A $36,000 Premium in Woodbridge
The fairly traditional layout of this three-bedroom home in Woodridge attracted a few bidders and the home ultimately sold for $36,000 above its asking price. UrbanTurf's favorite feature of the home is the new kitchen - where there's no shortage of space for storage or food preparation and light gray cabinets match the tile floor. A fireplace draws the eye to the living room and a screened-in patio offers access to the backyard. The new owners probably like the basement which has a family room, additional laundry/rec room and additional bedroom.
- Full Listing: 3210 20th Street NE (map)
- Asking Price: $749,000
- Sales Price: $785,000
- Bedrooms: Three

A $100 Premium For a Corner Condo Near Union Station
Sandwiched between Union Market and Union Station, this two-bedroom corner condo sold just barely above asking with a $100 premium. Though many fixtures, such as the stainless-steel appliances, help the space to feel updated, the dark cabinetry, and carved wooden front door create a more classic aesthetic. UrbanTurf especially loves the white brick on the back wall and the bottom portion of the unit that could be perfect for storage. Two off-street parking spaces are included with the listing and one of them is currently being leased for $200/month.
- Full Listing: 1038 5th Street NE, #1 (map)
- Asking Price: $499,900
- Sales Price: $500,000
- Bedrooms: Two
- Bathrooms: Two
- Square Feet: 685
- Year Built: 1930
- Listing Agent: Tyler Beale, Compass
