Boasting 5 bedrooms, 4 baths and over 2,800 finished square feet of living space, this home offers city living at its best. Originally built in 1900, the property underwent a meticulous renovation and marries the comforts and conveniences of modern living with the timelessness of a historic home. The open-floor plan of the main level features a large living room with gas fireplace, separate dining area, and an impressive chef's kitchen with Viking appliances and Kraftmaid cabinetry. The second floor includes the light-filled and serene primary suite with custom Elfa closets and a spa-like ensuite bathroom with rain shower, Koehler jacuzzi tub and heated floors. The library, also on the second floor includes custom built-ins and could easily serve a multitude of purposes. Two additional large bedrooms are found on the third floor, connected by a spacious jack and jill bathroom. The recently added renovated roof deck, with 360 degree views of DC, is perfect for entertaining and outdoor living. The fully separated lower level can be used as an income-generating apartment or the perfect au-pair or in-law suite, as the light-filled level features its own front and rear entrances, updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, and a spacious bedroom with full bathroom. This home also features an extremely rare sub-basement level, which is climate controlled and is perfect for storage. With handsome hardwood floors and high ceilings throughout, this home is replete with high-end finishes and is an opportunity to own a unique, and truly one of a kind property in the heart of Washington.
