About This Home

As of February 2025

Welcome to 475 H St NW #2-R, an architectural masterpiece in Washington, DC’s Penn Quarter, designed by the renowned Robert M. Gurney. This one-of-a-kind, three-level home combines contemporary elegance with industrial luxury in the heart of the city.

The main level captivates with an awe-inspiring, expansive skylight that floods the home with natural light, creating a dynamic, sunlit atmosphere on every level. The main living room—truly the heart of the home—is a striking space anchored by high ceilings and modern finishes, where the full impact of the skylight is on display. Adjacent to the living room is the front sitting room, a more intimate space featuring a wood-burning fireplace and recently upgraded windows that fill the room with more light.

The commercial-grade kitchen is equipped with top-tier stainless steel Miele and Sub-Zero appliances, a central island, generous storage, and a custom eye-catching stainless steel wall. Toward the rear of the main level, a media room with frosted windows serves as an ideal space for a den, home theater or office.
The second level continues the theme of thoughtful, light-filled spaces, with a unique bridge walkway beneath the skylight that leads to the luxurious primary suite, which includes a sliding steel door, an updated bathroom with a steam shower, and abundant closet space. This floor also includes two additional spacious bedrooms, a full bath, and a convenient laundry room.

The top floor is the crown jewel of this home, offering an extraordinary indoor-outdoor living experience with private roof decks on either side. Fully retractable garage doors open to reveal breathtaking city views, inviting fresh air to flow in and creating an ideal setting for entertaining or unwinding. The central area between the decks is a versatile space that can easily transform into a fitness area, a cozy lounge, or even an additional office.

Recent upgrades to this home include reinforced roofing, a new HVAC system, Ipe Brazilian hardwood on the top floor, high-traffic industrial flooring throughout, and double-hung, laminated impact-resistant windows. The home is also equipped with a fully integrated Sonos AV system, custom shelving, and stainless steel cabinetry for added storage.

Located in Penn Quarter within the historic Chinatown District, this property places you steps from Capital One Arena, acclaimed museums and galleries, world-class dining, and premier shopping at CityCenterDC. This is a rare opportunity to own a home of this caliber in one of DC’s most desirable neighborhoods—schedule your tour today to experience 475 H St NW firsthand!
