Best New Listings: 70 Years on Capitol Hill, A Deal in Bethesda

• November 20, 2015

by Tianna Mañón

In this week’s Best New Listings, UrbanTurf looks at a Capitol Hill home that has been in the same family since 1946, a bargain in Bethesda, and a two-bedroom penthouse in Woodley Park.

First Time on the Market in 70 Years

This Capitol Hill home has been owned by the same family since 1946, and the layout remains traditional. There is a wide foyer when you enter with the living room on the right. Through that room is a separate dining room, and behind that is a kitchen that, while nice, shows its age. Upstairs, there is a cool sitting area off one of the main bedrooms. The home has a two-car garage.

• Full Listing: 503 3rd Street SE (map)
• Price: $935,000
• Bedrooms: Four
• Bathrooms: Two
• Year Built: 1911
• Listing Agent: John Smith, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices PenFed Realty

A Three-Bedroom Find in Bethesda

Single-family homes in Bethesda rarely drop below the $700,000 price point, particularly if they don’t need work, which is why this three-bedroom Cape Cod is a good find. The home comes with a full package for a small family — three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a screened-in front porch and a rear deck. It sits about a mile away from the Medical Center Metro station.

• Full Listing: 5206 Chandler Street (map)
• Price: $599,000

The two-level floorplan is set up with the living room and kitchen area on one floor, and the bedrooms on the other. The listing comes with two-car tandem parking, as well as a private roof deck.
