What Does $600K Buy You in DC?: Figure 1

If you are willing to shell out $600K, you can live in one of the only (perhaps the only) gated communities near U Street. This two-bedroom, 2.5-bath home is located right across 16th Street from Meridian Hill Park, and has been renovated with hardwood floors throughout, a wood-burning fireplace in the living room and two large bedrooms upstairs.

What this property really offers, and what you are paying for, is security and convenience. There is a 24-hour guard at the gated entrance to the community, and every unit comes with a parking space. The community is about a five-minute walk from the new Harris Teeter in Adams Morgan and a ten-minute walk from the U Street Metro station on the Green Line.
