The Paper Mill Georgetown Waterfront Condos

The PAPER MILL GEORGETOWN WATERFRONT CONDOS

 

A View from the Top! Condo Living in Georgetown

Summer has truly hit the Washington, DC Real Estate Market. I am swamped and behind on my blogging. I apologize for the delay, I missed you and I hope you missed me! Originally I started out this post,  "Last week I wrote about how special Georgetown waterfront is due to the natural beauty." But that was almost two weeks ago and just like that another weekend has come and gone.  Hot Fun in the Summer Time! Who sang that song? That's right, it was released the summer of '69 by Sly and the Family Stone. A fabulous tune that sets your mind at ease and makes you want to ride through Rock Creek Park with your windows rolled down. But enough of that, let's get back to business.

The natural beauty of Georgetown is by far the best value of this small enclave in Washington DC. However we can't leave out the amenities of living on the waterfront. The Washington Harbor abounds in creativity and excitement, especially coming alive in the summer. Enjoy a breezy stroll on the promenade while taking in the kayakers. Sometimes the need for social therapy runs deep. Come down on a lazy afternoon bask in the sun, sip wonderful cocktails and feast on casual dining. For years Georgetown has been a famed stop for fine dining, satisfying the choicest of palates. First on the menu is Fiolamare DC for amazing Italian cuisine. Perhaps you crave delectable seafood? Then making reservations at Tony and Joes is a must, relish some of the best quality seafood Washington, DC has to offer.

All this talk about food is making me hungry but I know your appetite is salivating for the latest in statistics in Georgetown Waterfront Condos. The Paper Mill has long  been a fixture in the Georgetown marketplace. Originally built in 1900 these all brick condo townhomes are simply exquisite. The elegance grace and beauty of a relic, with a renovated twist of the 21st century. Beautiful private courtyards leading out to the C/O Canal, waterfront and shops. This condo development offers a private pool and 24 hour security, along with secured garaged parking exclusive to The Paper Mill. It can't get much better than that! But it just did, extremely low condo maintenance fees and FHA approved. I will stop now because in this market it sounds too good to be true. Want to drill deeper? Then take a look at this weeks Georgetown Condo statistics in comparison with The Paper Mill. The reports are in and The Paper Mill is leading the pack for condos that have 900 square feet and less.


 

Leading the charge month over month the Paper Mill has increased in Sold Value. Over the course of 5 months, three 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom condos have sold in the community. There is currently only 1 Condo available in The Paper Mill. Do you want to see the property or learn more about it? Email me for additional information.

Cityscape Dawsons Market and Georgetown FloorCoverings

DC RE Gal selling real estate in DC MD VA

People often say 'the life of a Realtor is so exciting.' Well, it depends on how you define excitement, but I will agree on one thing...there is never a dull moment! As many of you know I sell homes in Maryland, DC and Virginia.  So in the course of 4 to 6 hours I can literally traverse the whole beltway loop. On an amazing day filled with thrills, TWICE!! Today wasn't quite that adventurous, however, my travels did take me to the outskirts of Rockville and I happened upon Rockville Time Square. What a lovely little outdoor mall, more like a plaza but its wonderful. The best part was stopping into Dawson's Market. Scrumptious, no scrumpdillyicious!!! I Googled this word before I used it and it has found its way into the dictionary, but then again what hasn't these days? More on Dawson's Market later.




Georgetown FloorCoverings

We love all things luxury right? Especially when it comes to residential real estate and everything that goes inside a property. I thought it was appropriate to begin to feature some fabulous home furnishing retailers in Georgetown that bespeak luxury. Today I am happy to spotlight Georgetown FloorCoverings on our blog. A staple in Georgetown home improvement life since 1954. Their hallmark is exclusive designer floorings, carpet and area rugs. Looking for that special design that grabs attention and increases your homes resale value exponentially? Then your next stop needs to be Georgetown FloorCoverings to add distinction to your home. Also notable is that they are 100% woman owned. Now that's a feather in the cap!  







