A very special home in the heart of Bloomingdale. This massive end-unit 1920 rowhome underwent a total gut renovation by Acanthus architects (completed in 2015), has been lovingly maintained with great attention to detail, and includes a fully separate basement unit along with tons of great features. The main home boasts 3 spacious levels, 3 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, hardwood floors, lots of natural light through large windows & 3 exposures, LED Lutron light fixtures, and fabulous exposed brick on the front and interior walls. Super high ceilings and open layout make the main level feel voluminous, with plenty of space for living, dining and entertaining. Gorgeous modern kitchen with Kohler Carbon faucet, Tambour sliding aluminum doors, Viking range & hood, Subzero wine cooler, Samsung master chef fridge, and large kitchen island. The dramatic open floating staircase leads to the upper levels, and was crafted using the repurposed original American chestnut joists of the home. Lots of bedroom and closet space, plus luxury spa-style custom baths. Home is completely wired with CAT5/6, with a home automation center in primary bedroom for easy maintenance access, ethernet wire in every ceiling for access points, and in-wall plates for home automation, including 2 audio-visual rooms and 10 audio zones throughout the home. The sunny 3rd floor landing features motorized skylights by Velox and a wet bar, and leads to the fantastic rooftop deck with sweeping city views - perfect for your next outdoor gathering. 2 additional porches, a rear lower patio, and a whimsical partially-covered front turret deck provide endless outdoor enjoyment. The English basement was dug out and fully renovated, includes 2 bedrooms & 2 full baths, heated floors, and makes for an ideal rental opportunity (previous owners ran a very successful AirBnB). Great open living space & updated kitchen with breakfast bar. Full-length windows, lots of light exposure and high ceilings truly make you feel fully above ground. Add in convenient rear parking, and this home really has it all! Superb LeDroit Park location. Quaint, quiet street, just off bustling U Street corridor. 0.7mi to Shaw Metro and Landmark Theatre Atlantic Plumbing Cinema.
