A Loft in a Former Auto Body Shop

UrbanTurf has covered the Rainbow Lofts at 1445 Church Street NW before, because it’s rare to find true loft-style living in the District. These units in a converted auto body shop about a block west of the Circle deliver with high ceilings, open floor plans and exposed brick and beams. This two-bedroom unit has built-in storage and comes with its own parking space.

  • Full Listing: 1445 Church Street NW #24 (map)
  • Price: $874,900
  • HOA Fees: $562/month
  • Bedrooms: Two
  • Bathrooms: Two
  • Year Built: 1929
  • Listing Agent: Robert Johnston, Keller Williams Realty

A Two-Bedroom Condo in a Lanier Heights Rowhouse

This converted Lanier Heights rowhouse has a rare quality: it’s completely detached from its neighbors. That means side windows where walls would usually be and no noisy next-door neighbors. This top-floor, two-bedroom unit has a window-lined living room with a fireplace, a dining room with access to a private roof deck and a modern kitchen and bar. Though the common space is well-lit, a window in one of the two bedrooms is strangely situated.

  • Full Listing: 2922 18th Street NW #3 (map)
  • Price: $774,900
  • HOA Fees: $325/month
  • Bedrooms: Two
  • Bathrooms: Two
  • Year Built: 1925
  • Listing Agent: Nathan Guggenheim, Washington Fine Properties
