A remarkable reincarnation of an already precious diamond that awaits fine entertaining and family gatherings. With several years of recent major renovations, this East Village residence is pure elegance, distinguished historical and architectural provenance, and awash in modern conveniences. Whether you enter by passing through the dreamy blue front door with its antique brass lock and fixtures and marble foyer or you park in one of your three spaces and stroll from the automatic back gate to the walkways lined with perennials and annuals, passing the sumptuous lawn bordered by its bounty of more flowers, blooming trees and bushes to the slate patio with its fountain that takes several waterfalls down the wall into a tempting tile-lined pond, one cannot help but stop and sigh and say “I’m home.”
This stunning semi-detached property, once two homes with the first building completed in 1801, has a superior Georgetown location. With its 6,748 square-foot lot, spanning the full block between 28th and 29th Streets, it is a unique piece of property with immeasurable privacy. Sometimes it is difficult believing you are in a celebrated cosmopolitan neighborhood because of the back garden oasis - an oasis with an automatic irrigation system and subtle lighting and, if you must, the property has an easement for a pool.
Renovations have occurred twice in the last few years with the last just completed. Because there were two divided HVAC systems still serving the home, a decision was made to combine them into new high efficiency forced air systems which required adjustments and demolition throughout much of the interior. Not only were the changes made providing the premium in high-end technology but also a reason to incorporate, introduce and enrich the home with new life and beautification while still maintaining the character of Georgetown and balancing modern amenities and upgrades.
The public rooms within this over 5,300 square foot residence form a masterpiece of sunlight and flow. The nine-foot-ceiling living room with balcony and fireplace provides over 360 square feet of entertaining space and is the intro to four spectacular rooms. The library or family room, depending on your preference, has two walls of built-ins, a fireplace, and double pane glass French doors to the gardens. The adjoining dining room is a glamorous standout feature which flows into the spacious double pane glass sunroom where you can listen to the tinkling of the fountain and feel as if you are outdoors no matter the season. The kitchen is all new, sleek, and fixed with the highest end of German technology from Seimatic cabinetry and Gaggenau appliances. The residence has seven bedrooms, some of which have the advantage of switching into offices or an exercise room, five bathrooms, two powder rooms, and laundry. An impressive study with its original stone fireplace and which greets you as you enter can also be used as an office or family room. And finally, there are scores of special smaller touches added, to make this property the ultimate in Georgetown.
