***FOR COMP PURPOSES *** Few names evoke ideas of masterful design in Washington as Christian Zapatka, one of the city's preeminent architects responsible for some of its most distinguished residences. In a collaboration with the visionary Dilan Homes, 5032 Tilden Street NW stands at the forefront of a movement to revitalize Washginton's streetscapes. A complete reinvention of a classic Spring Valley colonial prominently perched above the winding tree-lined street, the home retains its original 1939 character while being propelled into the demanding modern era. With the addition of an entirely new top level, the home's dramatic curb appeal is bolstered by a combination of slate and contemporary metal roofing, representing the union of old and new throughout. Inside, the new floor plan is fully open concept and comprises only the highest caliber of finishes, but still retains a traditional center hall layout befitting the home's pedigree. Formal living and dining rooms flank the ethereal foyer hall, spanning the entire depth of the original floor plan. In the living room, a roaring fireplace serves as the centerpiece, while the dining room features a butler's pantry discreetly tucked behind a swinging door, affording direct connection to the kitchen. A central vestibule serves as the gateway between formal and informal areas, of which the latter is situated in an entirely new wing. The space fully caters towards a modern lifestyle, with the open kitchen anchored by an expansive center island with integrated seating. The large family room opens directly onto the rear lawn via double doors, enabling a seamless flow of indoor and outdoor entertaining. Above this space on the second level is the sumptuous primary suite opening onto a private terrace overlooking the rear lawn. Luxurious amenities abound, including a lavish bath replete with twin vanities, freestanding soaking tub, glass shower and water closet. Double walk-in closets lined with custom built-ins offer ample, stylish storage. Two secondary bedrooms, each generously proportioned and featuring both walk-in closets as well as ensuite baths, complete the level. On the newly added top floor, a large central recreation room serves limitless purposes. A fourth bedroom suite and two hobby rooms greatly enhance flexibility. The new attached two-car garage accesses the lower level and is a rarity in the city. Out back, a stone terrace takes full advantage of the premier flat, usable, private rear lawn. Led by a distinguished team and built to the highest standards, 5032 Tilden Street NW stands at the pinnacle of Spring Valley.
