Those pipes running through the kitchen, bathroom and bedroom would be a deal-breaker for me!

Meh.

It’s a one bedroom in a neighorhood filled with families. If I were single, I’d be looking to live where other single people are.

Also, it’s a ground floor unit and no parking. Perhaps the only street in Cleveland Park where it is hard to park is Porter.

you could always rent it to a howard law student. their school is a few blocks north on conn (one stop on the red line). ditto for a udc student, although they probably have less money than a hu law student.

this should have been called “the exposed water pipe edition”

over 200k? this is a joke right?

at under $1300 including taxes, utilities, condo fees, etc. (with a $20k down payment), I think it’s a good deal, especially for someone with enough income to benefit from the tax credits that come with owning. You’d pay more to rent it, and it would be easy to rent out when the time came that you didn’t want to live there anymore.

I say good deal to a single person (or couple not planning to get a dog or have kids) with $20k in the bank who wants a “nice” neighborhood and is ok with living in the basement for a few years to save money.
