Welcome to this 1939 Art Deco brick home set in a graciously proportioned 10,000+ sq ft garden, exuding the air of modernization and luxury of the Jazz Age in which it was designed and built with attention to streamlined geometrically shaped forms and the bold colors of that era refurbished to suit contemporary living in a serene setting so close to all the amenities of urban village living. Three of its 4 vistas present a sense of horizon and treed skyline with easy access to both Rock Creek park and the Van Ness metro . Its separate alley accessed two car brick garage (w/ADU potential) leaves plenty of space for a pool, putting green, croquet or badminton leisure enjoyment.. All four stories are above ground facing this garden oasis with a covered and open terrace on the lower level, a northern sun drenched all year round solarium room on the main level and sky lit 4th floor bonus room. The camera icon includes floor plans both measured and visual for your preview. Disclosure documents and seller preferences are available by contacting the listing agents.
