   That two-bedroom in Kalorama looks like a steal.

   $500/sf for a 2br is not a steal.

   It is one of the lowest priced two-bedrooms in the neighborhood.

   That’s like saying a 400sf studio at $250k is a good deal.

   Just because the sales price is less than comps, it doesn’t mean you’re getting your money’s worth.

   The solarium looks pretty amazing, although as a master bedroom you would be up at the crack of dawn without curtains.
