This impressive Colonial Revival is desirably located on a generous .36-acre lot on one of the most sought-after streets in Washington, DC. The house is set back from the street behind a row of hedges, providing privacy while still providing impressive curb appeal. Originally built in 1939, the house has been expanded to nearly 7,000 square feet of interior living space. The residence has undergone extensive renovations with the masterful collaboration of Horizon Builders, BarnesVanze Architects, and Andrew Law Interior Design. No detail was overlooked in this meticulous renovation, which includes the highest quality fixtures and finishes throughout. The house features elegant entertaining rooms and comfortable family living spaces, all of which are filled with an abundance of natural sunlight. The gracious foyer has sightline views to the rear of the house and provides seamless transition to the main living spaces. The formal living room is flooded with sunlight and includes a large bay window and offers convenient access to the neighboring wood-paneled office with built-ins. The sophisticated dining room is beautifully scaled and has a lovely central fireplace. Adjacent is the well-appointed gourmet kitchen with marble countertops and backsplash, a large center island with a breakfast bar, abundant cabinetry, and a walk-in pantry with an ice maker. The kitchen opens to the breakfast room and then to the newly enclosed sunroom, which has walls of windows on all sides and overhead skylights. The kitchen provides exterior access through French doors to the private side terrace and garden. There is also a large paneled family room/library on this floor with built-in shelving and cabinetry, as well as the added convenience of an attractive marble powder room.

The bathroom also provides access to the private balcony off the primary suite. All of the additional bedrooms on this floor are spacious and all bathrooms have been beautifully updated. The third floor has an additional bedroom suite with a luxurious bathroom and ample closets. The lower level of the residence has a large recreation room with a wet bar and secondary refrigerator and freezer.
