• November 9, 2012

by Shilpi Paul

In this week’s edition of Best New Listings, we look at a two-level condo in Petworth, a sunny unit with French doors in Columbia Heights, and a renovated urban castle on Capitol Hill.

Two-Level Condo in a Petworth Rowhouse

This condo, which takes up the upper two levels of a Petworth rowhouse, will satisfy buyers who want the space and multi-level living of a house and the finishes of a condo. Renovated in 2007, the first floor has an open kitchen and living area, and the upper level has a massive master bedroom and two medium-sized additional bedrooms.With more width than the average rowhouse, the floors feel pretty spacious. An added bonus is that the monthly condo fees are on the low end at $215 per month.

Sunny Colors and French Doors in Columbia Heights

Maybe it’s the golden paint, but the living area in this Columbia Heights condo feels extremely sunny. The yellow shade covers every inch of the living room and kitchen, which are both on the small side but well-finished. At the back of the living room, French doors lead to another area that could be a sitting room, an office, or a second bedroom. The master bedroom is more private and has what looks like extensive closet space, helpful in a 600-square foot unit. The building was built in 1925, and the unit comes with garage parking and a storage space.

Renovated Urban Castle on Capitol Hill

This newly renovated, turreted five-bedroom on Capitol Hill is full of interesting nooks and skylights, and UrbanTurf was quite taken with its grandeur and all the open spaces. But since this is a listing from DC’s Poet Realtor, UrbanTurf will let his words speak for themselves. “Lock7development, one of very few builders offering brains & beauty in equal proportion, brings you a born-again phoenix, Rapunzel’s turreted tower, with avian rooms and the flow of a big jungle cat. Feel so famous you’ll have groupies count the windows. Why is the Paparazzi hanging around out front?”

• Price: $1.095 million
• Bedrooms: Five
• Bathrooms: 3.5
• Year Built: 1900
• Listing Agent: Thomas Faison, RE/MAX Allegiance
