The Kingman street house looks like a great deal. Not as large as some, but really lovely. I like the pink living room– I tried to sell something like that shade for our house, but my husband nixed it.

I’ve been in that house before–I don’t recall it being that light filled–maybe they changed paint color. Great house and great block though.

lovely house. just a comment–not about ‘good deal or not’–is it just me or does the stove seem oddly placed. It seems kind of crammed into the corner. There’s one whole side of the kitchen with no appliances, that would have made a better location. Or even flipping the dishwasher and the stove so that it wasn’t squeezed between the refrigerator and the sink, would have felt less cramped.

I lived on that street for 2 years and it is quite possibly the most adorable street ever! It is quiet. Big mature street trees. There is no through traffic since it is a one block long street. It is around the corner from the P and 14th street Whole foods mecca and the gorgeous circle. It is an equi-distant about 1/2 mile or so from all of the train lines (no more transferring ever). The studio theater is around the corner and is always in need of ushers (free theater). There is also a boys and girls club across the street. When I lived there 2 years ago, there were condos around the corner on Q going for $1.2 and a house across the street which I think was smaller, but had a great roof deck, went for a about $900k if I remember correctly.

I now live in north columbia heights and find myself pining for the neighborhood and its amenities from time to time. If I had a cool mil to drop on a house, I would buy it in a heartbeat.
