Step into the heart of historic Kalorama and experience timeless Beaux-Arts elegance at California Court, a celebrated early 20th-century landmark featured in Washington's prestigious Best Addresses. Arriving at 2153 California Street NW, a serene, landscaped courtyard complete with a central fountain and covered porch sets a tranquil, inviting tone. The grand architectural legacy continues inside, where soaring 11.5-foot ceilings, original mosaic tile floors, sweeping marble staircases, private marble-walled corridors, and classic cast-iron columns recall an era of unmatched craftsmanship. Crossing the threshold into the grand foyer of Residence #502, the home's impressive scale and refined character are immediately felt. Uniquely formed by combining two original units, this residence boasts a rare and remarkably flexible layout featuring one lavish bedroom suite and two full bathrooms-offering a level of comfort, spatial freedom, and versatility seldom encountered in urban one-bedroom living. The centerpiece of the home is an expansive living area bathed in luminous natural light from oversized windows that frame breathtaking views of Washington's iconic monuments. Deep-set window seating creates a picturesque nook for a formal dining area or a sun-drenched spot to unwind with a book, while the adjacent, well-appointed kitchen is perfectly situated for effortless hosting and everyday life. Thoughtfully designed with privacy and convenience in mind, the residence offers a dedicated guest bathroom off the main living space, complete with a deep jetted soaking tub for ultimate relaxation. The bedroom serves as a true sanctuary, featuring a private ensuite bath and a sprawling walk-in closet that discreetly houses the in-unit washer and dryer. Complete with dedicated bike storage and two additional private storage units, this exceptional condo seamlessly pairs historic architectural splendor with the modern essentials of luxury city living in D.C.'s most coveted enclave.
