Best New Listings: Outdoor Space in Spades

• June 13, 2014

by Lark Turner

In this week’s Best New Listings, UrbanTurf looks at three listings that each offer a different type of outdoor space for eventual buyers.

A Three-Bed Bungalow in Shepherd Park

This detached three-bedroom has a wide front porch and a classic bungalow style often seen in this section of DC. Inside there’s a traditionally segmented layout. The basement is finished with a full bathroom and the upstairs bathroom has a large skylight. The best features are perhaps those outside — a rear deck and screened porch facing the back yard.

• Full Listing: 1204 Holly Street NW (map)
• Price: $674,900
• Bedrooms: Three
• Bathrooms: Two
• Year Built: 1922
• Listing Agents: Lee Goldstein, Evers & Company Real Estate

A Penthouse with a Private Deck between Dupont and Logan

This two-story, 1,300 square foot unit between Dupont Circle and Logan is in a very old building, but it’s hard to tell from the updated finishes and renovated interior. The living space has coffered ceilings and an open-concept kitchen, and there is a dining area with a fireplace. Upstairs a second living space opens onto one of the listing’s best features: Its own private roof deck. The listing also comes with a garage parking space, a critical amenity for those with cars in this neighborhood.

• Full Listing: 1603 16th Street NW, #5 (map)
• Price: $1,125,000
• HOA Fee: $393/month
• Bedrooms: Two
• Bathrooms: Two
• Year Built: 1870
• Listing Agents: Lindsay Reishman, Lindsay Reishman Real Estate

A Capitol Hill Condo with Private Outdoor Space

Just east of Lincoln Park is another two-story condo that will set you back quite a bit less than the previous listing. This one is on the first and basement levels of a small condominium building. The open living room on the bright first floor and the private patio space out back add to its appeal. Other noteworthy features about the unit are the wood-burning fireplace, washer/dryer and low monthly fees.

• Full Listing: 1341 East Capitol Street SE, #108 (map)
• Price: $428,500
• HOA Fee: $186/month
• Bedrooms: Two
• Bathrooms: 1.5
• Year Built: 1900
• Listing Agents: Todd Bissey, John C. Formant Real Estate
