Description
Nearly 100 year old Italian stonemason-constructed home made of maintenance free two foot thick walls and indestructible slate roof has a sunrise view of the Masonic Temple. The third family to occupy the house (current owner) embarked on a painstaking renovation and addition in 2001 that took the home down to the bones, utilized state of the art first rate materials, design & architecture and amazingly preserved the 1920's charm & character when they completed this masterpiece in 2003. The delightful flow throughout the interior and including the balconies, patios, decks & backyard make this home perfect for daily living and parties. The current owner has hosted three weddings and receptions. There are tree-house like views from most rooms due to grand windows on three sides. Two bedrooms upstairs (the 2nd was used as an office by the current owner), one bedroom on main level and one bedroom on lower level. It would be fairly easy to make two more bedrooms from the spacious master suite upstairs - easy and inexpensive - by just undoing a couple of minor changes that were made to the original upstairs bedrooms when creating the master suite. Specifically, the original master bedroom was turned into the huge dressing room (by adding shelves, sink etc) and an original south facing bedroom into the office (by simply removing the door). With the current master bedroom that would be 3 bedrooms upstairs and two more, one each on the ground floor and main floor, respectively, if 5 were needed. This romantic home is in a prime location with convenience to the Metro, the Beltway, the Pentagon, Reagan National Airport, Old Town Alexandria and the new Amazon Headquarters.
