Property Description

Tucked into the coveted enclave of Forest Hills on a private cul de sac, 2853 Allendale Place NW is a timeless 1928 stucco residence that blends classic architecture with thoughtful modern updates across four finished levels. Set on an expansive 8,529 square foot lot, the home is framed by a beautifully landscaped, private backyard with a lush garden and inviting outdoor living spaces.

A gracious foyer welcomes you inside, where the main level unfolds with a traditional living room anchored by a fireplace, a formal dining room, and a well-appointed gourmet kitchen featuring peninsula seating, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. At the rear of the home, a stunning great room addition serves as the true heart of the house, offering table space, heated floors, a 2nd fireplace, remote-controlled skylights/shades, and dramatic soaring walls of glass that overlook the patio and serene backyard. A side den or office with powder room and access to the front balcony provides a perfect work-from-home retreat or quiet escape.

Upstairs, the second level hosts three generously sized bedrooms and two full baths, including a spacious primary suite with a walk-in closet and natural light enhanced by solar tubes. Fixed stairs lead to the top level, where two additional bedrooms await, one with its own en-suite full bath, offering flexible space for guests, family, or creative use.

The lower level is partially finished and includes a laundry area, a third full bath, ample storage, and direct access to the garage.

With its elegant proportions, unique architectural details, and exceptional indoor-outdoor connection, this special home offers both character and comfort in one of DC's most desirable neighborhoods.
