The second floor has three bedrooms and in the backyard are raised garden beds and fruit trees.

A Brookland Farmhouse With a Deep Backyard
There are far too few farmhouses within the DC borders, but here is one that will look quite attractive with a little TLC. The Brookland three-bedroom has a small front porch bordered by three large trees and a sunny family room that leads out to a rear deck and then down to a deep backyard. Upstairs are three good-sized bedrooms and downstairs the basement is unfinished.
- Full Listing: 3013 15th Street NE (map)
- Price: $539,900
- Bedrooms: Three
- Bathrooms: Two
- Year Built: 1925
- Listing Agent: Tamara Kucik, W.C. & A.N. Miller
Two-Bedroom Penthouse in Mount Vernon Square
The top-floor unit in a rowhouse that was converted into four condos in 2009, this two-bedroom has the makings of a listing that will move fast. Exposed brick frames one side of the large, bright living and kitchen space and there is a nice window nook where two chairs are currently positioned. If there is a downside to this penthouse unit it is that there is just one bathroom.

- Price: $574,900
- Bedrooms: Two
- Bathrooms: One
