Dupont Circle Foreclosure Has a Fancy New Look
2126 R Street NW
UrbanTurf’s favorite Dupont Circle foreclosure is back on the market after undergoing a six-month renovation.
Down to five bedrooms from the original nine, the 5,600 square-foot house is now scrubbed up and fancy. The so-called “Georgetown-style renovation” includes the addition of an elevator, a fully integrated surround sound system, chef’s kitchen and rooftop terrace. The asking price is $3,490,000, which includes three parking spaces.
2126 R Street NW back in March
UrbanTurf has been intrigued by this home (foreclosures in Dupont Circle are, needless to say, uncommon) since it hit the market as a bank-owned property back in March for $1.4 million. The four-level house needed major interior and exterior work, including a total kitchen and bathroom overhaul, but garnered a ton of interest and was under contract within two days of being listed for just under the asking price.
In May, UrbanTurf got wind of details regarding the planned renovation; at the time, the buyer had dreams of turning the building, which is zoned for 4-5 separately metered units, into a super high-end home with a steam room and cigar bar. Neither of those amenities are in the new property, but it is now outfitted with a sauna, gym, bar area and large entertainment room.
