A New Listing Worthy of Your Attention

  • May 1st 2009

by Mark Wellborn

It is not often that we stray from our once a week publication of the best new listings in the DC area, but we got wind of a property that just went on the market and we think that there is a good chance that it won’t be around in a few days.

Living Area

It is a one-bedroom condo located in the former Italian Embassy at 1863 Kalorama Road (see map here). While the unit still has its original fireplace and wood floors, it also has many modern touches including an open-design kitchen and living area with a marble island that could also be used as a dining table. There are three large south-facing windows on one wall of the living area and the bedroom is located in the back of the condo away from the street. For the price, you’d be hard pressed to find a better deal in this neighborhood. For the full listing, click here.
