holycow. If someone rents this in edgewood for this price then I am definitely under pricing my two bedroom, 870 sq foot condo four blocks from CH Metro waaaay to low at 2k/month. That giant “blank” space on the map to the left of the metro tracks is a massive public housing complex, probably 300 plus units.
Those projects are some of the most notorious in the District. They back up to the MBT trail, which is where the perps in the muggings come from, I suspect.
Haha, we call the Metropolitan Branch Trail the “Perp Walk” because of how dangerous it is!
I agree it’s over-priced for Edgewood. I live across from that housing complex and have had no problems. I’ve heard about a lot more assaults in the CH area than in Edgewood. This neighborhood is great. I love Chocolate City and the MBT!
-1 Edgewood blows – used to live there. Now live in CH & love it. Not even in the same league to compare. Sorry, that’s the truth.
I still like my neighborhood. I used to live in CH and prefer Edgewood. Sorry, that’s the truth.
conveniently located below ground.
I love the kitchen layout.
That is one narrow kitchen.
Oh HELLL no
Is this a scam? Maybe a way to pull government money through section 8?
I can’t imagine someone paying that much for that little in that neighborhood.
The most recent (as far as I can find) payment standard information for DC Housing Authority is here: http://www.dchousing.org/docs/PaymentStandards.pdf
The max they’ll pay for a 2 bedroom is $1643
I have to go to that neighborhood pretty regularly and don’t mind it during the day. But I wouldn’t like to live there or walk around at night, and I wish I had never looked at the Homicide Watch DC map of the area. It is convenient to the G8 bus though.
For $1500 it’s a maybe. For $1975 no way.
I hadn’t even thought of the section 8 angle but that would make a lot of sense. If they take vouchers then this would could get rented at this price.
re: pictures: would have liked a picture of bath or bed instead of 4 pictures of the couch
Walking distance to Chocolate City Brewery!
I go to that area for my job often and definitely agree with brookland rez.
WOW, that is a narrow kitchen!
Is there even enough room for the dishwasher or the oven to open all the way??
Th LR also looks narrow. the whole effect is claustrophobic. Nice lobby, tho.
Bwhahahahahahahahahaha….
No…freaking…way
I love posts like this where I can track down more info online! It appears to be unit B4, which according to Redfin sold in 2007 for 316K. Given that a 1BR in the building sold last year for $137K, I doubt the 2BR is still worth $316K, but I imagine the owner is trying to cover their mortgage and other expenses.
Seriously? Two months ago, there was a stabbing, a shooting, and another stabbing on three consecutive nights near that stretch of 4th St NE.
Pretty ballsy on their part considering entire rowhouses go for under $2,000 in Eckington – just down the street.
Dude – 2k for a BASEMENT apartment in da hood with no Metro? (At least no metro in a SAFE walking distance). Is the rental market really that bad in DC?
