Overview

A true Columbia Heights "Grand Dame," this rare and commanding 1890 semi-detached residence offers a level of scale and structural integrity seldom found in the city. Defined by an uncommonly wide and deep footprint, the home greets you with a gracious wrap-around porch that hints at the historic elegance within. Inside, the entry foyer showcases intricate tilework, transitioning into a grand central hall that anchors the main level. The living room is a study in architectural warmth, featuring soaring ceilings and period-correct details that evoke a sense of timeless sophistication.

The heart of the home is revealed through original pocket doors, which open to a banquet-sized dining room designed for large-scale entertaining. Culinary enthusiasts will gravitate toward the fully renovated chef’s kitchen, a bright and airy space finished with sleek quartz countertops and a generous reach-in pantry. Beyond the kitchen, the outdoor transition is seamless: an elevated deck leads down to a secluded, enchanting lounge area, perfect for alfresco evenings.

The second level is home to a serene primary bathed in natural light from oversized windows, complemented by ample closet space and two additional well-proportioned bedrooms and a full bathroom. The top floor serves as a versatile, sun-drenched retreat—ideal for a sophisticated home office or an expansive secondary suite. Adding further utility, the fully finished lower level provides a refined guest suite with three distinct spaces, a kitchenette, and a full bath. Positioned near the Petworth Metro, this property is a masterful blend of historic character and modern, design-forward luxury.
