All Renovated in Mount Pleasant

We featured this two-bedroom in Mount Pleasant as a Deal of the Week on June 29th, and it was under contract by July 1st. We described the condo as a work in progress for the following reasons: In 2006, the unit got all-new windows; in 2007, a new HVAC system was installed and last year both the kitchen and bathroom were renovated. In addition to these improvements, the living area has hardwood floors and a fireplace as well as a wall of windows that flood the space with natural light. There is also a separate dining space and an additional seating area, and the unit has access to rental parking for $100 a month.

Columbia Heights Condo with Space (Both Indoor and Outdoor)

Two weeks ago in Best New Listings, we featured this two-bedroom unit tucked away on Holmead Place in Columbia Heights, and one commenter noted that the ceilings were a little low. That clearly didn’t bother an eager buyer as it was under contract one day after we featured it. In addition to an off-street parking space and a small rear patio, the condo has a large living area with wood floors, a good-sized kitchen and a spacious master bedroom (the second bedroom is a bit smaller). To top it off, the unit has remarkably low condo fees ($136).
