Property Description
Welcome to 2137 R Street NW, a stately Federal residence perfectly positioned on one of the most sought-after blocks in Washington D.C., where Dupont Circle meets Kalorama and Georgetown, near the historic Spanish Steps and the distinguished Embassy Row. Nestled on the premier stretch of R Street, this home embodies timeless elegance and modern refinement. A gracious and flowing floor plan unfolds upon entry, revealing exquisite architectural detailing, intricate millwork, and fireplaces that define the home's enduring character. The main level offers an impressive sense of scale with a grand living and dining room, a butler's pantry with built-in wine storage, and a showpiece designer kitchen, meticulously crafted for both intimate dinners and large-scale entertaining. French doors extend the living space outdoors to a tranquil private patio, offering an idyllic setting for alfresco dining or quiet moments surrounded by lush greenery.
The second level is devoted to a primary suite, accompanied by an inviting flex space and a beautifully appointed wet bar. A spacious multi-season screened porch, complete with integrated heat lamps, provides a serene retreat that captures the peaceful ambiance of Kalorama. The upper floors continue to impress with generously sized guest bedrooms and a dedicated home office, offering flexibility. The fully finished lower level includes a complete au pair or in-law suite, thoughtfully designed with a second kitchen, ideal for guests or extended stays. A rare attached secure garage adds exceptional convenience. Classic yet contemporary, 2137 R Street NW stands as a testament to architectural grace, thoughtful design, and modern luxury, a residence in one of Washington's most prestigious and historically significant enclaves.
