A Six-Day Sale in Adams Morgan

This corner condo in Adams Morgan is sure to chase away the winter doldrums with its abundance of natural light, as its high-ceilinged interior features a sunroom-like trapezoidal living room nook and tall windows in each of its two bedrooms. The sense of lightness is heightened in the otherwise industrial-style unit as the exposed exhaust pipes and concrete pillars are painted white to blend in with the walls. With side-by-side bedrooms are off a long entry hall, each has a walk-in closet with extensive built-in shelving, the condo is more than suitable for roommates. The unit also has a triangular private balcony and is wired with a speaker system; access to a separate storage space and reserved parking spot are also included. The unit found a buyer in just under a week.

A Few Business Days on Upshur

A short walk from Grant Circle and a few blocks from one of the city's hottest restaurant rows lies this renovated rowhouse with an unassuming exterior that doesn't hint at the nearly 1,700 square feet of space inside. The four-bedroom house has a brick-lined entry hall running parallel to the living room, from which the rest of the open main floor extends. Next is the dining room and the kitchen with breakfast bar, which leads to a spacious mudroom/bonus room with access to the rear wooden deck. Three bedrooms are on the second floor, making the finished attic suitable as the fourth bedroom or as an office. The lower level is an in-law suite with two separate entrances, one of which goes out to the deep backyard and, just beyond, the two-car parking pad. The home found a buyer in just five days.

• Bedrooms: Four
• Bathrooms: 3.5
