Deal of the Week: A Capitol Hill Renovation Project
623 F Street NE
As home buyers go, there are usually three kinds:
- Those that want to move into something in turn-key condition.
- Those that buy a home with the plan to renovate and update it over the course of a few years.
- Those that want a complete fixer-upper.
This three-bedroom Victorian in Capitol Hill falls into the second category and based on the 35 groups that stopped by the open house on Sunday, it won’t last long.
Built over a century ago, the interior spreads out over about 2,400 square feet — 1,800 square feet on the main and upper floors and over 500 square feet on the lower level. The oak floors, glass doors, sidelights and handrails are all still intact from when the home was originally built. While the home is being sold as is, the roof, water lines, windows and heating systems have been replaced recently or are in good shape.
Living Room
As far as price, the house next door — same size/shape/layout but renovated — sold for $805,000 last year, so at just south of $560,000, we think this looks like a bargain.
