Description:

Price improvement for this lovely 2 BR | 2 BA architect-designed residence in the heart of Washington, DC. Thoughtfully renovated for modern life, this award-winning home seamlessly blends historic character with bold, contemporary design. Natural light defines the interior. It pours through overhead skylights and a dramatic three-story wall of windows, drawing the eye upward and connecting each level. The vertical layout creates a sense of openness and movement, complemented by exposed brick, bamboo flooring, and sculptural floating staircases. The kitchen is both refined and functional, featuring poured concrete countertops, maple cabinetry, and high-end Bosch and Liebherr appliances. The bathrooms offer a spa-like experience with poured concrete counters, Duravit Starck fittings, and Hansgrohe fixtures, all finished with a clean, modern aesthetic. The connection to the outdoors is equally intentional. A private garden offers a quiet retreat below, while the rooftop terrace above captures 360-degree city and monument views, ideal for both relaxed mornings and evening gatherings. Ideally positioned just moments from the U Street Corridor and 14th Street, this home places the best of the city at your doorstep. Whole Foods is conveniently located directly across the street, with a full-service animal hospital just steps away, offering everyday ease for both residents and their pets. A vibrant mix of restaurants, bars, coffee shops, the iconic 9:30 Club, and the U Street Metro are all within easy reach.
