Looking to purchase a home near the Metro? Properties close to certain stations are considerably cheaper than others, according to real estate search site Estately, which analyzed pricing info from the last six months of home sales near each of the area’s stations. Today, the site released data showing a $700,000 price gap on home purchases across Metro’s six lines.

Folks who bought abodes within a one-mile radius of the Red Line’s western end coughed up the most bucks, according to the data, while those who purchased homes close to stations on the Green Line’s southern end sealed the most affordable deals.

With a median home price of $882,500, houses near the Bethesda station were the most expensive. Tenleytown, Friendship Heights, and Medical Center rounded out the top four most costly homes, all on the red line. Out of those remaining in the top 10, half were on the Orange, Silver, and Blue Lines in Arlington—East Falls Church, West Falls Church, and Rosslyn. The rest were near Capitol Hill—Eastern Market, Capitol South, and Potomac Avenue.

Homeowners living in the heart of the city, close to stops like Metro Center and Gallery Place, paid median prices from the low $400,000’s to the mid $500,000’s. Keep in mind, though, that these are average costs. A spot in a place like CityCenter can still run you more than $1 million.

The least costly pieces of real estate show up near the Naylor Road station, where homes average $143,000. Nearby on the Green Line in Prince George’s County, Md., properties near Southern Avenue, Suitland, and Branch Avenue stations averaged at $200,000 or less.

In recent years, D.C.’s affordable housing crisis has become a top priority. While Mayor Muriel Bowser put away $100 million into her Housing Production Trust, the D.C. Housing Authority crossed over to the house-flipping business, claiming that proceeds from properties sold at market rate would support the upkeep of existing public housing and help create new affordable units.
