by Nena Perry-Brown

In this edition of Under Contract, UrbanTurf looks at recently-featured homes which all found buyers in under a week.

Under Contract: Gone in a Week or Less: Figure 1

Capitol Hill Rowhouse with Loft-Like Main Floor

This Victorian rowhouse has plenty of interesting architectural details both inside and outside, from the cast iron staircase leading to the entrance to the loft-style of the sunken kitchen/dining rom. Touches of quirk were also reflected in the leaded glass windows and gradient tiling in the master bathroom. At five days, this home spent the shortest amount of time on the market of all the listings featured this week.

Milking the Most out of Pre-Paid Parking

Although this circa-1900 Georgetown Federal rowhouse may look quaint from the outside, it offers a lot of surprises throughout its three levels. The main floor features a unique living room/sunroom with a pitched glass ceiling and backyard access. Upstairs, the second bedroom can be bisected by sliding panels, and the home also has a basement. With a bonus parking space that has been paid through the end of the year, this home was snapped up in just under a week.
