Property Description
Step through the generous foyer into a sun-drenched main level, where a spacious living room with wood-burning fireplace sets the tone for warmth and sophistication. A formal dining room flows effortlessly into the NARI award-winning kitchen, featuring three ovens, a gas range, and built-in microwave, plus abundant counter space - ideal for meal prep and entertaining. Distinctive touches such as a custom stained-glass cupboard and vintage-inspired glass laundry room door elevate the design. A pair of French doors leads from the dining room to a sunny rear deck and fenced backyard—perfect for al fresco dining and everyday enjoyment.
Upstairs, the 2024 renovation shines with four well-proportioned bedrooms and two luxurious full baths. The primary suite is a serene retreat with a walk-in closet and spa-inspired en-suite bath, showcasing a double vanity, frameless glass shower, and Art Deco–inspired marble detailing, with sunlight streaming through privacy-preserving windows. The custom guest bath impresses with porcelain tile, an extra-deep soaking tub, and a sleek glass partition.
The partially finished third-floor attic provides flexible bonus space for a home office, studio, or playroom. The lower level includes a half bath, laundry area, high ceilings, and nearly 1,000 square feet of potential—ready for your vision as a media room, home gym, guest suite, or ample storage.
Major systems are highly energy efficient, including ductless high-velocity central AC and a tankless all-in-one combi furnace/water heater. Solar panels leased via Solar Solutions reduce monthly electric costs.
Out back, a detached garage features a built-in EV charging station and easily accommodates a large vehicle with additional room for storage.
Located in one of DC's most beloved neighborhoods, 16th Street Heights is prized for its welcoming community, wide tree-lined avenues, and easy access to nature, shopping, and dining. Zoned for John Lewis Elementary and Alice Deal Middle School, this home also enjoys proximity to Uptown Main Street's retail and restaurants, the Uptown Farmers Market, and beautiful city parks.
Priced below recent neighborhood sales yet offering superior finishes and thoughtful, turnkey updates throughout. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a beautifully preserved and elevated home in one of Washington's most desirable residential enclaves.
Owner is a licensed real estate agent.