So what am I serving up on the blog today in the way of real estate treats? Well in my travels I did a short video to talk about it. Take a look   

Now lets face it there isn't going to be a ton of properties for under 900k on the waterfront. We all know that water spells $$$ in any real estate market and especially in Georgetown. However, the gorgeous Washington Harbour Condominiums has one active property that is simply spectacular. Well over 2100 square feet and boasting 2bedrooms and 2bathrooms this beautiful home is priced under 800k and has views of the water. Excited about the possibilities that await you in this waterfront community? This is just a small tidbit of what you can attain in the purchase. Look for the complete blog post on Washington Harbour Condominiums later this week.

How long should you wait to take advantage of deals this fantastic? The Georgetown market is on pulse and abuzz in the Washington DC Metro area. The spring/summer month totals reveal that the average days on market is roughly 39 and dropping.


This translates as follows:  Deals like this great won't be around for too long before finding a ready, willing and able buyer. Need specifics on this or any other condo community in Georgetown? Inbox me with your questions/comments/concerns and I will be happy to help.

Now, what's so phenomenal about Dawson's Market? The prices!!! I love Whole Foods and girls gotta eat, but there is no comparison in the price to Dawson's Market. Today I went to Dawson's Market for quick bite from their hot bar. A whole piece of jerk tilapia, brussel sprouts and roasted potatoes totaled a whopping $6.85!! Need I say more? Check them out if you are ever in the downtown Rockville area.

ICE CREAM ICE CREAM!! Water Gazing and Georgetown Harbour

Kennedy Center Washington, DC

DC RE GAL enjoying some ice cream

Oh Yes!!! Well if you can't tell yet, I LOVE LOVE LOVE the summer! Hot weather is the best, feel the energy smell the floral fragrance and most of all enjoy the warm sun and cool breeze. Today we are at Washington Harbor and its fantastic weather. People are sitting on the lawn enjoying lunch, taking long strolls in the park and moving hurriedly along to their next business engagement.

No matter what your doing you can't help but SMILE, sometimes for no reason at all. What makes a sunny day the best??? The best part of the day is the ice cream from Hershey's Old Fashion ice cream parlor in Georgetown. It was perfect because there was absolutely NO line! Perhaps that was because I had a cone at officially 11:45am. Don't you love it!! Yours truly, health conscious nut, went out on a limb and splurged for old fashion creamy calories!

Parents as if the Ice Cream is not enough to get you down here with your children, the splash park will do the trick. These little monsters are having a giggling good time. Who needs a pool when you stand 2 feet tall and weigh all of 30 pounds? Stripping down to your "bloomers" becomes not only acceptable but down right adorable. Their laughter is indeed contagious.

 

What's up on the blog today? Take a peek at my short video spill and then read on....

Georgetown has a myriad of condos and one blog definitely won't cover everything but we are going to do our best to take a snapshot of the market. 

Georgetown Washington, DC Condo Statistics

Where are my condo owners in Georgetown?

This is an exciting report for sellers. The one bedroom condo market took a slight dip from October through December but that only makes sense, can anyone say "government shutdown." However when we continue to examine the chart we see a strong steady market from February 2014 until present. All this despite a winter that wouldn't quite which is an afterthought at this point. Do you have a gorgeous 2 or 3 bedroom condo in Georgetown? The median sold price continues to make incremental increases month over month. The three bedroom condos reflect the growing interest in urban dwelling while not losing out on comfortable living space. If you've been sitting on the fence waiting for the perfect storm it just hit. Interest rates are historically low and Wells Fargo offers an amazing jumbo loan program 89.99% Jumbo financing with no MI.

Well that's it for today folks. I sure hope you are enjoying this beautiful weather as much as I am. If so please share and tell me what makes your summer special. Even better post your Favorite Georgetown Ice Cream Shop and be sure to tell us why it's so fantastic!!!
