Three Bedrooms and Two Yards in Northeast

Surprising as it may seem, one can still afford a move-in ready three-bedroom home in the District on this budget. This semi-detached home lies just east of the Anacostia River a few blocks south of Nannie Helen Burroughs Avenue. Living and dining areas run the length of the left side of the house, while a petite kitchen nook is tucked away at the rear, leading out to a deck overlooking the backyard. Two bedrooms share a bathroom upstairs, and an additional bedroom and full bath are on the lower level with a rec room and laundry area.
