5500 Broad Branch Rd NW, Washington, DC 20015

NEW LISTING - We take pride in presenting for the first time since its construction, a home that is the essence of Modern. Designed and built in 1975 by the owner architect Pierre Paul Childs , Architectural Digest proclaimed, ~He has created a graceful tower, poised among tall trees on the narrow corner site.~ The Washington Star called the house, ~~a fine example of the melding of form and function.~ Childs himself stated, ~I combined strong discipline with a bit of whimsy.~ Photos of furnished rooms are examples of virtual staging. Public record indicates house square footage over over 7000 square feet which is incorrect and explains the very high tax assessment. Actual square footage is roughly 3300 which is all above grade. Don't miss the rooftop terrace with fantastic views including the Washington Cathedral and the top of the Washington Monument.
