Best New Listings: 6,000 Square Feet, A Log Cabin and a Winery
In this week’s Best New Listings, UrbanTurf looks at a house near the Cathedral with a surprising basement, a traditional home with unorthodox colors off Georgia Avenue and a Maryland farm house that is a far cry from the typical ranch.

A Four-Bedroom Tucked Away Near the Cathedral
This four-bedroom is tucked away in a pocket off Wisconsin and Massachusetts Avenue NW where homes don’t frequently come on the market. The listing has a mostly traditional floor plan with a fireplace and built-in shelving in the living room and an updated kitchen with a thin island. The far wall of the kitchen is a set of double glass doors that lead to a stone patio and a landscaped yard with a pond. One of the best features of the house is the modern lower level, which was recently renovated. It has white tiled flooring, track lighting and built-in shelving to create a long entertainment system.

A Colorful Petworth Home
This six-bedroom home has great curb appeal with solid blue shutters against a white exterior. Bold color is actually a trend throughout the rest of the house as well: the living space is red, the dining room is green, and the kitchen is a deep blue. Upstairs, the bedrooms are sizable and the bathrooms are mostly simple. However, one has a skylight over the tub, giving potentially great light to relaxing homeowners. The backyard is large and landscaped with plenty of room for entertaining

Outside, there is a pool, a landscaped yard and parking for several cars.
