First Time on the Market in 70 Years

This Capitol Hill home has been owned by the same family since 1946, and the layout remains traditional. There is a wide foyer when you enter with the living room on the right. Through that room is a separate dining room, and behind that is a kitchen that, while nice, shows its age. Upstairs, there is a cool sitting area off one of the main bedrooms. The home has a two-car garage.

• Full Listing: 503 3rd Street SE (map)
• Price: $935,000
• Bedrooms: Four
• Bathrooms: Two
• Year Built: 1911
• Listing Agent: John Smith, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices PenFed Realty

The home comes with a full package for a small family — three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a screened-in front porch and a rear deck. It sits about a mile away from the Medical Center Metro station.

• Full Listing: 5206 Chandler Street (map)
• Price: $599,000
• Bedrooms: Three
