On the market for the first time ever, this multi-family contemporary gem provides for the perfect oasis of quiet and peace in the heart of Dupont. Built in 1977 and designed by architect John Sullivan, this home boasts 3 income-generating apartments in addition to the owner’s 3BR 2.5BA townhome. The main house is an exquisite example of light-filled open concept with soaring ceilings & skylights, and has been newly updated to modern tastes. Refinished original hardwood floors, fantastic exposed brick walls, and fresh paint throughout. The entry level is an entertainer’s dream, complete with flowing living and dining spaces, and culminating with dramatic cathedral ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows. Refreshed and spacious eat-in kitchen with new counters, custom backsplash and newly painted cabinetry. A lofty 3-level floating staircase leads up to the library, which overlooks the living room and includes large swathes of built-in shelves awaiting your books and treasures. The upper levels also host 3 bright and spacious bedrooms (including 2 potential primary suites), and two ensuite baths upgraded with new counters and custom tile. This home’s ample outdoor spaces are truly special, and include a central courtyard & garden, front brick patio, and expansive rooftop deck. The rear garden is enveloped by high walls covered with Wisteria & Hydrangea. The massive Bradford Pear tree’s shade creates a feeling of protection and softness in the backyard. Meanwhile the rooftop deck is sunny and open while still maintaining privacy, and is an ideal spot for the urban gardener in you. This space could also be converted into a 4th bedroom!

Complementing the primary residence are 3 apartments, each 1BR 1BA and approximately 900SF in size. 2 of the 3 units have been substantially renovated within the past 3 years. Top floor apartment of the carriage house features cathedral ceilings and a brick fireplace. For the savvy investor, economic upside possibilities abound with so many spaces! Traditional rentals, tons of AirB&B opportunities, perhaps convert the garages into a 5th unit, or even break the property into condos.

The home includes tons of parking (7 total spaces, including a storage area converted from a garage space), 2 additional storage closets off the garage space, and a very functional rear alley with easy access to R and S Streets. Ideally located in the heart of vibrant Dupont Circle. Explore cafes, restaurants and bars on 18th St, U St and 14th St. 1 block to Mint Gym. Enjoy the weekend Farmer’s market on Columbia Rd and Dupont Circle. Transit oriented location with Metro buses on 18th Street and Metro stations nearby (0.7mile to Dupont and U St/Cardozo).
