About This Home
As of November 2025Tucked into a private, tree-lined setting, this custom-built contemporary dazzles with light, volume, and serenity. Vaulted ceilings and expansive windows frame leafy vistas—including owner’s-suite views toward the Virginia hills while a seamless indoor/outdoor flow leads to a covered deck overlooking stone and flower gardens. Thoughtfully renovated throughout, the home features an all-new chef’s kitchen, spa-caliber baths, refreshed exterior, and a fenced rear yard. Flexible living abounds with 5 bedrooms / 3 baths, a private lower-level au pair/guest efficiency, and everyday conveniences like a driveway plus 1-car garage. Moments to Glen Echo Park and the C&O Canal & Towpath, offering miles of riverside hiking and biking trails. At the park, ride the historic 1921 Dentzel Carousel, catch children’s theatre at Adventure Theatre MTC, enjoy shows at The Puppet Co., take art classes, and dance nights in the Spanish Ballroom, with festivals year-round. It’s an amenity set that feels more like a lifestyle.
