In What X Buys You this week, UrbanTurf takes a look at properties on the market in the $800,000 range to give readers an idea of what type of homes are available in this price point in the DC area.

What $800,000 Buys You in the DC Area: Figure 1

Renovated Over a Decade on 10th Street

At some point, someone took down walls in this 10th Street Victorian; the first floor has one big, open room with two fireplaces, while the kitchen is a bit more private. Rather than an all-in-one flip, the home underwent a series of renovations over the course of a decade. The rental unit on the lower level will help offset the mortgage.

  • Full Listing: 1522 10th Street NW (map)
  • Price: $812,000
  • Bedrooms: Three
  • Bathrooms: 3.5
  • Year Built: 1890
  • Listing Agent: Thomas Castagnola, TTR Sotheby’s International Realty

As-Is Estate Sale Near Lincoln Park

Due to the lack of interior photos, we don’t know much about this home, and the as-is clause indicates that it will probably need work (and a few more bathrooms). However, it is huge, and could be turned into something quite nice. The Victorian has four stories, five bedrooms, and the owner seems to be expecting multiple bids: offers are due on May 6th.

  • Full Listing: 25 9th Street NE (map)
  • Price: $805,000
  • Bedrooms: Five
  • Bathrooms: 1.5
  • Year Built: 1900
  • Listing Agent: Dianne Thorne, Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage

Cleveland Park Tudor With Two Master Suites

Tudors, with their half-timbered exteriors, have a medieval charm that calls to mind European manor homes. This one could accommodate a traditional extended family: there are two master suites on the second floor, and a finished in-law suite on the lower level. UrbanTurf also liked the private patio in the back, the pretty flowers, and the mature trees. We hear that this home is expecting multiple offers.

  • Full Listing: 3616 Veazey Street NW (map)
  • Price: $799,900
  • Bedrooms: Two
  • Bathrooms: 2.5
  • Year Built: 1929
  • Listing Agent: Yolanda Mamone, McEnearney Associates
