Why: It was love at first sight with those dark, hardwood floors. And the metal railings give a modern, non-cabin feel to this 1924 town house. The place was fully renovated in 2016, bringing a swanky Calacatta countertop and stainless steel appliances in the kitchen, modern fixtures in the three-and-a-half bathrooms—including a sink that looks like a birdbath, but in a good and fancy way—plus a finished basement and large rear deck for classy cookouts. Plus, there’s a garage with an automatic opener. Score.
