Woodridge Bungalow a Charming Mix of New and Old

UrbanTurf featured this quaint bungalow in Woodridge on Friday. It found a buyer by Sunday. The 1930’s home has a lot of character, with decorative ceiling tiles and a brick fireplace to balance out the updated kitchen and bathrooms. Although two bedrooms and a bathroom are on the ground floor, there is also an attic and a finished, carpeted basement with a separate entrance, full bed and bath. The good-sized backyard and two-car garage likely helped the owner get the asking price or perhaps a bit more.

• Full Listing: 3714 26th Street NE (map)
• Price: $449,900
• Bedrooms: Three
• Bathrooms: Two
• Days on Market: Four
• Year Built: 1931
• Listing Agent: Kymber Lovett-Menkiti, Keller Williams Capital Properties

A Two-Bedroom Penthouse in Woodley

This 1,300 square-foot unit on the top-floor of a converted row house a few blocks south of the Zoo sat on the market longer than the seller would’ve liked, but went under contract this weekend.

Once the asking price was dropped by $20,000, the unit found a buyer.

After ten days on the market, the three-bedroom found a buyer.

A Small, Stylish Co-op on Adams Mill

UrbanTurf featured a one-bedroom co-op in this Adams Morgan building in late 2015 that sold in a few days, and this unit followed suit. The 740 square-foot one-bedroom, plus den listing is quite bright thanks to a number of windows on one side of the co-op. There is a small den just off the living room for extra space, as well as a washer/dryer. The unit went under contract nine days after hitting the market.
