Property Description
Exceptional newer seven bedroom, six and a half bath Craftsman home located in the heart of Cleveland Park. While this home looks historic, it was built in 1999 and renovated in 2015. The home blends traditional elegance alongside modern convenience throughout the impressive 5990 square feet on four levels. Grand architectural finishes fill the home. With beautiful hardwood flooring, gorgeous wood millwork, high ceilings, and a thoughtful paint pallet, this home is truly one of a kind.
The exquisiteness of this home is clear as soon as you walk up the front steps. Through the front door you are greeted by the dreamlike foyer. The millwork throughout this grand room is spectacular. There are also two large closets and a long built-in storage bench. To the left is a sophisticated living room with additional cherry wood built-ins, a stunning tiled fireplace and access to the dining room and the front porch. The spacious dining room includes more built-ins and a coffered ceiling.
From the dining room and family room, you access the jaw droppingly beautiful kitchen. This kitchen features three different work spaces, the main counters, a large island and a butler’s pantry each with a different counter, two are stone and one is copper. The high-end stainless steel appliances will certainly satisfy any chef. The long island offers a second sink and space for friends to sit as you entertain. The butler's pantry offers more storage and an additional refrigerator. The extraordinariness of this space continues with a built in banquette which can comfortably seat at least six people. Beyond the banquette is a family room with a cleverly built in television, more built-ins and space to entertain. From both the back rooms, kitchen and family room, it is easy to access the back deck for entertaining and the rear yard which is perfect for outdoor activities. Additionally on this level, there are incredibly high ceilings, cherry hardwood floors and a powder room.
On the main bedroom level, there is a comfortable landing and a laundry room that will make doing a laundry a breeze. There are two spacious bedrooms in the back, both with ensuite bathrooms. The owner’s suite offers a walk-in closet and a large marble bathroom with double vanity, separate tub and shower. A door that can be closed or left open separates these two bedrooms from the others on this level, allowing for a transformation of this space into a grander owner’s suite. At the front end of this level are two more large bedrooms and another full bathroom. This entire level has hardwood floors.
The third level offers incredibly high ceilings and space for a very large office and additional bedroom. There was a sliding wall which separated the bedroom space from the rest of the attic level; it can be reinstalled if the buyer prefers to have it. There is also another full bath on the level and four large closets. Enjoy views of your yard from the wonderful balcony and green roof plots.
The lower level of the home is surprisingly spacious. It includes two more bedrooms (one could be a fantastic gym), one with an en-suite marble bath. Another full bath is in the hallway. There is also a game/playroom, wine closet, another walk-in closet and an incredible light-filled recreation room with access to the backyard. The recreation room and back bedroom have been soundproofed from the rest of the home.
Add to this, Sonos system with individually controlled rooms, ceiling speakers, and surround sound. All of this can be found in Cleveland Park which offers many desirable schools, both public and private. There is a community pool and a new city outdoor pool. Just a couple blocks to a grocery store, neighborhood favorite restaurants, Barcelona, Silver and Raku. Additionally there are a number of boutique stores. In the other direction, a few more blocks away, is the Cleveland Park Metro, Streets Market, more restaurants and small shops.
