Stunning three level row home totally renovated by Yvette Freeman co-owner of District Design & Development. The renovation included removing all interior walls on the main living area providing for a spectacular open design that is ideal for entertaining on a grand scale or for hosting intimate gatherings. Entering this home, you know you are going to experience something special. The attention to detail, use of high end materials throughout, and the unique architectural elements create a space and sense like no other home in the DC area. Soaring ceiling heights, a large area for dining, chef's grade kitchen with gorgeous cabinetry, white Carrara marble counter tops, Viking Refrigerator, Bertazzoni Range, ice maker, and wine fridge are what you first notice. Stay for a minute longer and you will notice the uniqueness that makes this home so special. Custom hard wood floors distressed by the developer to make them period relevant are stunning. The kitchen and the adjacent living room both have tray ceilings, added as part of the recent renovation, which create a truly cohesive flow throughout the main floor. The centerpiece though may be the exquisite handblown Murano glass chandelier in the living room. Imported from Italy, this is a unique and beautiful piece of functional art. Oversized glass doors allow access to the beautifully landscaped and terraced back patio and the secure parking area. Up the flight of stairs are three bedrooms and two baths. The primary suite with its 16 foot plus ceilings offers drama and yet, with the custom painting and flowing draperies, creates a sense of intimacy and tranquility. The primary bath features a custom vanity with marble sink, frameless glass shower and soaking tub. The second bedroom with its skylight in the center is beautifully lit and a perfect size. The third bedroom has a large balcony with enough space for a cafe table ideal for enjoying the glorious vista of the backyard. The lowest level, which had 16 inches excavated out during the renovation to allow for eight foot ceilings, is perfect as the fourth bedroom with a custom Murphy bed for guests or a great "work from home" office offering custom built in furniture. It is wonderful as is or could be converted easily to a rental unit as it has an exterior access door. A stunning home benefitting from a recent full renovation, offering perfect finishes and spectacular interior space, with a glorious outdoor area and secure parking…welcome home.
