What Does $400K Buy You in DC?

by Mark Wellborn

image

We featured this two-bedroom condo on 16th Street a few months ago in our Best Open Houses feature. The price was recently reduced by about $25K which makes it a very attractive option in this section of DC.

image

The unit is in a Federal rowhouse that was built in 1837. Both bedrooms are decent sized, have large windows and a good amount of storage space (one could also serve as a den). The bathroom was recently renovated and the home has a washer and dryer and a brand new stainless steel refrigerator. The property is an eight-minute walk from the U Street/Cardozo Metro stop on the green line and a ten-minute walk from Dupont Circle. More details below.

  • Address: 1919 16th Street NW, #6 (see map here)
  • Price: $399,000
  • Bedrooms: Two
  • Bathrooms: One
  • Condo Fees: $178/month

    based on floor plans I’d say this place is pretty small, but well located and very sunny.  On a related note, I just bought a 2-br/1-ba on at 18 and florida for $400k.  it is also on the petite side at about 720 sf, but well-located and well-renovated.  $400k is going a lot farther these days!
