About This Home
As of July 2025MAGNIFICENTLY MIDCENTURY – Nestled into the leafy Mt. Pleasant perch of Harvard Hill, above its namesake street, 1717 Harvard. St. NW, is a gorgeous example from the dawn of Midcentury Modern design. Built by the notable D.C. firm of Berla & Abel in 1943, this handsome home exudes livability and integrity. Whether entering at its forested facade or via the two-car parking pad and adjacent, landscaped patio of durable, engineered flooring, 1717 offers a warm welcome. Across the main/patio level, an airy open space is filled with natural light from the front-facing picture window. Wood floors are radiant beneath this sophisticated blending of living room, dining room and smart kitchen. Below, a large, versatile bedroom off the front entrance includes ensuite, beautifully tiled full bath and separate laundry with newer washer and vented dryer. At top, rear- and front-facing bedrooms are joined by a second full bath and treetop views. Turning toward the practical, rest assured knowing it all rests below a new roof (2019), under warranty for years to come.
