CHRISTINE: Yes.

JOHN: Lead the way.

CHRISTINE: Whoa.

(laughs).

Look at this place.

JOHN: What a great condo.

This is something.

CHRISTINE: It's floor-to-ceiling windows and they're taking advantage of every bit of it.

JOHN: You have that beautiful view of the river and the beautiful curves of the building, that's part of what you love about the Watergate.

Okay, so we have living room, dining room, entertainment zone.

Can you imagine parties here?

CHRISTINE: Oh, my gosh, we would be so popular.

JOHN: We would be popular.

CHRISTINE: Yeah.

Finally.

Finally.

JOHN: Okay, well I see lots of good stuff over here in the kitchen... CHRISTINE: I do too.

JOHN: Which looks ooh lala, but little wing down here... CHRISTINE: Okay.

JOHN: Let's check it out.

Lots of storage there.

CHRISTINE: That's nice.

JOHN: Into our, our first bathroom.

CHRISTINE: This blue vanity, it's really pretty with the brushed gold.

JOHN: I'm a big fan of that.

And oh my gosh, the shower in this room.

CHRISTINE: Oh, look at that.

JOHN: Is stunning.

CHRISTINE: I don't think I've ever seen tile like that.

JOHN: I think that's prize-winning there.

CHRISTINE: I would say.

JOHN: Okay.

I love this first bathroom... And our first bedroom.

CHRISTINE: The view continues.

JOHN: I can really see the Kennedy Center now and the pool down there.

CHRISTINE: I know the pool looks so inviting right now.

JOHN: We'll call this the poolroom.

CHRISTINE: I love it.

And then ample room for king-size bed and dresser.

JOHN: Mm-hmm.

I like how they drop down these recess lights on the sides too.

And highlight your underneath... CHRISTINE: Oh.

JOHN: All those beautiful lights.

CHRISTINE: And there's more to see.

JOHN: The kitchen.

CHRISTINE: Ooh.

JOHN: Oh my gosh.

CHRISTINE: Hey.

JOHN: How did we miss this?

The wet bar of all wet bars.

CHRISTINE: I know.

JOHN: You've got a sink, you've got a wine fridge.

This completes that living room, dining room entertainer's dream.

Okay, well when you're done with cocktails, it's time for dinner.

CHRISTINE: Oh, you just move right on over to this lovely kitchen.

JOHN: Humongous island in the kitchen.

CHRISTINE: Okay.

When you're standing right here, you just realize how wide this is.

JOHN: All this beautiful, beautiful quartz with the grey veining... CHRISTINE: Mm-hmm.

JOHN: Which I love.

CHRISTINE: And the basic white cabinets with the gold handles really gives it an elegant look.

But I also like the way the appliances are hidden too.

JOHN: Yeah.

That fridge over there is gorgeous.

CHRISTINE: Oh.

JOHN: And this all feeds into this entertainment zone, right?

CHRISTINE: Mm-hmm.

Right.

JOHN: Okay.

We have a wing back here, but a room over here.

CHRISTINE: Let's go this way.

JOHN: Let's do this first.

CHRISTINE: Okay.

Now, let's see what we have.

All right.

Bedroom number two.

JOHN: Ah, cool space.

CHRISTINE: I know.

I think it might be just a tad smaller than the last one... JOHN: Mm-hmm.

CHRISTINE: But you know, again... JOHN: The views.

CHRISTINE: Does it really matter what size the bedroom is when you have this view?

JOHN: It doesn't.

CHRISTINE: And I'm gonna check out back here.

JOHN: Okay.

CHRISTINE: Oh, and John, it's a full bath, and this vanity is a really pretty sage.

And the highlight is the honeycomb tile floor.

Really nice.

JOHN: Another nice bedroom.

CHRISTINE: Exactly.

JOHN: Come on, let's journey through the kitchen.

Boy, this kitchen is so good.

CHRISTINE: Uh, you really see it now.

JOHN: It's like a dance floor.

CHRISTINE: Ooh.

Let's see some of your moves.

Maybe later.

JOHN: Later.

Okay.

A little den.

Nice room for maybe a yoga room.

Cute.

CHRISTINE: Okay.

So we have a room just for the washer and dryer with cabinet space.

Ooh.

And a pretty backsplash.

JOHN: I love that blue color.

CHRISTINE: Mm-hmm.

That's 'cause it's soothing when you do wash. JOHN: All right.

CHRISTINE: Ooh, half bath.

JOHN: Oh my gosh.

That is the most beautiful floor...

I've ever seen.

It looks like polished stone.

CHRISTINE: It looks like glass or ice.

It's almost like you're afraid to step on it.

And they use a floating vanity.

JOHN: Mm-hmm.

CHRISTINE: for this floor, you wanna show it off as much as you can.

JOHN: You sure do.

Very modern and chic.

