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

A Good Price in Chevy Chase DC

This semi-detached home with a fenced-in backyard and patio is priced in bargain territory by Chevy Chase DC standards. A side porch opens into the open-plan living room, which also features built-in shelving and plantation-shuttered windows. The main floor has an eat-in kitchen, while a finished attic nook can serve as the perfect office or playroom. Given its price, we suspect the home will find a buyer within the next few days.

The second bedroom is a bit on the small side, but Poliform walk-in closets in both bedrooms help minimize clutter.
