Four-Bedroom Between Bloomingdale and Shaw

This renovated four-bedroom has a short, narrow footprint, and some potential buyers may have been turned off by the lack of a dining room area. However, the location and good condition appealed to someone: the listing went under contract in just a week. The home is located just below Florida Avenue on 4th Street NW, within a three block radius of several cool neighborhood amenities, including the Shaw Metro station, Big Bear cafe, and the Howard Theater.

• Address: 1706 4th Street NW (map)
• Price: $575,000
• Bedrooms: Four
• Bathrooms: 2.5
• Year Built: 1900
• Days on Market: 7
