Property Overview
This is a 3 bed / 2 bath garden condo in the Anacostia area of Southeast DC. The unit has an open living/dining setup, wood floors, central A/C, in-unit laundry, assigned parking, and a practical layout for either resale or rental demand.
The 3-bedroom count is the main draw. Larger bedroom-count condo units in this price band are limited, and the 2-bath layout gives this one stronger rental utility than a standard 2/1 condo.
