House For Sale of the Day – Fixer Upper Edition
IMG_6688, originally uploaded by Prince of Petworth.
This house/mansion is truly amazing. You can easily imagine what it looked like in its former glory. And I’m sure with a million bucks or so it could be restored to its previous glory. It is located on the corner of 18th and Monroe, NW. So for my real estate sleuths – what is the asking price of this mansion. Check out a close up of a sweet window after the jump.

Unfortunately, many of the older residents would prefer empty storefronts over anything...

nice chain link fence, in all it’s current glory.
And to whomever said there are no tile roofs in DC — another example. Also? Has this person never been on New Hampshire Ave north of Grant Circle? There are lots of tile roofs in DC.
I thought it was a Karl Farvman
I used to walk my dogs past that house every day when I lived in Mt Pleasant. Always reminded me of Grey Gardens and I was always hoping it would magically go on the market for a fraction of what they ARE asking for it so I could buy it myself.
This house has been on and off the market for about 3 years. With different realtors. Every so often I’ll see some people living there (squating??) and even less frequently, someone will come by and do some repairs. I can’t wait til someone buys and restores it. It will do a lot for a block that is notorious for drug dealing. (The house across the street, in particular.)
I hear the house is even more glorious on the inside
and the garage….
that could be a sweet studio/inlaw sweet!
I adore this house. If only I had a few mil to play with….
