kent 5401 hawthorne place, nw washington, dc 20016 offered at $2,595,000
T
he lower Kent/Palisades neighborhood is conveniently close to the myriad shops, restaurants and local businesses along MacArthur Boulevard. The area is known for its vibrant community spirit – neighbors support fundraisers at the local public school and celebrate holidays at Fourth of July and Halloween parades. Nature lovers appreciate the proximity of hiking trails and bicycle paths along the Potomac River. The area is served by several bus lines (one of which makes a quick connection to the Tenleytown metro) and is convenient to downtown, Georgetown, and the Virginia and Maryland suburbs. Both Dulles Airport and Reagan National Airport are readily accessible from this location, as are all the commercial and cultural landmarks of the city. Situated at the end of a quiet wooded block, this 5,500 square foot house has been sited to maximize the natural setting, its rooms oriented to capture the most advantageous sunlight throughout the day. The owner/architect drew inspiration from the original stone lock houses along the C and O canal, and the structure is in fact a perfect rectangle of stone, steel and large expanses of glass. Its deceptively simple design belies the understated sophistication and elegance of the interior -- a stunning compendium of soaring, open spaces, exposed beams and other elements of industrial design softened by touches of luxury, rich heart-of pine floors and brilliant natural illumination. The home has six bedrooms and four and a half baths, plus a lower level two-bedroom/one bath in-law suite with its own exterior entrance.
The first floor of 5401 is essentially a great room, with large windows and five sets of tall glass doors leading to a deck that runs the length of the house and culminates in a lovely heated salt water swimming pool. An office and powder room anchor one end of the great room and an elegant open kitchen the other; there is ample space for seating and dining in the large open area between. A striking stairway with custom metal railings punctuates the center of the house and leads to the upper levels. To the left of the second floor landing are two sunny and spacious bedrooms and a full bath; two additional bedrooms and a bath are off to the right. A serene master suite occupies the entire top floor. The bedroom has a 12-foot peaked ceiling with exposed beams, two walk-in closets and a large Juliet balcony that offers panoramic views over neighboring rooftops. The adjacent skylit master bath has a soaking tub and separate glass shower as well as two water closets and a large marble vanity with two sinks. At the far end is a private dressing area with multiple closets.
