ooking for a distraction during inauguration weekend? This week's open house roundup features four unique properties in the DC area.
A Petworth penthouse condo offers floor-to-ceiling windows, an upgraded kitchen, and two private parking spots with EV charging capabilities. The 1917 rowhouse unit underwent a major renovation in 2018 and boasts two private terraces.
In Arlington, a Craftsman-style home from the 1920s features original pine floors, soapstone counters, and a wine cellar. The property includes a covered front porch, flagstone patio, fenced backyard, and a guest cottage that can be used as a rental or in-law suite.
