A Familiar Mount Pleasant Two-Bedroom For Longtime Condo Hunters

If you have been looking for a two-bedroom condo in DC for the past year, then this unit in Mount Pleasant might look familiar. (It sold back in January for about $90,000 more than what it is currently listed for.) The 1,680 square-foot renovated condo sits on the first two levels of a renovated early 20th century townhouse. It has a large living room and master bedroom, exposed brick and oak floors throughout, and a parking space in back. We are not sure what the condo fee includes, but it is one of the lowest that we have seen in this neighborhood in some time ($159/month). For the full listing, click here.

More Loft Living in Capitol Hill

We know that the units at Bryan School are not for every buyer in the market for a one or two-bedroom condo, but UrbanTurf has taken quite a liking to these loft-like units in recent months. This 1,278 square-foot, one-bedroom loft has a huge living space, eight windows, custom built-ins and closet systems, wood floors throughout, washer/dryer, a private patio area and a parking space. The listing has also one of the more creative tag lines (James Bond meets Rock Hudson in Pillow Talk) in some time. For the full listing, click here.
