Prominently sited on a hill overlooking Rock Creek Park, this architecturally stunning, custom-built, contemporary home, built in 1972, has been completely redone - more like new construction than a mere renovation. This bright, airy, multi-level home, meticulously renovated from top to bottom, has the perfect flow for entertainment or just living in this home full of light. This approximately 6,000-square-feet home features 4 bedrooms and 3 baths on two spacious levels and two half-baths. Enter the two-story foyer with a view facing Rock Creek Park- a 1,700+ acre city park, a peaceful refuge and a veritable oasis. The foyer leads into an open-air parlor, complete with fireplace and stunning details that allow the evening sun to shine through. Up one level is the gourmet kitchen, complete with two dishwashers, double sink, an eight-burner gas stove with dual ovens, a dual-function microwave and a 6-foot-wide Electrolux refrigerator, a built-in breakfast area- still with enough room for an oversized dining room with 16-foot high ceilings in the family room, a gas fireplace and wired speakers. The flooring features 7 inch wide engineered wood in a soft brown finish. Easy flow from the family room into the patio, which features composite decking; the brick exterior is accented with Hardiplank panels, Hardiplank trim and teak accents. The upper level features 3 bedrooms - including a primary bedroom with an ensuite bath with tub, shower, dual vanities and an oversized walk-in closet and another gas fireplace and sitting area. Two more roomy bedrooms share a hall bath. An oversized laundry room provides that all-too-desired, but seldom available, laundry within easy reach of the bedrooms. The lower level includes a spacious in-law suite/ bedroom /office with a walk-in closet, separate bath with a jetted tub and a separate entrance. This level also features a multistage 25 x 28 media room, wet bar, a gaming area and a second den with a wood-burning fireplace. The entire house is equipped with CAT6 data wiring. Bonus: Dual HVAC service in this home aims to enhance energy efficiency.
