Under a Week for an Arlington Bungalow with Plenty of Character

This updated two-bedroom bungalow in Arlington’s Lee Heights neighborhood is full of character and has been thoughtfully renovated, which may have helped it fly off the market in just five days. The home itself is a bit on the small side at 1,300 square feet, but the basement is fully finished with a second full bathroom and provides a comfortable family living space. Upstairs, everything has been redone and updated. There’s a generous front porch overlooking the yard, which has a long gravel driveway.

• Full Listing: 4638 23rd Street North, Arlington, VA (map)
• Price: $799,000
• Days on Market: 5
• Bedrooms: Two
• Bathrooms: Two
• Year Built: 1930
• Listing Agent: Jennifer Wong, W Homes

Over $1 Million and Gone in 5 Days in Chevy Chase

Surrounded by a white picket fence, this four-bedroom on Nevada Avenue is the quintessential home that one finds in Chevy Chase DC — and it’s a type that’s apparently in demand, judging by how quickly it went off the market. The house has a large family room in the back that leads to a screened-in porch and a big backyard. The second level has a spacious master bedroom as well as two other good-sized bedrooms. The finishing touches are a finished lower level and a garage out back.

• Price: $1.219 million
• Days on Market: 5
• Bedrooms: Four
• Bathrooms: 3.5
