NEW PRICE PLUS WASHINGTON POST HOUSE OF THE WEEK! Motivated Sellers!!!!! This is the most beautiful home in Bloomingdale! Constructed in 1906 and fully, lovingly restored from top to bottom by the present owners, it is fair to say that no surface has been untouched by their attention to detail. The noble, antique brass lion door knocker and adjacent copper gas lantern set a welcoming tone. This residence exudes the flavor and character of a bygone era while ensuring every modern-day comfort is in place. The 20 Solar panels are a prime example. Amenities include Brazilian cherry hardwood floors and bespoke lighting throughout, Nest security system with camera and audio, intercom system on all floors, custom crown molding, plaster medallions made by artisans using original molds from historic DC area homes and craftsmen-turned and carved spindles and newel posts for the stairway. There is nickel plated door hardware throughout the home. The four fireplace mantels, one with lions head carved tigerwood, some with leaded glass or mirrored overmantels and others with ironwork insets and historic colored tile surrounds, date from the late Victorian era. Thats not all! Every mechanical system has been updated in the past two years and the roof replaced. A lower level two-bedroom apartment with front and rear access, was fully renovated in 2023, the gardens front and rear are lushly landscaped and feature eco-friendly drainage. The front stone retaining wall has been rebuilt and the exterior front stairs were newly constructed in 2024. This is a home for the ages that is ready for the future. Pristine condition. Two rear parking spaces. Welcome home to Bloomingdale!
