How about Georgetown in DC, Tasteful Friends?

Hospital neutral colors inside, but think of it as a blank canvas for you to express your personality. The house even has an elevator for those visiting Eldergays.

The exterior, including the roof deck, is cool. The interior is deadly.

It feels really sterile to me but I think warming it up is just a decorating job. Not sure about the elevator opening into the closet.

I used to work with that agent, Nancy Taylor Bubbes - she's a nasty piece of work.

I love it! Yes, it does need a little color...colorful carpets, pillows, curtains and a few bright paintings would help a lot.

Is it staged that way or is that how they live?

No thanks. A possessed, head spinning, projectile vomiting little girl used to live there.

It's not anything special. And worse it's located in Georgetown DC , home to some of the cuntiest and most power hungry creeps you'll ever meet.

R7... solvable. It doesn't have to ruin Christmas or anything.

Not a single stick of the original interior remaining, cold and generic interior, looks like every house on “Million Dollar Listing”.

Needs color and warmth badly.

It's so..white!

I don't like what they have done with the side yards on either side.

Getting in or out of DC in a car is a frustrating, fucked up experience. Then again, if you can afford this, you can send the servants out to Costco on your behalf.

I feel like if you are going to do hausmann style floors, do it everywhere. Didthey run out of money? Did the herringbone specialist unexpectedly die?

The epitome of meh.....

The interior seems both characterless and instantly outdated. The better addresses are on the other side of Wisconsin Ave.

Very sterile. 5 million? No thanks.

I suddenly have an overwhelming desire to go out a buy some red throw pillows. Sheesh!

I love it. Understated elegance, which means those with garish taste will hate it and try to trash it up with color junk.

by Anonymousreply 20August 1, 2020 3:13 AM

Interior Seems rather commercial like and office building that was converted.

Did anyone famous ever live there? Georgetown tends to attract a lot of prominent people.

by Anonymousreply 22August 1, 2020 4:43 AM

Imagine living with those interior colors during the winter. It’s like walking through the Zhivago house.

Gray is dated

I think I dated a kid who lived here 25 years ago.

OP wasnt wrong about it being blank - and yes, it is like a hospital, or a hotel. A very sterile one.

Lots of floral patterned carpets, wallpaper and rugs, lots of heavy ornate gilt furniture, and heavily patterned velvet curtains with tassels will help. More is more, and it needs lots more. A generous budget, strategically map out every antique store in a 100 mile radius, and rent a truck for a month and I could could make it right for me

My husband and I are considering it...

I lived in Georgetown in a group house in the East Village - Rose Street - it was so much fun being young there plus you could walk across the P St bridge to Badlands (which we called the butt-hutt.

It's a corner lot. Dead deal for me. NEXT!

It's gorgeous

by Anonymousreply 31August 24, 2020 7:45 PM

Such a small garden and positioned between two roads...

Interior wise I don’t doubt someone can turn it into a warm house.

by Anonymousreply 32August 24, 2020 7:49 PM

I like it. Nice, simple floor plans. Metro (subway) doesn't go to Georgetown, so you would need a car (or find some other transportation).
