$5000 closing credit! Charming, Spacious, and One-of-a-Kind Historic Condo in the Music Hall Building ? This exceptional 2-level condo in the historic National Park Seminary offers a rare opportunity to live in a piece of history. Originally established in the late 19th century as a resort hotel, the National Park Seminary became a school for young women before transitioning into a U.S. Army facility during World War II. After the campus was decommissioned in 2004, it was meticulously redeveloped over the past decade, preserving its architectural grandeur while blending modern comforts.
Every room in this unique condo is filled with character and charm. From the impressive second-floor turret, complete with a private staircase and soaring ceilings, to the sun-drenched living spaces offering breathtaking tree-top views, this property truly stands out. The main floor features a primary suite nestled in the building?s iconic rounded turrets, where you can enjoy panoramic views through a curved wall of windows. The second bedroom, inspired by European design, boasts a large walk-in closet and elegant architectural details.
This condo is ideal for those who appreciate craftsmanship, historic charm, and timeless beauty. As part of the National Park Seminary, the property offers an opportunity to live in a historically significant building with all the modern amenities one could desire. The dog-friendly building includes a deeded garage parking space and is nestled in a community brimming with architectural interest. It?s also perfectly located, just minutes from two metro stations (Forest Glen and Silver Spring), Rock Creek Park, and a vibrant neighborhood filled with shops, dining, and outdoor recreation.
Enjoy the outdoors from your private terrace, perched like a treehouse above the serene glen, and take advantage of extra storage in the eaves. Additionally, buyers can benefit from a significant historic tax rebate after settlement, a bonus provided by the Maryland Historic Trust.
