$950k 3br 1.5ba near Stanton Park. The tuckpointing alone might be worth the price, LOL.

$893k 3br 2.5ba near Lincoln Park zoned for Maury.

$659k 2br 1ba not much curb appeal here. I'm sure the renovation was done several owners ago, but it was dumb to do an addition without a second bathroom.

$655k 2br 1ba better curb appeal than the one above, but more like a 1br with office -- I think DC requires a room to be 70 sq ft to be called a bedroom, and 7x9 ain't quite that.

Case in point, see this one nearby, $865k for 3br/1.5ba and underwhelming update choices.

Would you pay $679k for a studio marketed as a one-bedroom loft? The square footage (1250 sq ft) seems massive for a single open room, but the way it's partitioned is so awkward and confining.

Has anyone seen the Emerald Street house? I'm surprised it's still on the market, especially since the other two properties in this post (even the condo!) went under contract pretty quickly. It's just taunting me, being all available now and not when I needed it to be. I'd like for someone to make me feel better by telling me it needs $20k in structural work or something.

We have friends who live on Emerald Street, in a house that's laid out almost exactly the same as this one (theirs isn't as freshened up on the inside). They love everything about their street except that it's zoned for Miner (they've repeatedly struck out in the DCPS lottery). That fact alone has them thinking about moving.

As the listing notes, one of the three bedrooms probably is fit for only a crib or for use as an office, so it's really a two-bedroom. It's not a lot of house for $800K, but I also realize the DC market is superheated right now. It's at least a little surprising that it's lasted this long in this environment.

Would you rather have the Emerald house or this one on Elliott, about two blocks north (nearly the same price)?

The $1m ask for that F Street house is bananas. It must be FSBO right? What the heck?

Maybe they saw the house directly across the street that's going for an absurd $2.095 million and got excited. That one's been on the market for three weeks and already has seen one $100k price reduction, though. Going to guess it'll come down even more:

https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/648-F-St-NE-20002/home/9898560

They've shaved another $200k off the price of this. Now nearly 14 percent cheaper than when it was first listed.

MLS says it's supposed to close on Friday, so I'd guess the sale price should show up sometime this weekend.
