Rarely will you find a home with more to offer than this timeless treasure in the heart of the East Village. Exquisitely maintained, this historic Federal home features four levels of living space, deep south-facing van Sweden designed gardens, garage parking, and the ultimate convenience of having Georgetown’s finest offerings at your fingertips. The journey through this magnificent residence begins at the main entry with its fanlight window and continues along a generous gallery with a decorative arch. A sunny ambiance permeates the entire home, with restored pegged oak floors, soaring ceilings, and a tapestry of original architectural details merging seamlessly with modern upgrades to make this the ideal place to live and entertain.

The expansive living room runs nearly the length of the home, with sunny exposures on three sides, full-height wainscoting, custom built-ins, a gas-burning fireplace, and a triple sash Jefferson window opening out to a terrace looking into the gardens. The adjacent study features wood paneling and built-ins, with a large three-sided window bay overlooking the backyard. On the garden level, you’ll find a spacious eat-in kitchen with oversized windows, featuring top-of-the-line appliances, marble counters, a double sink, and plentiful cabinetry. Beyond the kitchen is a beautifully appointed formal dining room with crystal wall sconces, crown molding, and views of the rear garden. The perfect space to host intimate meals with friends and family. Adjacent to the dining room sits the family room with a sunny window bay and a wraparound wall of custom cabinetry. Filled with light and overlooking the garden’s majestic fountain, this cozy space is a relaxing retreat.

Upper-level private quarters feature two bedrooms and two bathrooms, including the primary suite with antique pine floors, a large dressing room, and an ensuite bath with a marble-top vanity. A spacious front bedroom with windows on two sides currently functions as an additional family room, while a delightful home office offers a convenient place to work. Three more charming bedrooms are on the top floor, with a full bathroom, and a laundry room. Step outside to discover the deep south-facing garden with flagstone patios, terraced garden beds, and well-manicured and tasteful plantings. With its tall brick walls for added privacy, this magical space is ideal for daytime respite or hosting evening events.

History and community come together splendidly in Georgetown’s storied East Village. Residing on one of the most desirable blocks in all of Georgetown, the home is around the corner from La Chaumiere and steps from popular Rose Park. Stroll along the brick sidewalk to Scheele’s market and deli one block away, and all the great bakeries and restaurants along Wisconsin Ave, such as Martin’s Tavern, Café Milano, and Boulangerie Christophe. And explore Georgetown’s stunning waterfront, just a short distance away.
