The second bedroom is small and is currently being used as a nursery. The apartment was built in 2000 and the finishes and hardwood floors remain in good condition. The building comes with garage parking, front desk service and a roof patio.

Recently Renovated Three-Bedroom Rancher in Barnaby Woods

In 2011, this three-bedroom in the Barnaby Woods neighborhood (on the edge of the DC/MD border) underwent a renovation that corrected a design scheme deemed too modern for the 1950’s home: the owners created a more traditional kitchen, installed crown molding in many rooms, installed built-in shelving in the den and replaced flat wooden doors with traditional, paneled doors throughout the house. The home has a number of living areas, including a large living room, den and family room, and the three bedrooms are all spacious enough for Queen-sized beds.

• Full listing: 3275 Van Hazen Street NW (map)
• Price: $759,000
• Bedrooms: Three
• Bathrooms: Two
• Year Built: 1952
• Listing Agent: Katrina Schymik, McEnearney Associates
