Property Description
Introducing a timeless masterpiece: a stunning 1920’s neo-classic Italianate mansion boasting over 8,500 interior square feet, nestled on a large corner lot in prestigious Observatory Circle, just blocks from the Vice President’s residence, the National Cathedral and Embassy Row. This architectural marvel is a perfectly symmetrical manse, adorned with grand Palladian windows and striking exterior, providing the perfect sanctuary for the most discerning of homeowners. The stately center hall and wide main staircase with mahogany railings set a grand tone from the moment you enter, and the gorgeous wood floors, 6 fireplaces, and intricate crown molding add to the classic elegance of this home. The spacious main level beckons with graceful proportions and sun-drenched spaces, offering multiple rooms for entertaining and relaxing: formal living and dining rooms, family/TV room, two sunrooms on opposite wings of the home, a library with floor-to-ceiling built-in bookshelves, a large, gourmet eat-in kitchen, and a full bath. On the second floor, discover 4 bedrooms with 3 full baths, including the luxurious primary suite boasting two walk-in closets, fireplace, a large ensuite bath with two vanities, two water closets, double shower, jacuzzi tub, plus adjoining gym space and laundry area, as well as a separate, sunny home office. The third floor offers two additional bedrooms, a full bath with skylight, and ample storage. The lower level of this distinguished home boasts a large 2BR/1BA in-law suite with full eat-in kitchen, living room, laundry area and separate entrance, along with plenty of storage space. A 2-car attached garage completes the package. Outside, an expansive deck offers the perfect space for al fresco gatherings or peaceful mornings, surrounded by lush landscaping and mature plantings that ensure privacy and tranquility. There is also a sunlit garden on both the eastern and western expanses of the lot. Situated in one of Washington D.C’s most sought-after neighborhoods, you’ll be in close proximity to top schools, parks, shopping, and all the cultural delights the city has to offer. This is a home without compromise.
