Under Contract: Bauhaus in Brookland Snapped Up

• January 22, 2013

by Shilpi Paul

In Under Contract this week, UrbanTurf looks back at properties it has featured over the past couple weeks that were snatched up by DC’s alert buyers in just a matter of days.

H Street One-Bedroom With a Walk-In Closet

This affordable, well-located condo was off the market just four days after it was listed. Perhaps the large walk-in closet with cool built-ins attracted attention or the hearth-looking over-sized fireplace or the address close to the H Street Corridor. Whatever it was, another rare affordable home in the city has been snapped up.

• Full listing: 676 4th Street NE #101 (map)
• Price: $289,000
• Bedrooms: One
• Bathrooms: One
• Square Footage: 516
• Days on Market: 4

Mirrored Doors North of Dupont Circle

This Kalorama two-bedroom condo, recently featured in the same edition of Best New Listings as the unit above, found a buyer in five days. A few stylish elements — mirrored closet doors, shuttered windows, and a separate dining room — made the listing stand out from more typical options.

• Full listing: 2129 Florida Avenue NW, #4 (map)
• Price: $724,900
• Bedrooms: Two
• Bathrooms: Two
• Square Footage: 1,317
• Days on Market: 5

Bauhaus in Brookland

When we featured this Bauhaus renovation as This Week’s Find shortly before it went on the market ten days ago, readers quickly made the piece one of the most read articles of the week. The striking home loosely adheres to Bauhaus tenets that encourage modernity and an economical use of materials, visible in the clean lines of the kitchen and the generally open floor plan. Our readers’ interest in the home was matched in the (famously tight) market; the listing found a buyer within a week.

• Address: 3201 15th Street NE (map)
• Price: $649,000
• Bedrooms: Four
• Bathrooms: Three
• Days on Market: 6
