In this edition of What X Buys, UrbanTurf looks in the $680,000 to $740,000 range to see what a DC buyer can expect to find with this budget.

A Spacious 16th Heights Family Home

This 16th Street Heights home is spacious and recently underwent a top-to-bottom renovation, but it still retains its older charm. For instance, the doorways have a darker wood that is reminiscent of design from decades past and it also retains its traditional layout. The ceilings are high and most rooms have recessed lighting, adding to the perceived height of the ceilings. The attic and the basement are both finished, increasing the usable square footage of the home and providing options for additional bedrooms or office space.

• Full Listing: 4408 15th Street NW (map)
• Price: $739,900
• Bedrooms: Four
• Bathrooms: 3.5
• Year Built: 1917
• Square Footage 2,652
• Listing Agent: Jessica Monat, McEnearney Associates

1,300 Square Feet Steps Away from Dupont Circle

This two-bedroom makes interesting use of its space. The living room and bedrooms are both spacious while the kitchen is on the smaller side. By DC standards, 1,300 square feet is a good deal of room to move around in for a two-bedroom unit. The home is barely a five minute walk from the Dupont Circle Metro, but it also comes with a parking space, a highly coveted amenity for the area.

An Updated, Spacious Three Bedroom

Marble counter tops, stainless steel appliances and sleek cabinetry make up the spacious kitchen at this new three-bedroom unit. An open living space with room for a large dining table and an additional living room set gives homeowners enough space for entertaining. There are large windows against the back wall and combined with the tall ceilings, light kitchen colors and white walls these brighten the area. The home has two master bedrooms giving the new owners fair amount of space to move around.
