About This Home

As of July 2024

Get a little bit of history and a whole lot of updated in this striking jumbo-sized one bed/one bath penthouse condo at the nexus between Kalorama/Adams Morgan, one of DC's most coveted entertainment and livability hubs. Highlights include 9.5 foot ceilings, abundant light throughout (north-facing), an expansive combined living dining area with central wood-burning fireplace and a double-wide walkout balcony PLUS an assigned parking spot. Major updates include Pella double hung windows plus all new kitchen and bath, and last but not least a brand new HVAC system with a heat pump. The super functional re-configured two tone kitchen features Fabuwood shaker cabinets (nickel on the bottom, frost on the top), quartz countertops (Calacatta Laza), a 66 inch storage island/breakfast bar, Studio McGee zelige tile backsplash, pull out garbage and spice rack, recessed LED lighting, plus all new energy efficient SS appliances, including gas cooking.

The inviting and warm spa-like bathroom includes Fabuwood shaker cabinetry in timber, and an eye-catching double vanity that has been coupled with a concordant Calacatta Idillio quartz countertop. Each of the sinks is paired with its own recessed Kohler medicine cabinet in nickel while an array of towel racks and hooks provide plenty of options for towel use and storage. The intent to provide functionality is further expressed by four vertically placed dimmable LED light bars. On the opposite side you will find an all new grip floor Kohler bathtub with a low-profile glass panel door and entry gate. For the surround, we chose large format 12x24 minimal color-variation double porcelain tile from Italy (less grout lines) in a polished finish and for the floors we went with the same in a matt finish for increased grip. And finally there is a concealed trap high efficiency toilet along with a double hung privacy window.

Throughout you will also find all new electric, most of which is dimmable. and all new paint by Sherwin Williams...plus all new humidity-friendly wide plank (7.5 inch) warm-toned engineered hardwood floors.

Next up, there is an adjoining office/den featuring newly-installed recessed lighting and a wall to wall built-in bookcase. A laundry closet at the bathroom end with all new washer and dryer hookup provides the perfect set up for a ventless washer and dryer, should anyone wish to install one. The ultra spacious bedroom across from it includes two double wide built-in closets with all new organizers, along with a newly installed ceiling fan, again in the contemporary style. Need parking? We got you covered with a dedicated parking spot in the rear.

Amenities include basement storage and community laundry.

Pet-friendly. Fantastic central location hub with easy access to the best of Kalorama, Adams Morgan, Woodley Park, Dupont Circle, and U Street. Walk score of 97 with restaurants and bars galore. Be sure to check out the two walk-on tennis courts across the street on 18th St, and nearby Kalorama Park to the west. Closest metro is Dupont Circle. Spring bonus: Enjoy your own private Cherry Blossom Festival courtesy of a spectacular double kwanzan cherry tree that spans the width of the double length balcony.
