In Under Contract, UrbanTurf looks back at properties it has featured recently that were snatched up by DC’s alert buyers.

Detached Home in Lamond Riggs

After being on the market for about two and a half weeks, this small home was snapped up by a buyer late last week. The listing is a rare detached home located within the District borders listed at an asking price (just) below $300,000. We’ll see what the final sale price is when the home closes later this fall. The home is on the small side, with only two bedrooms, but has a lawn, backyard, front porch and basement to give it the full house experience. Located in Lamond Riggs, on the northeast corner of DC, the home is about a mile from the Takoma Park metro station and is within walking distance of the town and farmer’s market.

• Address: 43 Sheridan Street NE (map)
• Price: $299,000
• Bedrooms: Two
• Bathrooms: One
• Year Built: 1942
• Days on Market: 18

Ample Storage in South Adams Morgan

This condo is located at a very convenient intersection — 18th Street NW, Florida Avenue and U Street NW — which puts it within walking distance of Dupont Circle, Adams Morgan and the 14th Street Corridor. The location, as well as the bright unit itself, attracted attention as soon as the listing hit the market, and it went under contract within three days. The listing is compactly laid out, with the living room opening directly onto both the kitchen and bedroom. The galley kitchen is tight, but provides sufficient countertop area, and the bedroom has a full wall of closet space.

• Address: 1820 T Street NW #3 (map)
• Price: $399,000
• Bedrooms: One
• Bathrooms: One
• Square Footage: 1918
• HOA Fees: $165
