    What's special

    Welcome to this epitome of historic elegance in this 1-bedroom, 1-bath condo at Somerset House, a historic 1917 landmark in Dupont Circle built by Harry Wardman. The building was completely gutted in 2014 while retaining all the details and charm of the original 1917 building! From the moment you enter, you’ll appreciate how thoughtfully this home has been fully remodeled. The open-concept living and dining area is bright and welcoming and the high ceilings, original moldings and hardwood floors are spectacular. The sleek, modern kitchen boasts contemporary cabinetry, a Bertazzoni range, a Fisher and Paykel refrigerator, wine fridge and marble countertops. The building includes a full-time concierge, a fitness center, a wine/party room, and a bike room. Pet-friendly and located near Dupont Circle and Logan Circle’s shops, conveniences and restaurants, this condo is an ideal urban oasis.
