On the ground level, an open-concept kitchen with exposed brick, a white subway tile backsplash, light wood cabinetry and tile flooring opens to a back patio and a small, concrete yard beyond.

Mid-Century Modern Next to American University
Located on a lot next to American University, this mid-century modern home hasn't been on the market in sixty years. With the exception of a few updates for modern conveniences, the design and finishes haven't been touched - and still exude that classic feel. UrbanTurf's favorite feature of the home is the library, with floor-to-ceiling shelving, backed by wood panels. The bedrooms are all fairly spacious and the primary suite includes two closets and an en-suite bathroom with colorful tiles. Downstairs, the basement is semi-finished and also includes floor-to-ceiling wooden planking, similar to what is seen in the library. The yard includes lots of bushes and a stone path.
- Full Listing: 4400 Springdale St NW (map)
- Price: $1,150,000
- Bedrooms: Three
- Bathrooms: 2.5
- Square Feet: 2,057
- Year Built: 1953

A Sunny Dupont Condo
This front-facing condo in The Cairo along 16th Street includes exposed brick and lots of sun thanks to windows on multiple sides of the unit. Built in an L-shape, the open living space is accessible through the kitchen - which has lots of wood cabinetry storage, dark counters and stainless-steel appliances. The primary suite opens with two French doors and includes a long closet along one of the long walls. The best feature of The Cairo may be the roof deck, which features 360-degree views of the city, as the building was erected before DC height limits were enacted.

- Price: $565,000
- Bedrooms: Two
- Bathrooms: One
- Square Feet: 735
