The flier says:

“Open 2 bed/2 bath Loft apt in boutique Greenwich on a quiet street in Adams Morgan with EXTRA-LARGE private garage parking and storage – only one in building! Wonderful kitchen w/ Uba Tuba black granite counters/bar, SS appliances (gas cooktop), gas FP, Juliet balcony overlooking courtyard, wash/dryer, travertine baths, HWF, and high ceilings!”

You can find more info here and a virtual tour here.

We judged this building about a year ago. As always, I psyched to be able to check out the inside. Which leads me to a question I’ve recently had – do you think it’s easier to sell a place with furniture in it? I have a tougher time appreciating it when it is empty. Of course we’ve seen some ridiculous furniture in GDoN posts. Which do prefer – furnished photos or vacant?

Anyway, what do you think of this condo? Does $595,000 sound reasonable for this 2 bed/2bath?

The flier says:

“Bright efficiency with new kitchen at The Georgian. Beautiful hardwood floors, roof deck, extra storage. Condo fee includes all utilities. Walk to Dupont red line metro. Cats only allowed.”

You can find more info and photos here.

I’m guessing the unit itself is pretty small but it’s pretty sweet to have a roof deck. Do you think $199,500 sounds reasonable for an efficiency at this location?

The flier says:

“2 blocks from the Columbia Heights metro, at the entrance to Adams Morgan. Walk to Target, Best Buy, Giant and many more retail and restaurants. Live in a one of a kind building built in the 20’s with original hardwood floors, high ceilings, large bedrooms, marble, tile and balcony! Building is featured in the “Best Addresses” book.”

You can find more info here.

Sadly there are no photos but I’m intrigued by this property due to the price and location. I think the location is terrific given the proximity to Adams Morgan, Mt. Pleasant and Columbia Heights. The studio is going for $204,900 and a one bedroom is going for $367,900. Sound reasonable?

I’ve been dying to know what it looks like inside these unusual buildings on the 1700 block of U Street. I’ve always thought the top pointed part would make an awesome skylight… Anyway, at least we get a glimpse if only a few photos are listed. This 2 bed/1.5 bath is going for $425,000. Sound reasonable?

I’m really digging the floors and look of this place. It is 2 bed/1 bath thought it seems to have a pretty cool layout. It’s interesting to look at an apartment with old school details. What do you think of the apartment itself? Does $449,500 sound reasonable?

The flier says:

“Best Deal Around! Bright spacious 1BR terrace level unit with private entrance. Freshly painted and shows beautifully. Hardwood floors and carpeting in BR. Steps to the exciting Adams Morgan nightlife, and a short walk across the bridge to the Metro! Location Location Location!”

More info found here and a mouse on house tour found here.

I’m interested to hear what you guys think about this one because I almost bought one of these terrace units in 2002. Interesting to note is that at that time the unit also sold for around $300k (I got way out bid). Obviously, this one is under contract so somebody think’s it a good deal but I’m wondering what you guys think. Do you like the private terrace? I never actually see folks on those terraces.   It was listing for $309,000. Sound reasonable?

Good Deal or Not? “Investment Opportunity” Edition

The flier says:

“Great investment opportunity in the heart of Adams Morgan 4 level, 4500+ SF, ton’s of original detail, pocket doors, formal dining room , HWF’s, 9+ ceilings, finished basement.”

More info and frustratingly no photos here.

Well, let’s assume it needs a lot of work because of the lack of photos. But if as they say there is lots of original detail that may be pretty sweet. But would you call something an investment property if it’s on the market for $739,000?

Good Deal or Not? I think I May Have Taken The Wrong Picture Edition

This condo is located at 1812 Wyoming Ave., NW in Adams Morgan:


View Larger Map

The flier says:

“Improved Price! Elegant main level of gracious Kalorama townhome, Prvt entrance (above street lvl), lrg windows, tall ceilings, Raised Dining area, renov galley kit w/ granite/stainless (Bosch refrig), MBR w/ MBA & expansive outdoor deck, W/ D in unit, 2nd BR/Den w/ period mantel/FP, Conveniently located in Kalorama/Adams Morg, Harris Teeter, restaurants/shops all close.”

More info and a virtual tour can be found here.

While the photo I took says 1812 I believe this particular unit is located in the rowhome next door. (Those are the photos from Redfin.) That is a pretty wild building in the photo above. I guess there is a staircase in the middle of that structure? Anyway, back to the condo – it looks pretty sweet from the virtual tour. It’s also a stone’s throw from 18th Street. So do you think the new price of $524,000 sounds reasonable?
