In What X Buys You this week, UrbanTurf takes a look at properties on the market in the $700,000 range to give readers an idea of what type of homes are available in this price point in the DC area.

Two-Bedroom in Columbia Heights Condo Conversion
As HipchickinDC reported, the row house at 1480 Harvard Street NW sold for $700,000 last year, when it was in rough shape. Hipchick correctly assumed that a developer has scooped up the property; the home is now a condo conversion with four units. This condo takes up the top two levels of the building, and the developer made some stylish choices, putting in oversized windows, a shower for two, and a large rooftop deck. The window in the shower of the second bathroom, however, may deter shy buyers.
- Full Listing: 1480 Harvard Street NW, #4 (map)
- Price: $699,900
- Bedrooms: Two
- Bathrooms: Two
- Square Footage: 1,050
- HOA Fees: $172/month
- Listing Agent: Trent Heminger, Beasley Real Estate

H Street Corridor Rowhouse With a Finished Carriage House
While this H Street Corridor Victorian is charming in its own right, the coolest thing about it is in the backyard: a two-story, finished carriage house. The first floor of the structure has everything needed for day-to-day life — a hearth-like fireplace, a basic kitchen, a bathroom, and a bedroom area — while the upstairs is peaceful and blank, and could be used as an office, studio or TV-watching room. Interesting features of the main house include a window seat in the kitchen, and a pond with fish in the backyard.
- Full Listing: 816 I Street NE (map)
- Price: $699,900
- Bedrooms: Five
- Bathrooms: 2.5
- Year Built: 1920
- Listing Agent: Brent Jackson, TTR Sotheby’s International Realty

Bethesda Cape Cod with Wood Paneling
This four-bedroom Cape Cod is on the market for the first time in years, and has been well maintained by a longtime owner. Some elements of the home have a retro appeal, like the upstairs bedroom completely outfitted with wood paneling. We also liked the large backyard, which has several different zones, like a brick patio, a sitting area with stone benches and stepping stones, and a grassy lawn.
- Full Listing: 9303 Jesup Lane, Bethesda, MD (map)
- Price: $700,000
- Bedrooms: Four
- Bathrooms: Two
- Year Built: 1941
- Listing Agent: Melinda Estridge, Long and Foster Real Estate
