Nearly 2,400 sq ft on the top floor with truly jaw-dropping panoramic views — the Cathedral in full, iconic profile, the sweeping city skyline, and the Potomac River beyond. Originally two separate two-bedroom co-op units, now seamlessly combined into a spacious 2BR + Den layout. One of only seven residences on the top floor. Well-designed, renovated kitchen with a center island and direct Cathedral views. Living and dining rooms open to a double-length balcony. Private primary wing with sitting room and balcony access, plus two renovated baths (one with shower, one with tub). Den with balcony access. At the other end of the apartment is a large corner bedroom with renovated full bath and an office/den, and a half bath. In-unit laundry. Newly refinished hardwood floors an freshly painted throughout. Co-op fee includes utilities (excluding cable/internet), taxes, reserves, and an over sized private storage room. Free outdoor parking; garage available. Set on 15 park-like acres shared with The Westchester. Rare combination of scale, top-floor privacy, and unforgettable views from nearly every room. A 20% minimum down payment is required. Lenders must have a recognition agreement with the cooperative. This residence is currently configured as two legally separate two-bedroom cooperative units that have been seamlessly combined. The units may be purchased separately; however, any future physical re-separation would be subject to cooperative board approval and compliance with building requirements.
