About This Home
As of January 2025Iconic Georgetown Estate
Discover the timeless elegance of 3210 R St NW, a historic Georgian estate steeped in Georgetown’s rich social and cultural legacy. Once home to prominent figures like yachtsman Walter S. Gubelmann, Pan Am founder Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney, Assistant Secretary of State Chandler Hale, and Supreme Court Justice Abe Fortas, this extraordinary property seamlessly blends historic charm with modern luxury.
Built in 1941, the estate sits on a beautifully landscaped 12,749 SF lot and spans four grand levels. A stately Federal-style facade and circular driveway lead to a striking foyer, where a black-and-white harlequin floor sets the tone for the home’s timeless refinement. Featuring 5 bedrooms, 7 baths, and exceptional architectural details—including soaring ceilings, four neo-classical fireplaces, and abundant natural light—every space exudes sophistication.
Designed for grand entertaining, the banquet-sized dining room and brilliant sunroom overlook the terraces, lush gardens and saltwater pool. These interior spaces flow effortlessly, creating a perfect setting for gatherings both intimate and large, inside and out.
The second-level, “piano nobile”, offers an expansive drawing room and an adjacent library, each graced with a neoclassical fireplace, providing elegant spaces for entertaining or retreat. On the third level, Georgetown’s largest primary suite awaits, complete with dual spa-like baths, two spacious walk-in closets, and a private salon.
The south-facing garden is a hidden oasis, featuring curated landscaping, stone pathways surrounding the 20 x 40 salt-water pool and multiple terraces ideal for year-round enjoyment. Additional highlights include a two-car garage, an elevator, and a versatile lower level in-law suite.
This extraordinary residence is more than a home—it is a legacy of history, beauty, and luxury, offering an unparalleled lifestyle in the heart of Georgetown
