$35,000 Above For A 1922 Bungalow In Fairlawn

The attractive price tag for this 100 year-old three-bedroom in DC's Fairlawn neighborhood caught the attention of a number of buyers -- it recently sold for about $35,000 above its original list price. The bungalow features a floorplan where the living room, dining room, and kitchen flow together, but maintain enough separation that it avoids an open concept feel. The bedrooms are all generously-sized and outside, there is a spacious yard, driveway, off-street parking, and a garage.
