Two-Bedroom Penthouse at Yale Steam Laundry

This 1,115 square-foot penthouse at Yale Steam Laundry maximizes its location: the living room windows point right at the Capitol and the master bedroom has two walls of windows offering a lofty view above the DC skyline.

The main building has 16 loft-style condos, a fitness center, billiards room, and a rooftop pool. The second building has approximately 130 units that offer more traditional floorplans.

One-Bedroom Industrial-Style Loft on the Fringe of Columbia Heights

The 38-unit Lamont Street Lofts doesn’t just have an industrial feel — it’s one of the only residential buildings among warehouses near the the intersection of Lamont Street and Georgia Avenue. Designed by Bonstra Haresign Architects in 2004 and completed in ’05, the loft is full of urban, industrial trimmings like concrete walls, barn-door dividers and exposed brick and ductwork. The 839 square-foot one-bedroom unit has a very open, rectangular floor plan that ends in a balcony, and the building is about a 13-minute walk from the center of Columbia Heights.

• Full listing: 701 Lamont Street NW, #27 (map)
• Price: $349,000
• Bedrooms: One
• Bathrooms: 1.5
• Square Footage: 839
• Listing Agent: Philip DiRuggiero, Long & Foster

Four-Bedroom Home on One of the Largest Lots in Glover Park

This four-bedroom makes good use of its lot (one of the largest in Glover Park) with a generous backyard and deck. The size in addition to the house’s placement at the end of a row means tons of light floods through the rooms. The home is well suited for a family, with spacious rooms, a high-end kitchen and an au pair suite downstairs. It is also just a five-minute walk to the restaurants and grocery stores along Wisconsin Avenue.

• Full listing: 2324 Huidekoper Place NW (map)
• Price: $795,000
• Bedrooms: Four
• Bathrooms: Four
• Year Built: 1936
• Listing Agent: Bonnie Roberts-Burke, Evers & Company
