Property Description
This DC home combines the elegant proportions of classic architecture with the aesthetics required for contemporary living in our Nations Capital. Built in the mid-1920s by August Bussard, the homes extraordinary stone construction has been faithfully maintained. Sited at the top of a promontory, an attractively landscaped front yard, accented with original stone work, includes a sweeping drive to the front entrance. Its stately exterior reveals a warm interior the moment one enters the foyer. Light streams from multiple leaded glass windows, filling rooms with a refined glow. Timeless. A grand staircase, soaring ceilings, original mill work, and polished floors nod to tradition. Well-proportioned rooms have been thoughtfully updated for living a DC lifestyle. The gourmet kitchen and family room combine comfort with modern amenities such as a chefs stove, island with seating, fireplace, and ample storage. The dining room invites visions of leisurely dinners where spaciousness is enhanced by the beautifully carved Italian fireplace. Off the dining and kitchen areas, one finds a delightful stained-glass sunroom. There are tastefully updated second floor bedrooms and baths. The top floor offers a private suite perfect for anyone seeking quiet quarters. The ground floor has a fully autonomous living unit, useful for a variety of purposes. Surrounded by mature trees, the outdoor living space is nestled in a multi-tiered backyard with a fire pit and ample seating space. Picnics, grilling, cozy evenings, leaf peeping in fall are among its many possibilities. The home is situated on a generous 16,000 sq. ft. (one-third acre) lot. A garage is included, as well as private outdoor parking space and ample street parking.
