Positioned on a prominent corner lot and framed by exceptional custom stone masonry, this home showcases timeless architectural character, thoughtful craftsmanship, and details rarely found in today's construction. From the moment you arrive, the home's striking curb appeal is evident.

The finished walkout basement expands the home's living space with a large open recreation area designed for entertaining, relaxing, or gathering with family and friends. A built in bar is positioned toward the rear of the space, creating the perfect setup for hosting while maintaining the flexibility of the room itself. The lower level also includes a half bathroom, laundry area, multiple storage and utility rooms, and direct access to the attached garage. Outside, the elevated corner lot provides an impressive amount of usable outdoor space rarely found in the city. The spacious yard offers plenty of room for recreation, gardening, pets, or future outdoor enhancements, while the surrounding stonework creates a sense of privacy and architectural distinction that sets this property apart. Located in the highly desirable Hillcrest neighborhood, residents enjoy tree lined streets, sidewalks, parks, and convenient access to Capitol Hill, Downtown Washington, major commuter routes, shopping, dining, and public transportation.
