Designed by the renowned Washington architecture firm Hornblower & Marshall that built the Natural History Museum, this expansive four-level Grand Dame Victorian is a rare opportunity to own a piece of D.C.’s architectural and cultural history. Located at 1714 13th St NW, just one block from the bustling 14th Street in coveted Logan Circle, this 5 bedroom, 3.5 bathroom end-unit residence basks in East, West, and Southern sun-exposure, seamlessly blends historic craftsmanship, abundant space, and modern living in an unbeatable location. From its striking rectilinear forms and intricate basket-weave brickwork accentuating its exterior façade to the exquisite moldings, soaring ceilings, period mantelpieces, original wood shudders and heart pine floors beyond its vestibule, the residence’s interior historic touches radiate timeless elegance. The main level boasts a gracious living room and a sun-drenched formal dining room, illuminated by large windows with Western and Southern exposures. Separated by pocket doors, each room features its own decorative fireplace, creating an inviting setting for gatherings of any size. A light-filled kitchen beyond opens to a private patio providing an urban oasis in the heart of the city. The patio gate opens to 2 parking spaces on its other side. A convenient wet bar and powder room completes this level. The upper levels offer an abundance of space and flexibility. The primary bedroom features a serene sanctuary with a sitting area and walk-in closet. Another well-appointed bedroom, walk-in closet, and full bath completes this floor. The top floor provides a unique and flexible layout, with a bedroom with fireplace and a kitchenette, ideal for a private suite, den, or family room, plus a second bedroom, a full bath, and laundry. The lower-level English basement provides exceptional additional living space, complete with a large living room, kitchen, bedroom, walk-in closet, full bath, and a second laundry—ideal for guests, or an au pair suite. The home has recently been repointed and the retaining wall re-built; an investment of over $100K! With two coveted parking spaces, an unbeatable location in one of DC’s most sought-after neighborhoods, and a rare combination of space, functionality, and architectural grandeur, this home is truly a standout in Logan Circle. Just steps from D.C.’s best restaurants, shops, and cultural destinations, yet tucked away on a picturesque street, this residence offers the perfect blend of historic elegance and modern city living. **Fireplace flames digitally added for aesthetic, but not representational of working order**
