634 LEXINGTON PLACE NE, Washington, District of Columbia County, DC, 20002 Washington DC US

An Exquisite One of a Kind Gut Renovation. This has the feel of an individual re-imagined recreation rather than a predictable developer reconfiguration & features. A 1913 “Wardman” Style Porch Front Town House with a Generous Setback. The meticulously crafted design elements promote gracious living spaces. Flooded with light, smart storage (you’ll never fret over where to put the vacuum), abundant closets (3 walk-ins professionally outfitted). Maximum utilization of available space (few hallways) capturing all available light via enlarged, added windows and glass doors. User friendly laundry areas.Appealingly landscaped outdoor spaces. The deck and large master bedroom balcony face north and are well shaded for DC’s hot summer afternoon usage. One can carry drinks & hors d’oeuvres directly from your kitchen to the entertainers’ paradise atop the garage without climbing any stairs (your Dachshund will love this feature!). There are 4 good-sized light flooded bedrooms (queen or king-sized beds) all ensuite. The second floor has a windowed open area for a study or computer work space, exercise equipment (treadmill) with a window view or a reading nook. The entire top floor is a huge, glorious master suite with a wall of glass, luxurious bathroom, commodious walk-in closet, roomy balcony to experience intimate lounging - dining, reading the newspaper or enjoying the view which is particularly splendid at night with the distant twinkling lights. The lower level is a cleverly fashioned one bedroom rental unit with full size appliances, plus side by side washer/dryer, front & rear glass doors and excellent storage. A one car garage and a big front porch (originally where residents cooled off in pre-AC DC) to sit and witness the small town activity of this quiet tree-lined block.The transformation of 634 Lexington Place included re-doing both the mansard and porch roofs. The third story was added. The second story ceiling lowered to give extra headroom on the top floor, as well as placing windows higher on the third floor. The remaining second floor head room is still over nine feet. Created a new front and better rear entrance to lower level.Special finishes include a stone fireplace façade surrounded with custom display niches, “waterfall” kitchen island stone, pre-wired TV hookup provided over the fireplace, and pre-wired for ceiling fans/overhead lights in most rooms. Windows were added and/or enlarged throughout. Large master bedroom shower with dual showerheads and built-in seat. Master balcony added. A custom “no stairs” walkway/gangplank created to the new garage rooftop deck.Normal finishes typically expected of this caliber home include wine cooler, exposed brick, wood floors, recessed lighting, thoughtful positioning of light switches and outlets, superb light fixtures well sited, period newal posts, graceful entry with original staircase, amusing clever coat rack, ceramic bathrooms all with storage vanities and lighted mirrors, easy wash windows.634 Lexington Place is located close-in to the centers of Congress, Supreme Court, and many governmental, lobbyist, and advocacy institutes and offices.
