Property Description
Magnificent completely re-imagined end unit Victorian townhome in the heart of historic Georgetown is not to be missed; a rare jewel in the East Village. You will enjoy quintessential city life at your door step. Imagine weekends on the front porch, while sipping wine and observing city activities (to the envy of many visitors and neighbors). Host private parties in the rear enclosed green sanctuary. Direct gas connected grill for barbeque convenience and outdoor seating space around the fire-pit make it enjoyable all year round.
A remodel that was recently completed creates a modern space with a ubiquitous sense of balance, minimalist influences, emphasizing light, brightness and efficiency while preserving the original 1890 architectural features.
The main part of the home boasts three levels of living space: the upper level offers three private bedrooms each with ensuite bath all with designer tiling, natural stone, and frameless glass showers. The front and rear are primary bedrooms with double vanities - one featuring an original refurbished claw foot soaking tub and a gas fireplace in the front room. Cathedral Ceilings make the spaces light filled and open.
The stone steps of the front lead to the front porch (with skylights)and the separate lower level. Entering the front sitting area you are met with modern open spaces, nine-foot ceiling height, a gas fireplace, the floating staircase (an architectural wonder) and the dining and kitchen areas. A Poggenpohl professional kitchen that would make Gordon Ramsey swoon features induction surface cooktops with a built-in induction wok, all Miele dark stainless appliances, hidden panel Miele refrigerator and freezer and a full-size wine cooler.
Beyond the kitchen area leads to an office alcove, with original and intact refinished hardwood floors and transom doors, a half bath and a large family room featuring built in storage, floor to ceiling rear and transom windows above that fill the space with light and leads to the rear garden.
The separate lower-level apartment offers an additional office space, in-law or Nanny suite or income producing space. A spacious living room, one bedroom and an ensuite bath and a den with a half bathroom are ample additional living spaces. The kitchen boasts a Viking six burner stove and a Subzero refrigerator. Separate entrance and rear exit.
Prior century Victorian townhomes of this unique character rarely come by, and owing this home is an equally distinctive honor the next owner will enjoy.
