Property Description

Perfectly positioned on one of Dupont Circle's most picturesque blocks, this grand six-bedroom, three-and-a-half bath residence offers a graceful blend of period detail and thoughtful modernization. A sweeping front staircase welcomes you into a home of scale and sophistication, where soaring ceilings, original inlaid hardwood floors, and handcrafted millwork reflect a bygone era. The fully above-ground terrace level provides a flexible guest suite or potential rental apartment, while the private rear garden and off-street parking enhance both livability and value.

Inside, every space has been beautifully refreshed with new paint throughout and abundant natural light pouring in from large bay windows. The kitchen, completely reimagined in a $100K+ Case Design renovation, was taken down to its original structure, replacing the back wall with French doors leading to a new deck and garden stairs. New flooring, cabinetry, counters, fixtures, plumbing, and electrical were added, while appliances have been recently updated with a new dishwasher and microwave (both 2023). The elegant second-floor owner's suite, fully renovated in 2016, features a private terrace, spa-inspired bath, and high ceilings that invite morning light.

Modern systems include two recent zoned AC units, a furnace, and a water heater, along with a monitored alarm and fire system, and whole-house water filtration; everything to ensure comfort and peace of mind. The home's flexible floor plan includes a formal dining room with pocket doors, a dramatic second-floor lounge, and generous rooms ideal for entertaining. Steps from Rock Creek Park, the Dupont Metro, and the endless shops and cafes of P Street, West End, and Georgetown, with neighborhood favorites like Ching Ching Cha just across the street, this home delivers the best of Washington living: timeless character, elegant design, and a location that simply cannot be surpassed.
