829 3rd St SW #309

Welcome to 829 3rd St SW #309, a stunning Clothiel Woodard Smith-designed corner row house located in the heart of Washington, DC. This exquisite Capitol Park 2 end unit offers a bright, modern, and open floor plan with 1,812 square feet of living space. However, before we even discuss how fantastic this space is, let's discuss what an incredible value this home is (especially relative to all the other offerings in the Southwest Waterfront / Ballpark areas). Smart buyers look at the total cost of ownership. Your monthly payment towards Principal, Interest, Taxes, Insurance (PITI) and your monthly condo or Co-Op fee is what your total cost of ownership is and the low condo fee of $489 on this unit makes this opportunity a no-brainer. If you’re looking for a home in SW with over 1800 square feet of living space, 3 bedrooms, and 2 full baths. You simply cannot find a better deal in terms of total cost of ownership. Our closest competitor has a condo fee that is nearly $200 a month more AND the square footage is 25% LESS! Many of the condo fees in SW are two, three, and even FOUR times higher than this one AND this fee is NOT tax deductible (like mortgage interest). In fact, for every $200 you put toward your mortgage payment - instead of paying it out in higher condo fees - *you'll take TWO YEARS off of your 30-year mortgage*. TWO YEARS, that's pretty phenomenal and, more than likely you're comparing our condo to places with condo fees that are twice as high or even higher which means FOUR YEARS. Take a 30 year mortgage and only pay it for 26 years with money you would have otherwise spent on higher condo fees. That's just smart buying! Buy 829 3rd St. SW DC today and you’ll thank me later!
