Welcome to this stately home with over 3,700 square feet of living space, two-car parking, a garage/carriage house, and a backyard oasis all perfectly situated on the leafy and desirable 1700 block of Q St. , NW. In the heart of the historic Dupont Circle neighborhood, just steps to Metro, sidewalk dining, boutiques, cafes, shopping, art galleries, and much more. This four-level brownstone, designed by the renowned D. C. architect Thomas Franklin Schneider, boasts bespoke detailing throughout and is rare and grand at 20' x 40' . Enter through the original solid ash door into the light-filled entry and the open-concept main level with soaring ceilings, detailed moldings, hardwood floors and the original fireplace -- one of seven in the home. The living room with 10+ foot ceilings and charming sunlit bay window is ideal for entertaining and flows into a chef's kitchen with dining area, oversized granite island, stainless steel appliances, custom built-ins and the show stopper -- a wall of floor-to-ceiling original exposed brick. Take a few steps from the kitchen onto the back patio to enjoy dining under the stars or walk down to the lower level stone patio. You'll feel like you've landed on your own private European terrace with a canopy of trees and plantings along with entertaining, dining and grilling spaces. A custom-made brass handrail leads to the upper floors, including a spacious owner's retreat with an en suite bathroom and two walk-in closets; two more large bedrooms one with a loft; a bedroom just right for an office, nursery or craft room; full hall bath; and a grand den (or can be used as an additional bedroom) with custom built-ins and a delightful bay window seating area perfect for tea and a book.
