A Couple Weeks For A Victorian In Hyattsville

This three-bedroom listing in Hyattsville was built over 130 years ago, but taken down to the studs in 2001 and reconstructed. It was on the market for about 13 days before going under contract with contingencies earlier this month. One of the sellers favorite aspects is the open kitchen/family room where they spent most of their time, but UrbanTurf's favorite feature might be the screened back porch that overlooks a fig tree and river birch.

• Price: $785,000
• Bedrooms: Three
• Bathrooms: 2.5
• Square Feet: 2,326
• Year Built: 1891
