Some homes simply have a presence--a way of welcoming you in and making you never want to leave. This fully renovated, character-filled retreat in one of DC's most prestigious neighborhoods is exactly that kind of home. It offers a seamless blend of old-world charm and modern luxury, nestled against the breathtaking backdrop of Battery Kemble Park. As you walk through the front door, you're immediately drawn toward the heart of the home--the expansive, renovated kitchen. Beautiful oak cabinetry, sleek stainless steel appliances, and a grand island create a space that is as inviting as it is functional. Whether you're preparing a quiet breakfast or hosting a lively dinner, the open flow to the dining room and sunroom makes every gathering effortless. Beyond the kitchen, the sunroom steals the show. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame an uninterrupted view of Battery Kemble Park, making you feel as if nature itself is part of the home. Here, mornings start with the soft glow of sunrise over the treetops, and evenings are spent unwinding in the peace and quiet of one of the most serene settings in DC. Step outside onto the spacious deck, accessible from both the sunroom and the living room, and soak in the fresh air while entertaining friends or simply enjoying a quiet moment with a book. Inside, the living room's fireplace adds warmth and ambiance, creating the perfect setting for crisp fall evenings. A cozy den with built-in bookcases offers the ideal space for a home office, a library, or a creative retreat. On the second level, three generously sized bedrooms, each with ample storage, offer comfort and privacy. A thoughtfully designed layout ensures a natural flow between spaces, providing room for everyone to spread out yet stay connected. As you make your way up the stairs, the top-floor master suite unfolds like a private oasis. A space designed to be more than just a bedroom, it boasts expansive windows with breathtaking panoramic views, a newly renovated spa-like bathroom, and an oversized walk-in closet fit for a fashion enthusiast. But perhaps the most special feature of this suite is the bonus room--a flexible space that could be your art studio, yoga retreat, exercise room, or private study. The possibilities are endless. And There's More... The lower level offers even more versatility, with an additional bedroom, a spacious recreation room, and direct access to the stone patio, surrounded by lush landscaping. Whether it's used as a guest suite, media room, or an escape for quiet relaxation, this level completes the home's perfect balance of functionality and charm. A Rare Opportunity in an Exceptional Setting This home is more than just a place to live--it's a retreat, a gathering space, and an entertainer's dream, all set against the unparalleled beauty of nature while remaining just minutes from Georgetown and downtown DC. Homes like this don't come along often.
Kent, located between MacArthur Boulevard NW and the Potomac River, is a residential and leafy Washington, DC neighborhood with wooded slopes and mid-century modern homes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around MacArthur Blvd NW near Arizona Ave NW, where a low-key strip of local markets, cafes, and everyday services sets the pace. Community pillars include the historic Glen Echo Park arts campus, the Palisades Hub Food Hall, and the C&O Canal’s towpath corridor. Streets curve along parkland edges, with deep lots and a quiet, garden-like streetscape. Architecture leans toward brick Colonials and modernist renovations tucked into the hills. Trail connections and river views shape a calm, outdoors-forward routine.
