Perched on the top floor of a distinguished corner building just moments from the White House, this rare penthouse co-op offers timeless sophistication and enduring architectural character in one of Washington, D.C.’s most iconic neighborhoods. The stately circular drive and dramatic wrought iron door herald the elegance within: a refined lobby with black-and-white tile flooring and weekday concierge service. The building blends classic residential elegance with mixed-use convenience, offering a uniquely metropolitan lifestyle. Inside, the 2 bedroom, 2 bath home spanning nearly 1,700 SF is rich with original details—high ceilings, plaster ceiling moldings, solid wood doors, and warm hardwood floors throughout. The expansive layout includes a formal dining room framed by graceful columns, a sunlit master suite with a bay window and walk-in closet, and thoughtfully appointed window treatments that elevate each space. The second bedroom includes French doors to a charming balcony for private enjoyment of fresh breezes. The modern stainless gourmet kitchen impresses with top-of-the-line appliances, including a Viking 4-burner range with grill and griddle, a Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer, and a private back entrance with stair access for added functionality. This elegant residence is served by two elevators and enjoys exceptionally low maintenance. While there is no on-site parking, the unbeatable location places world-class dining, culture, and transit within easy reach. A true Washington classic, offering history, elegance, and cosmopolitan convenience in equal measure.
