Charming Kalorama Triangle Victorian Penthouse | 2BR/1BA | Treehouse Views | In-Unit Laundry
Discover a special city retreat in this gorgeous 1900 Victorian penthouse on coveted Mintwood Place in the heart of Kalorama Triangle. Affectionately described as a treehouse penthouse, this charming home blends historic character, thoughtful modern updates, and peaceful treetop views just moments from the vibrant energy of Adams Morgan.
Original heart pine floors, beautiful millwork, and classic five-panel doors preserve the home's architectural charm, while large windows and a skylight fill the space with natural light. An unusual double hallway and staircase configuration creates an airy, wide-open feel rarely found in DC rowhouses. This configuration also provides excellent separation between living and sleeping areas, keeping kitchen and living room activity comfortably removed from the bedrooms.
The updated kitchen opens to the living and dining areas and features stainless steel appliances, gas cooking, quartz countertops, a breakfast bar, and ample storage. Two bright, generously sized bedrooms offer flexibility for guests, a home office, workout space, or cozy den. An updated bathroom, central A/C, in-unit washer and dryer, and additional basement storage add everyday convenience. Recent improvements include a new HVAC system in 2025, in-unit washer and dryer in 2024, and kitchen appliances in 2022.
A mature street tree provides privacy at the front, while tranquil views of park-like trees at the rear offer a peaceful retreat without the usual distractions of alley traffic, car noise, or headlights. The building's enclosed vestibule helps keep packages secure and protected from the elements.
The location is equally exceptional. The 1800 block of Mintwood Place is one of Kalorama Triangle's most coveted residential settings a quiet, tree-lined street just minutes from the city's best dining, shopping, and cultural destinations. The extra-wide, low-traffic one-way street makes passenger drop-offs and delivery pickups especially convenient.
Just one block away, 18th Street offers neighborhood favorites such as Lapis, The Diner, and Tryst, plus coffee shops, gyms, and everyday conveniences. Yes! Organic Market and Ace Hardware are nearby for easy errands. Kalorama Park is steps away, and Rock Creek Park's extensive trail network is accessible via Walter Pierce Park. Nearby Metrobus service and the Dupont Circle and Woodley Park Metro stations make commuting and exploring Washington effortless.
Enjoy the best of both worlds: a charming, tranquil treehouse retreat on a coveted residential street, with the energy of Adams Morgan and the best of DC just around the corner.
