The ad says that the ideal move-in date is November 1st, but that it could be moved up if need be.

Dollar Stretching: A Three-Bedroom Colonial in Silver Spring

This three-level home is evidence that rent goes a little further the farther one gets from downtown DC. The colonial has a main level with a living room (and a fireplace), a dining room and a kitchen, and three bedrooms and two bathrooms on the second floor. There is a rec room on the lower level, and off the rear deck is a fairly large yard. It is about a 20-minute walk to the Silver Spring Metro on the Red Line — not around the corner, but also probably not a deal-breaker to most renters.

• Full Listing: 603 Bonifant Street, Silver Spring, MD (map)
• Rent: $2,800 a month
• Bedrooms: Three
• Bathrooms: Two
