Property Description
Tucked away in Historic Mount Pleasant, just one block from the National Zoo, 1819 Kenyon Street is an extraordinarily crafted Mediterranean-style rowhome boasting 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, 3 half bathrooms, and a completely separate carriage house all spread over an expansive 4,400 est. sq. ft of living space. Stunning original details such as intricate moldings, large-scale rooms, and gleaming hardwood floors seamlessly combine with elegant updates for today's homeowner. Multiple skylights, soaring ceiling heights, and oversized windows flood every space with light, adding to the airiness and grandeur of this magnificent home.
Enter through the formal foyer to a sunlit seating area or ideal office, marked by stately columns, striking moldings, and a classic brick fireplace. Concealed doors open onto the home's laundry room, mudroom area, pet wash station, and bonus storage room perfect for a wine cellar. Upstairs, the main level features a grand, light-filled living room with a fireplace and custom built-ins, a stylish dry bar for entertaining, and the formal dining room perfect for large gatherings. The rear of the home is anchored by a fully renovated kitchen boasting a BlueStar 6-burner range, LG French door refrigerator, eat-at peninsula, and a sunny breakfast room reminiscent of a Parisian café with exposed brick, painted wainscoting, and an oversized skylight. The butler's pantry adds convenience with a second sink and beverage center, while a stunning powder room with stained glass windows completes this level.
The upper levels offer a range of flexible spaces, all drenched in light from large windows and a huge over-stair skylight. On the third level, enjoy a generously sized bedroom with walk-in closet, en-suite bath, and cozy fireplace; a sun-filled second bedroom with a beautifully tiled en-suite bathroom and curbless shower; and a versatile office or playroom beneath an impressive two-story ceiling. The top floor showcases an airy primary suite with cathedral ceilings, glass-paneled French doors, and beautiful views of the surrounding greenery. Start and end your day in the luxurious primary bathroom featuring a clawfoot tub, floating double-vanity, and walk-in shower. Adjacent is a light-filled windowed closet or fourth bedroom, outfitted with custom storage.
A rare highlight of this property is the fully detached carriage house—an impeccably renovated 1 bedroom, 1.5 bath residence. It offers a spacious living and dining area, a full kitchen, and stacked laundry, all drenched in sunlight from two skylights and a multitude of windows. This flexible space is perfect for long-term guests, multi-generational living, or as a premium rental opportunity. Outdoor living is effortless with a private rear patio connecting the main house and carriage house, providing an ideal setting for relaxation and al fresco dining.
Stroll up to Mount Pleasant Street for coffee, yoga, shopping, dining, and more, or get outdoors on the trails of Rock Creek Park or at the National Zoo. Convene with neighbors at “Acorn Park” around the corner and hit up the Saturday Farmer's Market on Mount Pleasant Street. In bounds for Bancroft Elementary, just a few blocks away, as well as Deal Middle School and Jackson-Reed High School. With its unique architecture, light-filled interiors, and flexible living options, 1819 Kenyon Street is an extraordinary offering in one of DC's most cherished neighborhoods.
