Spacious and Fancy in Penn Quarter

Life in a condo doesn’t have to be cramped, and this one, located in Terrell Place, has 1,410 square feet to move around in. The Penn Quarter high-rise where the two-bedroom is located was built in 2003 in a luxury fashion, and the living area and master suite of the recently-listed home are particularly spacious. The entire complex, which includes commercial office space and Rosa Mexicana restaurant, is also quite green, having earned LEED Platinum certification.

• Full listing: 675 E Street NW, #510 (map)
• Price: $799,000
• Bedrooms: Two
• Bathrooms: Two
• Square Footage: 1,410
• Listing Agent: David DeSantis, TTR Sotheby’s International Realty

Fenced-In Takoma Park Bungalow

Though a detached house, this Takoma Park bungalow is smaller than the Penn Quarter condo above. The lot, however, is quite large at about a fifth of an acre. Surrounded by a fence, the property has some attractive outdoor spaces, like a back deck with space for a grill and seating, a wide front porch, and a grassy, relatively private front yard. The finished basement also adds livable space. The room could be used as a rec area or guest room, and there is an attached bathroom down there as well.

• Full listing: 419 Ethan Allen Ave, Takoma Park, MD (map)
• Price: $429,000
• Bedrooms: Three
• Bathrooms: Two
• Square Footage: 1931
• Listing Agent: Daniel Metcalf, Long & Foster Real Estate

Charmingly Renovated Brookland Three-Bedroom

This Brookland house has an classically homey facade and a charmingly renovated interior. The most striking room might be the kitchen, with its industrial light fixtures, white cabinets and black stone countertops. The layout includes some surprises, like a skinny sitting room attached to the second bedroom, a narrow room that could be used as an office or nursery, and a walk-in closet with enough space for a vanity. There is also a workspace and bathroom in the basement.

• Price: $525,000
• Bedrooms: Three
• Bathrooms: 2.5