CHRISTINE: I know.

I'm still afraid to step on.

JOHN: Oh don't.

CHRISTINE: Okay.

JOHN: Okay, here we go.

CHRISTINE: Okay.

So... JOHN: Into... Looks like... CHRISTINE: Okay.

Is this an interesting space?

JOHN: Okay.

So I think we're in the primary.

CHRISTINE: Okay.

Around the... Oh, walk-in closet right around the corner?

JOHN: Okay.

Just what you need at... CHRISTINE: Yeah.

JOHN: The Watergate.

Nice built-ins, nice drawers.

CHRISTINE: It's a great use of space.

JOHN: Yeah and a very nice dressing room.

CHRISTINE: Mm-hmm.

JOHN: And then... CHRISTINE: Into the bedroom.

JOHN: Aha.

Okay.

Primary bedroom.

It has lovely views.

CHRISTINE: So how do you get out of bed in the morning when you can just look at that view all day?

JOHN: Well, you just say, "Hey, it's John.

I can't come in again today."

CHRISTINE: Oh, brilliant.

Brilliant.

JOHN: Stay in bed and enjoy the view.

And again, I like how the lights accent the art.

CHRISTINE: And nice-sized bed... JOHN: Yeah.

CHRISTINE: End tables, room for a dresser.

JOHN: Yep.

You can see yourself in this room.

CHRISTINE: Mm-hmm.

Yeah, I could.

JOHN: Every good primary suite has to have a primary bath.

CHRISTINE: Ooh.

You just see that cohesive design... JOHN: Mm-hmm.

CHRISTINE: Throughout the entire space.

JOHN: Like the white marble here, but in this room, they put black marble behind the vanity and that looks really great.

CHRISTINE: Well, it carries through into the shower.

JOHN: Sure does.

With your gold hardware.

CHRISTINE: Pretty.

Mm-hmm.

JOHN: Nice primary suite.

Okay.

CHRISTINE: We've seen the entire condo.

What a treat.

JOHN: That was so much fun.

Great to see the Watergate.

CHRISTINE: Exactly, but now you have to figure out a listing price.

JOHN: Your guess first.

CHRISTINE: Ooh, let's go find Gigi.

JOHN: All right.

CHRISTINE: Hey Gigi.

GIGI: So how did you like this home?

JOHN: That view with this entertaining space, you know, great living room, dining room, that giant wet bar... CHRISTINE: Mm-hmm.

JOHN: And this kitchen made for great parties.

GIGI: Your guests will never forget you.

JOHN: It's perfect.

CHRISTINE: And you know, I have to say, what really stood out are all the bathrooms.

You had a beautiful blue vanity, one with beautiful marble tile in the shower, and just the design throughout.

You have all these great elements that just flow from room to room.

GIGI: It's beautiful.

Even in the laundry room.

JOHN: Yeah.

Even in the laundry room.

CHRISTINE: I do have a couple of questions.

So what are the monthly fees?

GIGI: The fees are 4417 per month.

Because it's a co-op, it includes your property taxes, all the utilities... CHRISTINE: Oh.

JOHN: Oh.

Yes.

GIGI: Two parking spaces, maintenance of the heat and air condition, and basic cable.

JOHN: That's a lot.

CHRISTINE: Okay.

GIGI: Everything's included.

JOHN: Yeah.

CHRISTINE: All right.

Wow.

JOHN: And that property taxes are in there.

That's the big key here.

CHRISTINE: Mm-hmm.

GIGI: That's the big thing.

CHRISTINE: Okay.

JOHN: Yes.

GIGI: It is a three-bedroom, three and a half bath.

It's 2243 square feet.

It was built in 1971, recently renovated just last year.

CHRISTINE: So, this property is probably one of our most difficult, because it's so unique in so many ways.

JOHN: Oh for sure.

CHRISTINE: Okay.

I'm gonna come in at a listing price of 2.4.

GIGI: 2.4?

Okay.

JOHN: Mm-hmm.

That's a good guess.

Could go up.

I could go down.

I'm gonna go for 2.3, Gigi.

GIGI: Okay.

So Christine, you're at 2.4... CHRISTINE: Mm-hmm.

GIGI: And John, you're at 2.3.

JOHN: Mm-hmm.

GIGI: The actual list price of the property is... 2.495.

JOHN: Ah, man.

GIGI: Christine's the winner.

CHRISTINE: This... Like I said, this was a really hard one, 'cause you're factoring in, it's the Watergate.

JOHN: Yeah.

CHRISTINE: Okay.

JOHN: But I'm pretty happy that we both came... CHRISTINE: I, it's...

I am just... JOHN: Semi-close, because this is a toughie.

CHRISTINE: Kind of so surprised that we actually came that close.

Thank you, Gigi, for a great day.

That’s for sure.

GIGI: It's been really fun.
