Add this one to the “Houses Improperly Described As Colonial” file.

  Also wouldn’t say “minutes to downtown Silver Spring” when the place is located on Columbia Heights/Petworth border. Poor advertising.

    They didn’t say how many minutes.

Seems extremely dated to be asking for $3,050 per month. In my opinion, way overpriced.

  Well it has a garage, so that’s worth $200/month*, and it has an in-unit Washer/Dryer, so that’s worth another $50/month, so $2800/month for the actual house. It’s not terrible but you’re right, it definitely looks like it could use some work for that price.

    For $1015ish per tenant, it seems like about what I’d expect for a group house. Maybe somewhat overpriced, but not by much.

This place is a block from the Petworth metro. Why would they promote it as being “within minutes” of downtown Silver Spring? (If by “minutes” they mean a 20 minute drive, then it’s correct but not really a feature of the home.)

Love the “proofing” cabinet in the kitchen.

Those floors don’t appear to be so “gleaming” as described
