3212 Klingle Road

华盛顿市, DC 20008

Welcome to one of the prettiest streets in our Nation’s Capital and to 3212 Klingle Rd NW, a home and area built to replicate the 1920’s English countryside with its deep gardens and verdant plantings. The famous architect, Mihran Mesrobian and developer Harry Wardman built the home in 1923 yet almost 100 years later, the home retains many original striking details including soaring ceilings, ornate crown molding, a Harry Wardman signature fireplace mantle and cedar closets. It has been well maintained by its current owners and thoughtfully improved. This spacious home has so much to offer including an inviting living room with bay window, window seat, a wood burning fireplace and gleaming hardwood floors. The living room opens to an elegant dining room with recessed lighting that seats 10 comfortably, a sunroom with 2 skylights and a wall of windows overlooking a 2 tiered deck and fully fenced flat backyard that is anchored by a 2-car garage (plus extra parking pad for 1 more car). The updated kitchen with porcelain floors, upscale appliances and granite countertops completes this level. The second floor features 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. The primary bedroom and bathroom have new Pella windows and plantation shutters. The recently renovated en-suite primary bathroom has heated marble floors, a vanity sink with marble banjo countertop, a 2 person shower and heated towel bar. There are 2 other bedrooms on this level, one with built-in bookshelves and plantation shutters; the other with built-in book shelves and drawers plus 2 closets. The 2 bedrooms share a hall bath with tub, shower and vanity sink. The top floor bedroom with 2 large skylights and en-suite bathroom has been newly carpeted and offers excellent storage in addition to 4 closets, of which 2 are cedar. The lower level (with separate entrance) has flexible use, either as a 5th bedroom with en-suite bathroom, large closet and wet bar or as a family/recreation room. It is newly carpeted. The 5th bedroom/family room leads to a charming brick patio and the rear grounds beyond. And that is not all. Not to be missed is a true luxury: a climate controlled cedar wine cellar that can hold up to 2000 bottles! The grounds and views looking out are a delight from the stone front walkway and mature plantings to the expansive rear yard, ideal for entertaining and enjoying a bottle of vintage wine from the new owner’s collection. 3212 Klingle Rd NW is ideally located among several independent schools, a newly renovated public elementary school scheduled for completion in August, national landmarks such as the National Cathedral and Tregaron Estates, the shops and restaurants of Connecticut and Wisconsin Avenues and the Woodley Park METRO. For convenience, light, space and comfortable living, this is a must see!
