good deal or great deal? 25 R Street NW

Bloomingdale resident Suzanne Des Marais is the real estate agent for 25 R Street NW, which is on the market for $539,999. I'm a sucker for carriage houses, and so few properties in the neighborhood include them with the main house, so this sounds like it will be snapped up pretty quickly.

Multiple offers received. Bloomingdale! Actual brownstone with unique layout & two-story carriage house. Historic details include iron exterior steps, fireplace & mantels, heart of pine floors, exposed brick, high ceilings. Chef's kitchen open to dining & family room. Huge bedrooms. Main-level bedroom is currently set up as a den. Large private patio. Only one block to Big Bear & Farmer's Market. Garage parking. Two Metros.

There are a couple of other places on the market in Bloomingdale where wishful thinking seems to have taken precedent over common sense, but after discussing the place with several neighbors, the general opinion seems to be that this was priced with the current market in mind.

Actually, my listing was 33 R St NW. We ended up with multiple offers, so I'd say spot on with the pricing :-) 25 R St NW was listed by another company a week before and is also under contract.
