Four Days, Seven Offers, $48,000 Above Ask For A Hyattsville Bungalow

This 1926 bungalow in Hyattsville spent just a few days on the market before receiving seven offers and selling for $48,000 above its asking price. The home packs plenty of charm into 936 square feet, with heart pine and oak floors, high ceilings, and a wood-burning fireplace in the living room. The partially finished basement is a standout, outfitted with corrugated metal walls, a copper ceiling, and exposed copper pipes. Out back, a screened summer house with a green roof overlooks a goldfish pond, making for one of the more whimsical backyards on the market this week.
