In this week’s edition of Best New Listings, we look at a five-bedroom Dupont listing that has maintained its Victorian feel, a two-bedroom Columbia Heights condo, and a Burleith three-bedroom with an unexpected amenity.

Burleith Home Complete With a Greenhouse

A three-bedroom townhouse just popped up on the market in Burleith with a very interesting amenity. While the living room is comfortable, the kitchen is bright and modern and the master bedroom has a nicely sloped wall, the home’s coolest feature is definitely the tiled greenhouse, which the owners are currently using as an indoor patio. The colonial-style house also has a landscaped yard, comes with a parking space, and sits just about two blocks from Wisconsin Avenue.

• Full listing: 3613 T Street NW (map)
• Price: $745,000
• Bedrooms: Three
• Bathrooms: 2.5
• Square Footage: 1,452
• Listing Agent: Ellen Sandler, Evers & Company

Five-Bedroom Dupont Circle Listing That Still Feels Victorian

This Dupont Circle home, built in 1893, has maintained a lot of its Victorian-feeling architectural details, like the heavy doors, dangly chandeliers and fireplaces. Shallow but tall, the listing’s four levels have five bedrooms, but the galley kitchen is fairly tight and one of the bedrooms is around the same size as the master bedroom walk-in closet. The house comes with recreation areas in the finished basement and two parking spaces, a must in a neighborhood where finding street parking is a feat.

• Full Listing: 1628 Riggs Place NW (map)
• Price: $1.325 million
• Bedrooms: Five
• Bathrooms: 3.5
• Year Built: 1893
• Listing Agent: William F.X. Moody, Washington Fine Properties

Columbia Heights Condo Next to the Park

This two-bedroom listing is just a few blocks above U Street and half a block east of Meridian Hill Park. It has more nooks and crannies than your average boxy condo along with some high quality extras, like a whirlpool tub, energy-efficient windows and updated appliances. With 850 square feet, the skinny galley kitchen and small second bedroom are evidence of the limited space. This unit would be great for a couple who wants an office, and a large storage room conveys with the unit.

• Full Listing: 1427 Chapin Street NW, #201 (map)
• Price: $399,900
• Bedrooms: Two
• Bathrooms: One
• Square Footage: 850
• Listing Agent: Bryan Cantio, RE/MAX Allegiance
