but the vets who died gave you the right to voice your opinion. God Bless them

^yes. The only danger at this location is being run over by a motorist from Maryland.

Faison's writeups make me crazy. And not in a good "I'm crazy for buying this house!" way.
The Dancing Crab's commercials have to be the worst I've ever seen. The owners saying,...
a little small but love it
i wish i could live in that location.
great block, scary building
What is scary about the building? I genuinely want to know, because when I saw the photos + location + price, I immediately thought, “what’s the catch?”
Something wrong with the building?
I’ve lived in the neighborhood for years – that place was occupied by major drug dealers in the 90′s and I’ve seen paramedics pull 2 bodies from the building… but it’s a really nice block
And in the 1930′s there were bootleggers – and in the 40′s – hootchie coochie girls. A crazy cat lady lived there around 1951, and I saw this guy who lived there in 1963 reading “Howl” on the front steps. . . .

Awesome location, but wall unit air & heat suck
Where do these staging companies find all that teeny tiny furniture? It looks like they sacrificed a big chunk of living area for “all that storage”. they turned 600sf into 550 plus a closet.
Always wondered what this place looked like inside. I’m glad they painted the exterior. It was always so ugly when compared to the rest of the block.
Great location, but I have a hard time believing that is really 600 sq ft. It looks much smaller, despite the clever tiny furniture they used to stage it. Perhaps the listing is including the square footage of the back patio? Zillow’s public facts on that place says it is 315, which sounds closer to the truth.
Yeah I agree, this def looks a lot smaller than my 600 sq ft apartment. Still cute though.
I like it but I’d be concerned about the shared deck from a noise and privacy perspective. A little over-priced I think for the size, but you make it back in location.
1 bedroom in that location is a pretty good deal. Even if you are showering in your kitchen.
I’m not a big fan of Logan Circle. It’s got some nice businesses for sure, and I go there once in a while, but I wouldn’t want to live there. Too far from the metro and zero diversity at this point. I’m all for economic development and am skeptical about complaints of gentrification just because businesses are opening up and homes are being improved. But when a neighborhood goes way past the tipping point like this and has no balance at all, meh, no thanks.
Seems like you could pretty easily rent this unit out for way more than the cost of the mortgage… wonder if there’s big restrictions on renting out?
Super cute apartment. I think it’s a good deal.
Great investment. Mortgage would probably be less than renting elsewhere, plus you’re building equity. I have a similarly open closet (I call it a “walk-through”) and it works really well.
I went to see it today, and I’d say 300sqft is a generous estimate of the size. Now, it’s VERY well laid out for 300sqft, but there is no laundry and it’s tiny – so I’d say it’s about $40k overpriced. Just not worth it – it’s barely big enough to put an SUV in if it was a garage – so don’t plan to bring any of your stuff!
Saw it at the Open House. It is teeny TINY, but really adorable. The layout is practical if you are fairly minimalist. A nice alternative to a studio. The location is killer though. Nice street close to everything. I wish I had my act together to pull the trigger on this one.
Fair price. Nice place, great location. Prob good for a single person who plans on eating out every night. Kitchen looks unusable (other than microwaving pizza or frying eggs). Wall units suck.
I was wondering about that kitchen. I wonder if you could install more counter space or is there just no place to put them? It would be a shame to live 1 block from Whole Foods and not be able to cook.
