Featured Property of the Week: 1460 Rhode Island Avenue NW #PH8

“One block off Logan Circle, this sophisticated home balances the preservation of its historic victorian architecture but is enhanced with a luxurious and versatile interior that comes with the execution of this boutique building’s re-imagination. This new construction penthouse lives like a rowhome spread out over 4 levels with 3 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms. A private elevator brings you into a foyer and to the main level where you are greeted with floor to ceiling windows throughout. This level has it all: a proper dining room large enough to host a sit down dinner party, a chef’s kitchen with Thermador appliances — caeserstone quartz countertops and backsplash — two-tone slab custom cabinetry — and a large pantry closet, a grand living room ample enough to have 2 distinct zones, 2 coat/storage closets, and a stylish half bathroom. The next level has the primary suite with a walk in closet and an ensuite bathroom with 2 separate vanities plus a toilet closet. This level is strategically capped off with a laundry room. The next level has 2 bedrooms each with its own private ensuite bathrooms. The next space is your private rooftop upgraded with ipe wood across 450 sq. ft. This space is a refuge within the heart of this unbeatable location, has city vistas, lots of warm sun during the day, and has water — electric — and gas hook ups so you can customize this space to live and host however best suits your needs. This space will be where you will host friends/work events, 4th of July parties, happy hours, and so much more. This unit has 2 parking spaces, although with this location, at the crossroads of many neighborhoods, your car(s) will likely sit parked. Logan Circle is one of the district’s most sought after neighborhoods because of its proximity to downtown and NW entertainment much within walking distance (this includes 8 metro stops under a mile). A luxury penthouse with these amenities and finishes in a boutique building does not come up often and will not last this spring market.”
