**Open Saturday April 4th from 1-3** Nestled among the iconic “Six Sisters” in Dupont Circle, this distinguished circa-1890 residence offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Washington’s architectural history. Located within the coveted 16th Street Historic District, the home enjoys picturesque views of the Somerset House and the Scottish Rite Temple, blending timeless elegance with the historic charm of the neighborhood. This three-bedroom, two-bath home showcases exquisite original details, including a graceful center hall with a serpentine staircase—positioned within a dramatic light shaft that allows natural light to cascade through all three levels. Thoughtfully updated, the home seamlessly marries historic character with modern sensibilities. The chef’s kitchen is outfitted with a JennAir commercial-grade appliance package, featuring dual-fuel cooking, a kettle faucet, soapstone countertops, and handcrafted subway tile by a local artisan. Farrow & Ball wall coverings, Stark carpeting, and Waterworks fixtures add refined finishes throughout. The flexible floor plan includes a third bedroom currently styled as a den, offering versatility for today’s lifestyle. The entire third floor is dedicated to a serene primary suite retreat, complete with a steam shower and private terrace draped in wisteria—an idyllic setting for relaxation. Additional outdoor spaces are equally inviting, with a front flagstone patio framed by mature azalea and hydrangeas, and a rear yard featuring a flagstone patio with historic inlaid brick and off-street parking for one car. Additional highlights include a full basement with abundant storage space, a dual-zone HVAC system with built-in air purification, and high-performance Loewen StormForce laminated windows designed to enhance comfort by reducing exterior noise.
