Rehabbed Three-Bedroom Wardman in Petworth

Like many homes in Petworth, this home was a foreclosure that was purchased last year and then extensively rehabbed and renovated. On the rear of the first level is now a small sun room that looks out onto a back deck and yard, and there is a similar room on the second level with a number of windows that offers the same view. The Wardman also has a two-car garage and a backyard that looks like it could be seeded to make a nice lawn. For the full listing, click here.

Two-Bedroom Condo Alternative Between Adams Morgan and Meridian Hill Park

For buyers that are in the market for a two-bedroom property without the condo/co-op fees, this Ontario Street listing might make for a good option. The row house sits about equidistant from 18th Street in Adams Morgan and Meridian Hill Park on 16th Street and the first level has a small dining area, a step-down living room with a fireplace and French doors that lead out to a back garden. Unlike a lot of listings of this size in the city, both bedrooms in the home offer a fair amount of space. As for light, there are three skylights on the second level, one in each bathroom and another above the stairwell. For the full listing, click here.

Five-Bedroom Capitol Hill Victorian With Rental Potential

This five-bedrooom, three-story Victorian is located adjacent to Union Station, and like many homes of its size in and around Capitol Hill, it has a lower-level two-bedroom apartment that could be rented out if the new owner so desires. The home is connected by one, long staircase that runs through the middle of the home connecting the living and dining spaces with the bedrooms, office and outdoor deck areas on the upper floors. In addition to three fireplaces throughout the house, there is a small outdoor patio in back and a garage that looks to be able to fit one car. For the full listing, click here.
