A Quintessential Foursquare

This listing along Emerson Street is one of the quintessential American Foursquares that can be found in the 16th Street Heights neighborhood. The five-bedroom still has many of its original elements, including banisters, doors and floors. UrbanTurf's favorite parts of the home are the wraparound porch and the bright, open main level that has a very cozy feel when it is flooded with light. The listing also has a fully finished basement with an in-law suite and a fenced-in yard.

• Price: $1,149,900

A Century Old With Updates

Built by renowned architect Lewis Giles, this five-bedroom, like the listing above, maintains many of the original details from when it was constructed in 1937, while also having nearly half a million dollars of improvements made by the sellers in recent years. In addition to five bedrooms, the home has living room with wood-burning fireplace, a separate dining room, not one, but two family rooms. There is also an in-law suite on the lower level and out back, a landscaped backyard, vegetable/flower garden and a two-car garage.
