Property Description

This distinguished residence presents a compelling opportunity. From its gracious living spaces and refined architectural details to its warmth, charm, and effortless livability, this home balances classic elegance with modern comfort in a way that is both rare and enduring.
Set on a rare double lot, this stately 1918 Craftsman is a home of enduring beauty, timeless character, and quiet distinction. Framed by a canopy of magnificent cherry blossoms bursting into a kaleidoscope of spring colour, a gracious full-width porch welcomes you home—an enchanting setting for slow mornings, evening conversations, and the soothing rhythm of summer rain, just as it has for generations before.
Spanning four thoughtfully designed levels, the home offers five bedrooms, 4.5 baths, and nearly 3,000 square feet of richly detailed living space. Diamond-pane doors open to an elegant foyer where original millwork and refined craftsmanship immediately set the tone. A superb formal dining room and an exceptionally chic living room with a log-burning fireplace create refined yet inviting spaces for both entertaining and everyday living. The living and dining rooms flow seamlessly through a classic Craftsman colonnade, accented by beautifully refinished hardwood floors that continue throughout the main level and staircase.
At the heart of the home, the expansive kitchen and dining area is flooded with natural light and designed for both effortless daily living and elegant entertaining. Generous counters and a central island create a welcoming gathering space, while opening up to a sun-drenched porch that beautifully blurs the line between indoors and out.
Upstairs, a bright and airy landing introduces the private quarters, including the serene primary suite and a charming guest bedroom with direct access to the railed upper porch. An additional bedroom and guest bathroom complete the level. The top floor reveals yet another enchanting bedroom tucked beneath the eaves.
The superb lower level extends the home's versatility with a spacious family or bonus room, a full-size kitchen with exterior entrance, an additional bedroom, a luxurious roll top bath, and a second laundry—ideal for guests, an au pair, creative pursuits, or a potential rental opportunity.
Outdoors, the gardens and grounds embrace the exceptional double lot, offering rare space, privacy, and tranquility in one of the area's most beloved settings. Just moments from the Historic District's cafés, boutiques, dining, and year-round farmers market, and conveniently close to the Washington Metro Red Line, Sligo Creek Trail, and the Metropolitan Branch Trail, this exceptional home also offers swift access to downtown Washington via North Capitol, 16th Street NW, and Georgia Avenue.
A rare offering where timeless elegance, historic provenance, and modern livability come beautifully together.
