DESCRIPTION
Welcome to this superb Spanish Revival townhome on a grand, yet quiet, tree-lined street in the heart of the Kalorama Triangle Historic District. Developed by Harry Wardman and influenced in its design by the early 20th-century Arts and Crafts movement, this home combines carefully preserved period detail with comfortable modern amenities. The lush and nearly private urban front yard, the large shaded porch with its Mediterranean arches, and the sunny, expansive deck off the master bedroom all invite you to enjoy the outdoors -- while all the attractions of vibrant city living are just a couple of blocks away.
The prestigious historic neighborhood with its architectural beauty and elegance is surrounded by the dining, shopping and cultural facilities of the Dupont Circle, Woodley Park, and Adams Morgan neighborhoods, with their hundreds of restaurants, stores, theaters and clubs. The Woodley Park Red Line Metro station is within comfortable walking distance (0.4 miles), as are Rock Creek Park, local playgrounds, and the acclaimed Oyster Bilingual Public School.
