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

A Week for a Classic Victorian Rowhouse near the Capitol

This home — not far from the real-life Alpha House — was under contract after about a week on the market. The in-law suite in the basement may have helped convince a buyer that the price was worth it. The home was updated and restored while maintaining some historic details, like the hardwood floors and the fireplace in the middle of the kitchen, and there’s a patio out back with a built-in brick barbecue.

• Address: 301 C Street SE (map)
• Days on Market: 8
• Price: $1,175,000
• Bedrooms: Three
• Bathrooms: Three
• Square Footage: 2,089
• Listing Agent: Meg Shapiro, RE/MAX Allegiance
