but $1.1 million seems a tad aggressive to me for something that far east. I've pretty sure I've seen houses in the Capitol Hill Historic District with the same amount of space list at about the same price.

What do you all think?

I think the price is reasonable. It’s a very pretty house four blocks from Lincoln Park, zoned for an elementary school people like. If that were my budget in this neighborhood, I’d seriously consider it!

Still available! I love this house and wish we could afford it. I guess if we were going to make he move to Hill East for more space, we should have done it a few years ago when these places were going for closer to 700? If this really goes for $1.1m, I think I can safely say we'll never be able to move within this neighborhood again. Bummer.

Friends of mine bought something incredibly similar, but a couple hundred square feet smaller about three blocks away over on 15th street SE. Paid $1.045. I think they overpaid seeing as the property (and its twin next door) was on the market for almost 200 days when they purchased. The twin never sold and as just put on the rental market instead.

It went pending on Thursday. I was kind of hoping it would sit for a while, because if $1.1 really is the right price for a house this far east, that puts everything anywhere near the Hill out of my price range.

Oh, well. I hear some of the suburbs aren't...awful.
