About this home

Exquisite top-floor residence at 2540 Massachusetts Avenue NW, a distinguished cooperative on Embassy Row in Kalorama. Designed by Harry L. Edwards and developed by Monroe and R. Bates Warren in 1926, this landmark building—featured in James M. Goode’s Best Addresses—embodies timeless elegance and sophisticated urban living.
Completely renovated by the award-winning design-build firm BOWA, this east-facing residence is filled with natural light and beautifully blends classic architectural detail with modern comfort. A formal entry foyer opens to an expansive living room, where tall windows frame leafy Kalorama views and 8-inch crown mouldings accentuate the home’s refined character. Adjacent, a dedicated dining area flows seamlessly into the gourmet kitchen, featuring custom cabinetry, premium appliances, and detailed millwork that complements the building’s historic charm.
The private primary suite serves as a peaceful retreat, complete with a walk-in closet and a marble-appointed en suite bath. A dedicated office nook, abundant closet storage, and central air conditioning enhance both comfort and functionality, while the thoughtful layout creates an effortless sense of flow—ideal for entertaining or quiet everyday living.

Completed in 1926 and featured in Best Addresses, 2540 Massachusetts Avenue NW—historically known as The Army & Navy Apartments—stands as one of Washington’s most prestigious pre-war cooperatives. Designed in the Beaux-Arts style, the six-story building comprises just thirty-one grand residences and contributes to both the Massachusetts Avenue and Sheridan-Kalorama Historic Districts. Its setting on Embassy Row, long associated with diplomats, ambassadors, and presidents, underscores its enduring prestige. Carefully preserved with a dedicated preservation plan, 2540 Massachusetts Avenue offers not just a home, but a place within the city’s storied legacy.
