A grand, impeccably restored international-style residence, set in esteemed Kalorama, among homes of former presidents, ambassadors, diplomats, and luminaries. The gorgeous brick facade and formal entrance garden lead to the extraordinary interior, boasting luminous original architectural details, stunning formal entertaining rooms and numerous thoughtful custom features. A large marble receiving foyer with mirrored doors leads to the grand staircase. The gorgeous living room features oversized windows and a fireplace with original mantle, exuding the timeless elegance of the home's past, refreshed by its thoughtful renovation. The sumptuous dining room with gleaming hardwood floors, impressive crystal chandelier, and built-in full bar allows for gracious formal entertaining. Lovely floor-to ceiling french doors lead to the wrap-around deck. The highly functional kitchen by Jennifer Gilmer features high-end stainless appliances and a wonderful marble breakfast bar for casual dining. A wall of french doors opens to the wrap-around deck, affording access and views to the brick courtyard. This enchanting patio with fountain, accented by custom ironwork decorative doors, is reminiscent of a secluded Paris garden. The upper floors feature a distinctive walnut paneled library, perfect to retire to after dinner. There are five beautifully appointed bedrooms, all with custom en-suite spa-inspired marble baths. The bedrooms are enhanced by custom walls of closets. The upper floor has a laundry room and the home is drenched in sunlight from the stained glass skylight, illuminating the staircase. The receiving foyer, with its elegant Avonazzetto-Brecciano marble powder room and cedar coat closet, is separated from the modern family/media room by the mirrored doors off the foyer. This area accesses the kitchen through the rear stairs and includes a suberb wine cellar. In the rear is a nanny/au-pair suite with full bath, also opening to the rear brick courtyard patio. The oversized two car garage with extra storage completes this extraordinary Kalorama residence, only six miles to Reagan National Airport and ten minutes to the White House.
