If you are looking for a home in the $200K range, good luck. Pretty much everything that is clean inside with a few updates here and there is under contract within a few days. Of course, there are some holdouts.

Take this interesting two-bedroom, one-bath cottage in Cochran Heights at 5029 Pershing. This is the little neighborhood sandwiched between Henderson Avenue and the M Streets area, just east of Highway 75. It’s chock full of little cottages and condo developments, and is rapidly becoming a walkable neighborhood. It’s close to Knox Street, which is becoming more and more dense thanks to developers buying up blocks and putting in urban-oriented mixed-use developments.

But this home is another animal entirely. You need only glance at the living room to see what I mean. The gilded trim and furniture inside this 996-square-foot home is more befitting Champ d’Or than a small urban cottage, but you know what? I don’t care. I LOVE IT. It is so fun, and with the chandeliers and decorative fireplace, this home shows that taste and style can transcend size. That’s actually a great description of the previous owner, too, a graphic designer who was creative and energetic. It’s just a tragedy that his life was cut short by a fierce battle with lung cancer.

His appreciation for the finer things lives on in this fun little house. The home is a feast for the eyes, with opulent wallpaper in the dining area, quirky cabinets with a tiny sink in the kitchen, a master bedroom bedecked in gold painted moulding, a marble-lined bath, and an office that can inspire creativity in anyone with intricately inlaid and stained wood paneling reminiscent of a setting inside Downton Abbey. Truly, this home is full of light and texture.

And outside you’ll find a perfect above-ground pool, fantastic for inviting friends over and enjoying a dip when the weather becomes unbearable. The deck is lovely, too, and thanks to the urban environment, you’ll love the background noise as a backdrop for a fantastic party. And considering the excellent condition of the property, including all of the upgrades, and of course, the beautiful person behind it, I can see why this splendid little 1940s cottage is being marketed for $269,000. What’s your favorite thing about it?
