Real Estate Fresh Finds: June 30

Real Estate Fresh Finds is a weekly selection of newly-listed properties in the District, brought to you by Real Living At Home.

Featured Property of the Week: 327 Oglethorpe Street NW

“A stylish Tudor with a MASSIVE flat green yard! Not all homes or yards are created equal. This home has a DOUBLE LOT — check what has sold or is under contract nearby and the best-case scenario is they have half the yard of 327 Oglethorpe. This brick and stone home is the perfect blend of modern and updated while preserving its historic features — not the same open concept home stripped of its character that you’ve seen over and over. Here, there is definition and privacy, but the archways were widened to modernize each room. The floor plan is ideal with great flow from when you enter through the vestibule, step into the spacious entryway and walk into the large living room with a wood-burning fireplace. From the living room, you have a straight view through the dining room (that has space to comfortably entertain 12) onward to a bright and newly renovated kitchen. The top floor continues with newly refinished oak floors. The floor plan is your ideal 3 bedroom and 2 bathroom footprint with an en-suite bathroom to the primary bedroom. All bedrooms are large — unlike many other homes, which have a small third bedroom. The lower level will wow you, 7.5-foot ceiling height and six windows bringing in great light! A true bonus floor with a large second living room and another wood-burning fireplace.”

  • The Most Expensive Home of the Week is a luxurious 6 BD/6.5 BA Georgetown row home with 6K+ square feet spread across four levels and features an ultra-modern kitchen, massive rear patio with water feature, large owner’s suite with spa-like bath, and a lower level “staff quarters” with its own kitchen and laundry — all for $8.5M.

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!

Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.

Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense. Heavy furniture is difficult to move around, but it’s important to really get in there so dust doesn’t affect your sleep.
