This renovated three-bedroom in Petworth has a large open floor plan on the first floor that, combined with the hardwood floors, makes the property very inviting when you walk through the front door. There are two large bedrooms on the second floor, and one smaller room that could be used as a den or a bedroom. The basement includes a large recreation room and a small wine cellar. There is a patio in front of the house and a detached garage that is large enough for a small car in back. Since it was listed three months ago, the price has dropped $30K.

    You cannot be seriously calling a wire rack with wine bottles in a corner basement room a “wine cellar”.  If that’s the case, I got a “beer cellar” with a case of Magic Hat next to my junk boxes.
