1724 Upshur St NW, Washington, DC 20011

The contemporary interpretation of the Colonial Revival house at 1724 Upshur Street, NW, was inspired by the modern farmhouse motif when it underwent recent renovations. Farmhouses of the 19th and 20th centuries were originally built in a variety of architectural styles, though the guiding principles behind their design were simplicity and functionality. This residence provides grace, charm, and style. Every facet of the interior has been modernized, with new HVAC, appliances, plumbing, electrical, lighting, windows, skylights, and doors. The house offers four finished floors. The main level features an open format illuminated by large windows on all four sides. The living room faces the large covered front porch and has a beautifully redesigned wood-burning fireplace. The kitchen provides a large island with space for seating, ample under-counter storage, and elegant white Carrara marble countertops. There is also the convenience of a half-bathroom on the main level. The second floor comprises a principal bedroom with en suite bathroom, as well two additional bedrooms, a second full bathroom, and laundry facilities. The third floor provides the fourth bedroom, third full bathroom, and office. The lower level offers a den with wet bar, a fifth bedroom, and fourth full bathroom. The property also has a private rear garden with seating area, mature trees, and a detached garage.
