This week’s Best New Listings include a four-bedroom rowhouse in Mount Pleasant and a 1,500 square-foot two-bedroom in Logan Circle.

Four Bedrooms in Sought-After Mount Pleasant

Mount Pleasant remains one of the most competitive housing markets in DC, and homes like this are the reason. The semi-detached four-bedroom rowhouse has an open main level that leads out to a large private back deck. There are two large bedrooms and a sitting room on the second level, and the loft-like third floor could also be used as a bedroom. The package is rounded out with two things that will help fetch above the asking price: an in-law suite in the basement and two-car parking out back.

• Full Listing: 2017 Klingle Road NW (map)
• Price: $949,900
• Bedrooms: Four
• Bathrooms: 4.5
• Year Built: 1921

   I went and visited the Klinge Road home over the weekend, ready to be amazed, however it has such quirky design decisions that I walked away confused. I must say it is a beautiful house in many respects that probably will be valuable to someone, but I would really list this home as a 2 bedroom home with a separate ground floor suite. It just doesn't appeal to me as a home for a family. 1) The biggest issue that struck me was that the stairwell to the basement level has been removed and replaced with a very odd sunken half-bath. So there is no interior access to the ground floor level, how strange. I would assume it makes the ground floor a nice illegal rental unit or completely separate in-law suite. 2) The kitchen was relatively small and the floor was inexplicably raised about 3-4 inches, almost a half step up, above the rest of the room. 3) The second floor only has 2 large bedrooms and the third floor attic height was too low for a functional space. 4) The attic bathroom was truly the strangest design I had ever seen. The toilet is raised up off the ground about 8 inches and the shower was tucked behind a wall and under the roof and could probably only fit a 5 foot tall person. There were a few other design choices that are very unusual from what I would expect in the neighborhood, but those are mostly personal preferences. Good luck to the seller.
