Last week’s Good Deal or Not Revisited (GDoN-R) followed up on a Victorian rowhome in NE on the north side of Lincoln Park. That post demonstrated how specifically block-to-block DC home prices can be, especially in areas referred to as “Capitol Hill”. Today’s featured GDoN-R is located approximately a mile away, on the south side of Lincoln Park, in SE within the legal subdivision boundaries of Capitol Hill.

Like many parts of DC, this area includes homes that range widely in terms of size, condition, age, and style, so pricing can be tricky. In this location, within a few blocks of Eastern Market, it’s not unusual for small scale basement-less houses to sell for a very high U Street Neighborhood and one in Dupont.

248 9th St SE transferred in 2000 for $235,000. Following renovation, two years later it sold for a net of $392,000. The recent sellers purchased the home in 2006 for a net of $607,500. The 2006 décor was quite different.
