The layout features a double living room anchored by a brick fireplace and a dining room that seats ten, as well as six bedrooms, an attached garage, and a fully finished basement complete with a second kitchen, separate bedroom, and its own laundry. Up top, a newly reworked fourth level with skylights and built-in nooks can serve as a guest retreat or a work-from-home haven.

The Rosedale Anti-Flip

This two-bedroom Rosedale charmer was thoughtfully improved by its owner over time, from a custom patio installed during Covid (which could easily convert to a parking pad) to a clever Murphy bed-slash-desk that acknowledges the hard truth that out-of-town guests eventually need a real bed. Inside, the updates are equally considered: a re-tiled bathroom with bold pops of color and a skylight that makes waking up actually pleasant. And for those who land on the front porch — situated right across from Rosedale Recreation — here's a little-known fact to sweeten the deal: that playground was designed to mirror the layout of the National Mall.

• Full Listing: 619 18th Street NE (map)
• Price: $525,000
• Bedrooms: Two
• Bathrooms: One
• Year Built: 1927
• Listing Agent: Graham Grossman, Compass
