About This Home
* MOTIVATED SELLER, NEW PRICE, HEATED POOL *
This updated residence offers a REDONE KITCHEN WITH ALL-NEW APPLIANCES flowing through an open floor plan and continuing outside to a HEATED POOL and custom-built OUTDOOR KITCHEN in a very PRIVATE BACK YARD that is fully fenced and gated. Built by the Zuckerman Brothers, and meticulously maintained and enhanced by the original owners, this extraordinary residence is deceptively spacious and features 5,731SF of luxury living across FOUR FINISHED LEVELS. It includes an EXPANSIVE PRIMARY SUITE, a FULLY FINISHED WALK-OUT LOWER LEVEL APARTMENT, and an entire TOP LEVEL that is ADAPTABLE FOR USE AS 2 BEDROOMS AND/OR OFFICES WITH A FULL BATHROOM.
With huge windows allowing abundant natural light to fill every corner, this is an entertainers’ paradise designed for contemporary lifestyles that facilitates seamless flow for entertaining inside and out. Family and friends can dine alfresco on the Trex deck overlooking the pool, relax on the stone patio poolside, join together around the outdoor kitchen, and enjoy a lavish dinner party in the formal dining room. Enter its impressive entrance with high ceilings, natural wood floors, and a wide staircase harmoniously connecting all levels above. Adjacent is the formal living room with a wide central hallway flowing to the family room with a fireplace that compliments the large windows to create a space equally elegant and casual. Across from the formal powder room is the oversized formal dining room, which exudes a level of refinement while maintaining a connection with the rest of the floor plan. The open-plan kitchen, equipped with all new appliances and a sun-filled breakfast area, completes the feeling of harmony overlooking the professionally landscaped gardens.
There are 7 luxurious bedrooms, highlighted on the first upper level by the primary suite, which is an oasis occupying the dedicated rear wing of the home and featuring large glass windows overlooking the picturesque natural setting. There is a spacious ensuite bathroom with two large vanities and a Jacuzzi, as well as a comfortable walk-in closet/dressing room. Two generously sized secondary bedrooms sharing a full bath, as well as a third large bedroom with an ensuite bath and walk-in closet, are also on this level along with the primary WALK-IN LAUNDRY ROOM. The second upper level provides spectacular views and boasts two large and inviting spaces easily adaptable for use as bedrooms and/or offices with a full bathroom. The fully finished walk-out lower level features a completely independent apartment with its own entrance. It includes a bedroom, full bathroom, vast living area, a SECOND WALK-IN LAUNDRY ROOM, and ample storage including an under-staircase storage closet -- making it ideal as an au pair or guest suite, or a private office.
The attached TWO-CAR GARAGE, a rarity in the city, is directly accessed from this level along with two private parking spaces immediately out front (in addition to ample street parking). State-of-the-art systems, including HOFHEIMER SECURITY SYSTEMS as well as security cameras around the property with remote access, double-glazed windows for thermal and sound insulation, and two-zoned HVAC enhance livability and peace of mind.
Nestled amidst a quiet, wooded setting in a highly sought after, centralized location in DC’s coveted Kent neighborhood, this expansive home offers timeless elegance, modern amenities, and exceptional craftsmanship for those seeking elevated living in one of DC’s most popular enclaves. Mere steps to neighborhood shops, restaurants, and major access routes in and out of DC, 5127 Cathedral Avenue NW is a masterful blend of convenience and amenities in a luxurious package and incomparable location.
