Not only do we have Before pics, this house was a GDoN post here on PoPville in 2010.
In the 2010 GDoN post, it was listed for $879,000. Back then, it finally sold for $765,000. after 26 days on the market. Here are some comments from that post, seven years ago:
“In the desirable neighborhoods prices keep going up because demand’s not slowing down anytime soon. As long as people keep flocking to DC for jobs, or fleeing from the nearby suburbs as commute times keep getting longer, prices will not decrease.”
“Too far from the new Walmarts.”
“Thats a good deal”
The listing agent for this transaction was Jacob Wysor with Real Living At Home. Stephen Carpenter-Israel with Buyers Edge Co., Inc. represented the Purchaser.

Finding a gift for moms can be difficult. Google “Mother’s Day gifts,” and you’ll scroll through endless lists of beauty products, candles and fuzzy robes. Sure, those are sweet, but sometimes it’s fun to surprise loved ones with something a little more, well, practical!
Here’s one idea: Give her a gift certificate for a home cleaning from Well-Paid Maids. It’s the perfect “thank you,” “I love you” or “you’ve got this” for any mom. She can schedule the home cleaning at her convenience and breathe easy knowing she has one less thing to do.
Our cleaners will take care of everything, including vacuuming and mopping as well as cleaning and dusting countertops, tables, mirrors, appliances and more. Sinks, toilets, showers and appliance exteriors also get a good scrub.
