Located on a sought-after block in Kalorama, this 1917 Neo-Classical detached residence features an abundance of architectural details and exquisite moldings combined with modern upgrades. An oversized transom above the front door and a floor-to-ceiling side window fills the foyer with natural light. Glass French doors open to the reception hall that has a gas fireplace, ten and a half foot ceilings, and a grand archway inspired by the entrance at George Mason's Gunston Hall. The home's original architect, James A. Cooper, looked to colonial antecedents for inspiration; the residence is filled with layered moldings, tray ceilings, columns and classical entablature. It was recently renovated by prominent New York architect James Mohn. The formal living room is sited at the front of the house with a gas fireplace, and the dining room is well proportioned for grand entertaining with a wide gas fireplace, arched doorway, and three windows. The kitchen connects to the dining room through two sets of folding doors, allowing complete privacy. It features heated slate floors, two sinks, a Viking six burner range, Viking wine cooler, double Sub-Zero refrigerator with four freezer drawers, Viking double oven, and an island with a breakfast bar. There is a breakfast area off of the kitchen that is open to the family room, which is filled with light from three walls of south facing windows overlooking the garden. The private, brick-walled garden has a heated lap pool with flagstone surround, ornamental fountain, and a side garden. The property is fully fenced and gated. The grand staircase leads up to the second level by way of a landing with a large Palladian window and modern white hanging chandelier. The master suite is south facing, complete with a balcony, sitting room with built-ins, and a walk-in closet with a coffee bar and refrigerator. The master bath features heated tile floors, dual Deca vanities, a contemporary free-standing soaking tub, and a separate room for the commode and frameless glass shower with rain shower head and body jets. The second level library has a wide gas fireplace and opens to a study that has another fireplace. There is a hall closet and bath with a soaking tub and heated floors. The third level has high ceilings, four bedrooms, a bath with heated floors and a spacious tub/shower combination, a bath with a frameless glass shower, and a large upper level laundry room with a cedar closet, sink, and storage built-ins. There is a walk-up attic with ample room for storage that could be finished into more living space. The lower level has a family room, second laundry room, storage, wine cellar, and an in-law suite with a bath and kitchen. The home has an alarm system, is wired for sound, has all new electrical and lighting, and has three-car gated tandem parking.
