What $4,000 Rents You in the DC Area
This week in What X Rents You, UrbanTurf looked in the $4,000 a month range for the DC area to see what that price point gets renters out there. Admittedly high, this is a rental price point for tenants that will be shacking up with at least two other people or those with large families.

A Burleith Three-Bedroom Without the Controversy
UrbanTurf readers may remember back in late-2010 when we reported on a coalition of Burleith neighborhood groups who spent two months (yes, two months) walking the neighborhood identifying what they believe are illegal rentals. Hopefully this three-bedroom has all its papers in order. The row home could be a good option for three roommates who want to live near, but not in, Georgetown. It has a good-sized back deck, patio, and yard, the lower level is fully built out with a bedroom, living area and a separate entrance, and the rental comes with garage parking. A minimum 12-month lease is required and it is available immediately.
- Full Listing: 3546 T Street NW (map)
- Rent: $4,000 per month
- Bedrooms: Three
- Bathrooms: Two
- Square Footage: 1,600

Space Over Proximity in 4,000 Square-Foot Silver Spring Mansion
For renters that prize space over location, this five-bedroom home 15 minutes north of the Glenmont Metro Station could be a good option. In addition to a huge lot and massive yard (see above), the 4,000 square-foot three-level home has five bedrooms, 3.5 baths and a lot of living space. It is the first time that the home has hit the rental market, so no pets are allowed.
- Full Listing: Barn Ridge, Silver Spring (map)
- Rent: $3,950 per month
- Bedrooms: Five
- Bathrooms: 3.5
- Square Footage: 4,000

A Familiar Carriage House
If this carriage house looks familiar, it may be because it was featured in the article Shilpi Paul wrote about alley residences a few months ago. The home, built around 1890, near 5th and T Streets NW is split into two three-bedroom units, and the unit for rent is on the top level. In addition to a deck off the living room, the unit comes with some nice amenities including a 50-inch flat screen TV and a table that can fit 6-10 people. The unit has access to a garden, and parking is available under a separate contract.
- Full Listing: 5th and T Street NW (map)
- Rent: $3,900 per month
- Bedrooms: Three
- Bathrooms: Two
- Square Footage: 1,500
