Property Description
Another extraordinary complete transformation by WJ Development, this newly reimagined residence is perfectly sited at the end of a tranquil cul-de-sac on one of the neighborhood's largest and flattest parcels. Offering 6 bedrooms, 5.5 baths, and approximately 6,050 total square feet, this home delivers refined living across four beautifully curated levels.
The main level impresses with 9-foot ceilings, designer lighting, and a seamless open layout connecting the gourmet kitchen, family room, living room, and dining area—all leading to outdoor entertaining spaces. Custom cabinetry, luxury appliances, and elevated finishes create a kitchen that is both stunning and functional.
The second level features four spacious bedrooms and two full baths, including a serene primary suite with a custom walk-in wardrobe room, spa-inspired bath, and separate laundry room. The top level offers a private lounge, additional bedroom and bath, and access to a large roof deck with sweeping treetop views.
The fully finished lower level includes a generous recreation room, bedroom, and full bath—ideal for guests, wellness space, or a separate retreat.
A rare offering in the city, the property includes a detached three-car garage with a beautifully appointed apartment suite above, complete with its own walk-out deck—perfect for guests, an office, or an additional living area.
Set on a 0.20-acre flat lot, the outdoor spaces provide exceptional room for outdoor activities, gardening, or future enhancements—something seldom found in DC. Moments from the shops and restaurants of Glover Park, the National Cathedral, and Cathedral Commons, this home offers both convenience and tranquility in a premier location.
