About this home
Welcome to this truly exceptional Grand Victorian townhouse, a seamless fusion of historic elegance and contemporary luxury, nestled in vibrant Columbia Heights/ U Street. Spanning four meticulously designed levels, this stately residence has been transformed by its architect-inspired owners into a one-of-a-kind custom home.
From the moment you enter, the attention to detail is evident. The heart of the home is a Chef’s Gourmet Kitchen—an entertainer’s dream—featuring dual 10-foot islands, matching Cafe Commercial stainless steel appliances which include a 6-burner gas cooktop with a powerful canopy hood. There is an abundance of storage within custom shaker cabinetry topped with stunning Calcutta Quartz counters from Cambria (the Highest grade was installed and has a lifetime warranty).
Though this early 20th-century gem already had strong architectural bones, the current owners envisioned more than a renovation—they undertook a full-scale transformation. What began as a kitchen and bathroom update evolved into a comprehensive reimagining, including brand new flooring throughout entire home, brand new staircases, NEW HVAC/Central Heating system (previously radiator heating), tankless water heater, drywall, electrical systems, staircases, and ceilings. Recessed and statement lighting fixtures have been installed throughout to bring warmth and sophistication to every room, especially the oversized bedrooms w/elegant ceiling fans.
Original updated wall moldings accentuate the soaring ceilings and mirror/wall trims on each level, while rich textures and bold colors define the ultra-luxurious bathrooms. The home retains its original character with orginal 1910 preserved wood-burning fireplaces, hallway entry mirrors (amazing millwork), and stained glass in the living and dining rooms (Restoration Hardware chandeliers will convey), blending old-world charm with modern flair. Let's not forget the stunning wide plank engineered white oak flooring that has been installed throughout this fabulous home.
Upstairs, a former bedroom has been reconfigured into a lavish walk-in closet (California Closets) for the primary suite (this is the 5th bedroom and can be converted back to a bedroom- we would add wall closets to primary suite), leading to what can only be described as a “bathroom of the century,” complete with leather-embossed wall finishes and gold-accented hardware for an unforgettable spa-like experience.
A private, screened-in rooftop deck with fabulous views awaits just beyond the home office or guest suite—your perfect hideaway above the city (this could also be converted to another room if needed).
The fully finished basement includes its own private entrance with a full kitchen and washer/dryer- offering endless flexibility as a guest suite, in-law apartment, or potential income-generating unit....
