Description
Perfectly positioned on a quiet street in the heart of the Palisades, this all-brick center hall colonial offers a rare combination of privacy, scale, and natural beauty. Designed by award-winning architect David C. Mitchell, the residence is thoughtfully sited alongside U.S. Park Service land, with views toward the Potomac River and the C&O Canal, and direct access to Battery Kemble Park and the Palisades Trolley Trail.
Offering nearly 4,500 square feet of finished living space, the home is defined by its impeccable construction quality and timeless finishes. Warm hardwood floors, custom millwork, high ceilings, and expansive windows fill the interiors with natural light while framing serene, wooded vistas throughout.
The main level is both elegant and functional, anchored by a gracious center hall. A cherry wood-paneled library, which can also be used as a den, features a wood-burning fireplace and creates a warm, inviting retreat, while the formal dining room is well-proportioned for both intimate gatherings and larger-scale entertaining. The rear of the home opens to a well-appointed kitchen featuring a Viking range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, generous island, abundant cabinetry, and a walk-in pantry, seamlessly connecting to the family room and overlooking the surrounding landscape. A full bath on this level adds flexibility for guests or everyday living.
The upper level features three spacious bedrooms, including a private primary suite with dual exposures and tranquil views. The suite offers two walk-in closets and a well-appointed bath, creating a comfortable and refined retreat. Two additional bedrooms, each with excellent light and ample closet space, are served by a large hall bath.
The lower level adds exceptional versatility, with a fourth bedroom and full bath, and a spacious recreation room distinguished by its ceiling height and natural light, with expansive windows that capture beautiful, unobstructed views. The space opens directly to a secluded patio, creating an easy connection to the outdoors. Additional storage and a dedicated laundry room are thoughtfully incorporated on this level.
An oversized, heated two-car garage with built-in shelving and workspace completes the offering.
Set within a uniquely private, park-like setting, this residence offers immediate access to trails and green space, and is within walking distance of the Palisades' celebrated restaurants, while remaining moments from the conveniences of greater Northwest Washington.
