About This Property

Back on market,  This pool and garden could be yours this summer.  Iconic 1920s  house is really like no other in the Palisades with sweeping panoramic views facing west toward the Potomac River.  The stately 5BR, 4.5  bath brick home built in 1923 is a stunning four-story residence with a flagstone patio and pool, 1 BR 1 Bath guest house and large 3 car garage. From the moment you step inside, you'll be transported back to the elegance of the early 20th century.  High ceilings, large  bay windows, hardwood floors, gas fireplace, and huge wrap around porch are just some of the stunning features.

You enter a gracious entry foyer and living room with fireplace, gorgeous view out the large windows.  The dining room is nice size, with large bay window, connected to the kitchen, mud room with powder room.  Upstairs are three nice size bedrooms.  The primary bedroom also has large bay window, a sitting porch and large spa bathroom with tub, shower and double sinks.  The third floor has a sitting room, with a bedroom on either side, one bath with tub.

The house sits up high with great vistas on the corner of Potomac Avenue and Cathedral.  The very large 2 door, 3  car garage is underneath the main level, the basement is on grade along Cathedral.  This fabulous garage provides ample space for your vehicles and any other equipment or storage needs you may have. Next to the garage, the unfinished space is cavernous.  One could imagine a wine cellar, fitness studio, office, family hang out room.
