Conveniently located between Connecticut...Integrated into the natural terrain, this Mid-Century Modern home overlooks magnificent views of The Melvin C. Hazen Branch of Rock Creek Park, and blends stunning contemporary architecture with expansive glass, neutral brick and seamless indoor-outdoor living with a spacious slate patio accessible from two levels. Recently remodeled interiors feature soaring ceilings, 3 oversized fireplaces, gorgeous original warm wood floors and updated systems throughout. Conveniently located between Connecticut and Wisconsin Ave in Cleveland Park, metro, fine dining and shopping are steps away, as are numerous public and private schools.

The main level, accessed by a short flight of stairs, features the original mid-century open-plan: Living, Dining and Kitchen all take full advantage of the forest vista through a wall of new windows. The mammoth fireplace is the main focal point, calling all to gather around for revelry or calm winter moments; it is breathtaking, drawing attention to the 15 foot ceiling that forms the ridge of the home. A convenient grilling patio off of the kitchen with some stone seating makes for a fine impromptu grill night spot. A family room, 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms are also situated on the main level, making one-level living a snap - fair warning, it will spoil you.

The primary bedroom with its spacious closets, reading nook and remodeled en suite bath is a show stopper. Clerestory windows in the rear and huge picture windows in front provide privacy where needed and spectacular forest views everywhere else.

A family room with built-in bookshelves, a huge picture window and an original fireplace sets the stage for family relaxation.

Two additional bedrooms share a remodeled hall bath.

On the Lower Level: A bright playroom, a bedroom with en suite bathroom, utility room with laundry (adjacent to the garage) with a full bath complete the finished space. There is unfinished space in the basement that could serve as a wine cellar or dark room.


The 4th bedroom opens onto the front outdoor entertainment patio, and currently doubles as office space. Situated next to the playroom, this bedroom / playroom / full bathroom could form a luxurious in-law suite.

The home’s heritage Deodora cedar is a neighborhood landmark, and speaks to the timeless nature of this MCM masterpiece; the current owners have picked up that thread and further enhanced and restored the property with thoughtful choices. It is a home that takes full advantage of its setting in nature and its proximity to urban living.
