Property Description

Tucked away on a quiet dead-end street directly across from Rock Creek Park, this beautifully updated home offers a rare blend of privacy, natural beauty, and modern efficiency. Thoughtfully renovated by the current owner to honor the home's Mid-Century Modern roots, it draws inspiration from Frank Lloyd Wright and Japanese design principles that emphasize natural materials, clean lines, and a seamless connection between the indoors and outdoors. Filled with natural light from seven skylights, the home showcases refinished original white oak floors, a beautifully renovated kitchen with cherry cabinetry and leathered soapstone countertops, thoughtfully designed living spaces, and a sunroom retreat anchored by a Jotul wood stove. Professionally landscaped, low-maintenance grounds extend the living space outdoors with multiple stone patios, a pergola, and exceptional privacy-perfect for entertaining or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The spacious primary suite features a custom closet and a spa-inspired bath with heated floors, while the additional updated baths reflect the same attention to quality found throughout. Energy-conscious buyers will appreciate the fully owned 13.12 kW solar array installed in 2024, providing significantly reduced electric costs with no lease or financing obligations. Additional highlights include a whole-house water treatment system and numerous thoughtful improvements that make this home truly move-in ready. Surrounded by the natural beauty of Rock Creek Park, yet just minutes from downtown DC, neighborhood shopping and dining, and major commuter routes, this exceptional home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy a peaceful, park-side setting without sacrificing convenience.
