Reagan National Airport...Nestled in the charming residential neighborhood of Burleith, this residence offers a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of Washington. Adjacent to Whitehaven Park, and perched on Georgetown’s shoulder, Burleith is known for its quiet ambiance and friendly nature. It is steps away from Duke Ellington Field’s premier track and field and the scenic trails of Glover Archibald Park and convenient transportation options include the D6 bus on Reservoir Road and 37th Street. Reagan National Airport is just a short drive away via the George Washington Parkway. Built in 1926 and prominently situated above the corner with 100 feet of frontage, this house was built and maintains its position as the jewel of the neighborhood. This distinguished house was renovated and expanded by renowned Georgetown favorites: architect Douglas Rixey and general contractor John Richardson. Prior to the current owners, who owned the home for 10 years, the residence was in the same family since 1948, a testament to its timeless appeal and enduring quality. The house boasts exceptional exposure on three sides—east, west, and south—ensuring abundant natural light and views of the sky from almost every room in the house. Note the slate and copper roofs. A private garage and driveway provide additional storage and convenient off-street parking. Inside are spacious and light filled rooms with solid hardwood floors, and an ideal layout for both everyday living and entertaining. The mature, landscaped gardens have been nurtured, offering impressive curb appeal as well as a private terrace of the house offering a tranquil area perfect for relaxation or hosting gatherings. A large well-proportioned living room features built-in shelving and a wood-burning fireplace with both south and east exposures. The dining room comfortably accommodates a large table and includes a charming nook for a sideboard. The sunroom, with its slate floor, offers a versatile space that can serve as a breakfast, office, or family room. The large, convenient kitchen is a chef’s delight, complete with contemporary countertops, custom cabinetry with pull-out drawers, under-cabinet lighting, and stainless appliances, including a Jenn-Air dual-fuel range, Bosch dishwasher, and GE refrigerator and microwave. There's ample space for either a kitchen table or a central island, and French doors lead from the kitchen to a balcony with steps to the private courtyard with the garage beyond. An additional area off the kitchen is currently set up as a home office with a built-in desk. The powder room on this level is a real convenience. The second floor features a generously sized primary bedroom with three closets: a large walk-in, a deep single, and a linen closet. This large room has views to the east and south presenting wonderful light and sky. The second bedroom is also spacious with a deep closet. The marble and white bathroom is conveniently located off the hall between the two bedrooms with a full-size washer and dryer for easy access. Custom wooden shutters cover the second floor windows. The expansive family room on the lower level, with French doors opening to the private courtyard, is perfect for family gatherings or casual entertaining. The guest bedroom is cozy, featuring carpeting and two ample closets. The bathroom on this level includes a tub and a marble floor. Additionally, there’s a full-sized laundry room with lots of additional storage. As well as the storeroom off the family room, there is a pull down/stand up attic, space above the garage, and exterior closets off the patio.
