• November 21, 2014

by Lark Turner

In this week’s edition of Best New Listings, UrbanTurf looks at homes in Truxton Circle, American University Park and Kalorama.

A Rooftop For Projecting Movies in Truxton Circle

This turn-of-the-century rowhouse is tucked between two larger neighbors in Truxton Circle. The home was purchased in August for $405,000, but it is a bit different from the usual flip; the renovation has a stripped-away industrial look with exposed metal beams and a minimalist staircase. A modern kitchen with a small eat-in area leads out to a back patio. Upstairs are two bedrooms, each with a full bath, as well as a large deck. One of the neighbors offers up a windowless blank wall that the listing notes would be perfect for projecting movies.
