While much of DC is playing out on the Eastern Shore, there might not be a better time than the dog days of summer to fulfill your dreams of owning a stunning DC loft. These are the kind of places that make you say WOW the minute you walk in the door.

The DC loft movement started in the Adams Morgan neighborhood and over the years various developers have continually one-upped prior projects in their quest for the quintessential loft development. Many obsolete industrial-era Adams Morgan buildings have been re-born as luxury loft developments.

DC's most stunning loft currently on the market is a penthouse unit located at The Lofts of Adams Morgan. This 2-story loft features a 2 BR / 3…

Bogdan Builders transformed the corner of Vermont and R Street NW with the development of Logan Station on a previously vacant lot.  This four-story, 63 unit development appears from the street-level as a series of Victorian-era row houses.  First floor units at Logan Station live like a townhouse with individual street entrances.  Upper-level units on the second floor feature a traditional condo design and third-floor penthouse have offer a 2-level duplex layout.

There is nothing ordinary about Logan Station which is evidenced the moment you enter a residence through the over-sized seven foot entry door.  Units feature 10 foot ceilings, hardwood flooring, stainless appliances, cherry cabinets and granite counters.  Penthouse units include Sub-Zero…

DCs Most Manly Condo

Fellow blogger Lydia DePillis of the City Paper posted this morning about a Wall Street Journal article on man caves.  Lydia's visceral reaction to the article caused me to pause and ponder how I might tell her that yes.....I have a man cave.  It has all the trappings of a manly room including pool and foosball tables, huge plasma, a picture of me at the 2000 Final Four and even a neon Budweiser sign. 

While I vaguely remember seeing a man cave a while back in a Georgetown row house, man caves are few and far between in the District.  For the most part with valuations often exceeding $500 / SF  for urban DC digs, man caves take a back seat in our space-constrained inner-city environment. 

In the absence of man caves, what other options are…

DC Penthouse Condo View

Every teenage boy dreams of owning a penthouse condo.......not for the view out the window......but rather for an up-close view of Bob Guccione's clothing-challenged "models."  Unfortunately, by the time most guys can finally afford a DC penthouse condo, the view out the window becomes more of a priority!

Here in the District, the view from many of our penthouse condos is second to none.  Sweeping views of monuments, museums and even the Capitol can take your breath away on a daily basis.  A virtual stroll through the DC property assessment database certainly confirms that penthouse condos are home to many of the District's movers and shakers.
