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

Dupont Circle Condo With a Clawfoot Bathtub

Featured as one of our Best New Listings just over a week ago, this one-bedroom condo in a prime location found a buyer in just six days. In addition to the Dupont Circle address, we admired the cute details, like a decorative backsplash in the kitchen, a stained glass light fixture in the bedroom, darkly wooded doors, and a clawfoot bathtub. There is also built-in shelving and cabinetry hidden in various places, like by the front door and between the kitchen and living room.

• Address: 1725 17th Street NW #415 (map)
• Price: $359,900
• Bedrooms: One
• Bathrooms: One
• HOA Fees: 644
• Days on Market: 6

Rowhouse East of Trinidad and the H Street Corridor

While the above listing may have one of the most sought-after addresses in town, this rowhouse is located a bit off the developed track. A half-mile east of the intersection of H Street NE and Bladensburg, the home is in Carver/Langston, east of Trinidad. However, the three-bedroom home is well-renovated, well-priced, and equipped with three parking spaces. The home was snapped up in just one week.

• Address: 1820 H Place NE (map)
• Price: $299,555
• Bedrooms: Three
• Bathrooms: 1.5
• Year Built: 1941
• Days on Market: 7

Takoma Park Colonial With A Decorative Curio Cabinet

This Takoma Park three-bedroom took a bit longer to find the right buyer, and went under contract last week after just about one month on the market. The charming home was built in 1938, and we liked the large fireplace in the living room, heavy wooden staircase, black and white tiling in the bathroom, and curio cabinets built into the corners of the dining room. Like many Takoma Park homes, this property also has an inviting, large, shaded backyard.

• Address: 408 Mississippi Avenue, Silver Spring, MD (map)
• Price: $549,900
• Bedrooms: Three
• Bathrooms: Three
• Year Built: 1938
• Days on Market: 30
