A $37,000 Premium in the Heart of Historic Anacostia
Between Good Hope Road and the Frederick Douglass House in historic Anacostia, this detached three-bedroom home not only sold in six days, but also went for $37,000 above asking.

A fenced-in backyard offers plenty of green space with a garden on two sides and a wooden deck that runs the length of the yard and has a built-in bench seating and an attached shed.
