Description:

PRICE REDUCED! Welcome to The Wyoming, a "Best Address" in Washington, DC, exuding early 20th-century grandeur. This rare Beaux Arts condominium offers a blend of historic charm with urban city living. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, The Wyoming was formerly home to notable figures such as Activist and author Betty Friedan and former President Dwight Eisenhower. The ornate marble lobby was featured in the Clint Eastwood movie, "Absolute Power." The building offers 24-7 concierge, a stunning shared roof-top deck, a common indoor space, and a lush rear garden with a play area for children.   A captivating home with tales to tell as the former lobby before the second wing was built by architect B. Stanley Simmons and developer Lester A. Barr.  The home's imposing columns and distinctive built-in cabinetry stand as a reminder of the space's past life as the entry to the building. You'll find typical Beaux Arts features—tall ceilings, arched doorways, large windows, and extensive millwork—plus unexpected, unique and dramatic renovations by the former designer owners in the 1990’s: a wild modernist character kitchen filled with built-in display nooks; bold bathrooms with flair; and a built-in primary canopy bed backed by a dressing room fit for a queen. You truly have to see this home to believe it. Located in sought-after Kalorama you'll be in the heart of DC and within walking distance to all that the city has to offer. Tons of local businesses and restaurants are just down the street in Adams Morgan, wonderful restaurants just blocks away in DuPont Circle, you'll have your pick of multiple Farmer's Markets within a stones throw. A plethora of green space awaits at the nearby Kalorama Park, walk to the Zoo, Georgetown, and Rock Creek with walking paths, dog parks, and horse trails. Just half a mile from the DuPont Circle metro and multiple options for transportation are right outside your door.
