Property Description
Built with precision craftsmanship and incorporating distinctive architectural artifacts, the home features salvaged heart pine floors, Art Nouveau and Arts and Crafts fireplace mantels and newels, stained glass door panels, skylights and transoms, antique lighting and plumbing fixtures, solid Douglas fir doors and carved trims and plaster crown moldings. You'll find all modern conveniences such as a dual-zone HVAC system, tankless hot water heater, central vacuum, backup generator, extensive yet non-obtrusive solar panels, and modern security and camera systems. An elevator services all floors, while large custom Pella windows provide stunning views of the large property and its mature elm, Japanese maple, oak, yellowwood, magnolia, redbud and dogwood trees.
The Queen Anne Victorian and arts and crafts exterior is architecturally distinct, with a bell turret topped by a copper finial, and features cedar shakes and siding, copper gutters and downspouts, a hot tub and pond with waterfall, a brick foundation, granite block patios and mature, low maintenance plantings. The large and welcoming mahogany front and rear porches have skylights and copper lighting fixtures.
Step inside the stained-glass antique entry doors to the breathtaking 3-story grand foyer, with its heart pine and Douglas fir turning staircase, below a Frank Lloyd Wright style skylight, bracketed by a formal living room and dining room with heavy Douglas fir pocket doors. The incomparable chef's kitchen opens to an architecturally stunning breakfast room and den, and boasts cherry cabinets, granite countertops, high-end appliances (Viking, Sub-Zero, Dacor), and a fully-screened porch. The comfortable den includes a gas fireplace and built-in cabinetry for electronics and TV, including a Bose sound system with speakers that service much of the house.
The second floor boasts a luxurious master bedroom and sitting area with a wood-burning fireplace and marble bath with heated floors, steam shower and jetted tub, Douglas fir library with Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired stained glass pocket doors, and two additional bedrooms with a Jack and Jill bath. The third floor features two bedrooms, a large sitting area, and a well-appointed bathroom with sky views, as well as ample attic storage. The ground floor offers a two-car garage, carpeted bedroom, full bath, recreation room, and beautiful wine cellar.
Located steps from the C&O Canal and Potomac River, and minutes from downtown DC and Bethesda, this exceptional home is within the sought-after Walt Whitman School District. This is a rare chance to own a beautiful, incomparably crafted home combining history, beauty and modern luxury.
