    What's special

    Steeped in history, this remarkable home was originally designed by T.J. Collins, the renowned architect celebrated for his Richardsonian Romanesque buildings. Commissioned by the Noyes family—founders of the Associated Press and later owners of the Washington Star—the residence has long stood as a symbol of legacy and influence. In a later chapter of its story, the home passed into the hands of the lead architect of Resurrection City, who left his own mark before selling it to the current owners. Today, the space has been thoughtfully reimagined to reflect the lifestyle and design sensibilities of 2025, blending timeless architectural craftsmanship with modern comfort and innovation. Offered for the first time in over 50 years, this extraordinary 21-foot-wide Gothic Revival row home, built in 1891, spans multiple levels and showcases a masterful blend of historic character and modern design. Original architectural details—including a fully restored staircase and fireplace mantel—are thoughtfully preserved and paired with curated contemporary finishes for a truly timeless living experience. Enter into a grand center hall gallery with a curved staircase that sets the tone for the home’s elegant scale and flow. The versatile floor plan features a formal salon ideal for entertaining, a lounge-style kitchen area, and a separate south-facing dining room that comfortably seats ten. The chef’s kitchen is a true showpiece, featuring a 48" dual-fuel AGA range with three ovens, a full Thermador appliance suite, integrated stone sinks throughout, Brizo plumbing fixtures, and custom herringbone floors. The attention to detail continues with bespoke art moldings that elevate each room. The upper levels host two distinct primary suites. The expansive main suite offers nearly 500 square feet, including a bright sitting room with southern exposure. The secondary suite features its own private terrace with views of the iconic Scottish Rite House of the Temple. Two additional bedrooms, a home office, and a laundry room—with a deep wash basin—complete the upper floors. The lower level includes a welcoming family room, powder room, and a covered bluestone porch. A separate guest suite provides flexibility for visitors or can serve as a catering and staging space for large-scale entertaining. Step outside to a tranquil rear patio, where original inlaid brick and over 30 years of mature ivy create a lush, private retreat. A rare bonus: private two-car parking at the rear of the property, completely hidden from view—an exceptionally rare feature in Dupont Circle. Just a 10-minute walk to both Dupont Circle and Logan Circle, 5 minutes to the vibrant intersection of 17th Street and Q Street NW, and located within the Ross Elementary school boundary This is a home that defies comparison—an architectural jewel with substance, soul, and style.
