2640 Woodley Pl NW, Washington, DC 20008

Perched atop a quiet stretch of tree-lined Woodley Place in Woodley Park is a sturdy, red brick townhome blending traditional architecture with modern amenities. A fine example of classic Washingtonian architecture with its bay windows and covered porch, it radiates tradition and solidity. Inside, the reception area gives way to a completely renovated floor plan boasting five full bedrooms across 4,150 spacious square feet. Through a historic oak archway, new hardwood flooring throughout establishes a seamless cohesion. Intricate millwork harkens back to a period of meticulous handcrafted detail no longer seen in today’s construction. Off of the foyer, the formal living room is graciously proportioned, ethereal with natural light pouring in, and anchored by a grand fireplace. The connecting formal dining room is equally commodious, its sumptuous walnut wainscoting setting a warm old-world ambiance. Direct access to the rear terrace through double glass doors and a formal powder room are close by. Immediately adjacent is the completely modernized kitchen, with marble flooring, granite countertops, white shaker cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances. On the second level, solid walnut doors open into two spacious ensuite bedrooms. The first one features a spacious marble bathroom, closet area, and private balcony overlooking the front lawn, while the second is a luxurious primary suite with a private sitting room. Off of the bedroom is a walk through dressing area and tranquil sky-lit bath with double marble vanities. A convenient laundry room completes this level. At the top of the grand staircase, natural light streams in from the oversized skylight above while three additional spacious bedrooms share two fully renovated baths. The lower level is its own self-sufficient residence and an incoming-generating opportunity. It boasts a full modern kitchen and bedroom suite, with private front and rear access. Out back, the private deck descends to a serene, spacious terrace ideal for outdoor entertaining. There are two secure parking spaces — a true rarity in the city. Located a mere block to shops, restaurants, and the metro, the home is never more than a few minutes from the finest amenities the city has to offer. Blending old-world charm with modern finishes within a supremely usable package in a gorgeous, incomparable location, 2640 Woodley Place NW is arguably the perfect townhome.
