About This Home
As of October 2021This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a home on the most beautiful residential circle in DC. 23 Logan Circle, NW is one of the rare remaining single-family historic homes on Logan Circle. The house retains many of its original features and much of its character combined with judicious updates. The twenty-five-foot frontage with its wide bay window offers a look into the popular urban oasis that Logan Circle has become.
Built in 1883, the house was designed for grand entertaining with the elegance and grace of the period. Among the architectural features are multiple fireplaces and a sweeping three-story mahogany and oak paneled staircase. The main floor has double parlors with eleven-foot ceilings, working pocket doors, magnificent moldings, ceiling medallions and wood floors. The full formal dining room, also with high ceilings and detail, leads to an enormous kitchen with den or family room adjacent.
There are four bedrooms and three full baths on the second floor. The larger bedrooms can easily accomodate Victorian furniture.
The third floor has two bedrooms, one full bath and a kitchenette.
The full, unfinished basement contains the laundry area and a full bath, in addition to several rooms available for storage or renovation. There is a rear yard with a deck and off-street parking.
23 Logan Circle NW lived the last years of its life as the Chester A. Arthur Guest House. Although President Arthur never stayed there, as far as is known, the house was built during his brief term for his Under Secretary of the Treasury. The bed and breakfast generated high marks from Trip Advisor for its charm as well as its location.
The house is ideally situated at Logan Circle with its plethora of restaurants, shopping and entertainment. 23 Logan Circle, NW, is just blocks from all Metro lines, is on a bus line and has easy access to major roads. Walk/Transit/Bike Scores are 98/85/99. Logan Circle has been described by National Geographic as one of the top 28 friendliest neighborhoods in the United States. Logan Circle itself is a National Park and a National Landmark.
