Welcome to an exceptional, fully renovateddetached residence in the heart of 16th Street Heights, offering more than 3,000 square feet of beautifully finished living space, 5 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and a level of design and craftsmanship that stands apart. Completely reimagined from top to bottom, this home pairs the character and scale of a classic DC residence with sophisticated modern finishes and an open, highly functional floor plan offering a unique single-level style of city living. Step inside to a bright and beautifully curated interior defined by warm light oak colored flooring, custom millwork, designer lighting, and thoughtful architectural details throughout. At the heart of the home is a showstopping chef’s kitchen featuring custom natural-wood cabinetry, sleek stone countertops, premium stainless steel appliances, and an oversized center island providing generous prep space, storage, and seating. Striking herringbone flooring adds another layer of character and gives the space a distinctly custom feel. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the surrounding living and entertaining spaces, creating an ideal layout for both everyday living and hosting. Across four beautifully finished levels, five generously sized bedrooms and three-and-a-half bathrooms provide exceptional flexibility for guests, home offices, or additional living space. The renovation continues throughout with beautifully appointed bathrooms, modern fixtures, carefully selected materials, and a cohesive attention to detail rarely found in a renovation. The outdoor space is equally impressive. Multiple walkouts from the rear of the home create a seamless connection to the fully fenced backyard, where a flat, professionally landscaped lawn provides an incredible extension of the living space with plenty of room for entertaining, relaxing, pets, or play. A dedicated parking pad adds an increasingly valuable convenience for city living. With more than 3,000 square feet, five bedrooms, expansive outdoor space, off-street parking, and a comprehensive high-end renovation, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy the space and privacy of a detached home paired with elevated, design-forward living in one of Northwest DC’s most desirable residential neighborhoods. * * Additional expansion renderings and documents available upon request * *
Brightwood Park, located between Georgia Avenue NW and Rock Creek Park, is a residential and commuter-friendly Washington neighborhood with leafy side streets and a steady, neighborhood-scale retail strip. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Georgia Ave NW at Kennedy St NW, where corner carryouts, barbershops, and small eateries keep the sidewalks active. Everyday rituals orbit La Coop Coffee, while Jackie Lee’s anchors the evening scene with a local bar-and-kitchen feel. Rows of early-20th-century brick rowhouses and porch-front singles set a consistent streetscape, punctuated by pocket parks and school grounds. Fort Stevens Park adds open lawns and Civil War-era history, and nearby Metrobus lines keep downtown connections straightforward.

Sixteenth Street Heights Residential House Zone 1B
The purposes of the Sixteenth Street Heights Residential House (R-1B/SH) zone are to: Promote the conservation, enhancement, and stability of the low-density, single dwelling unit neighborhood for housing and neighborhood-related uses; Control the expansion of nonresidential uses, and/or further conversion of residential housing to nonresidential uses in order to maintain the housing supply and minimize the external negative impacts of new nonresidential uses that are permitted in the R-1B/SH zone in order to preserve neighborhood quality; and Allow neighborhoods to continue to provide a range of health and social service facilities as well as private institutions that provide cultural and religious enrichment and economic vitality, but within the framework of improved public review and control over the external effects of nonresidential uses. The objective is to make more compatible the Comprehensive Plan's goals and policies for maintaining the quality and stability of residential neighborhoods with other policies related to the reasonable provision of human services throughout the District of Columbia.; The R-1B/SH zone is intended to: Respond to concerns that over a period of years approximately 1 in every 10 houses in the R-1B/SH zone north of Colorado Avenue, N.W. has been converted to a nonresidential use, a much higher ratio than has been identified for any other similarly zoned neighborhood in the District of Columbia; and south of Colorado Avenue, N.W., address concerns that more than 20 percent of the residentially zoned land is used for nonresidential purposes; Recognize that the neighborhood accommodates a significant number and range of human service facilities and private institutions to an extent that new and significantly expanded nonresidential use facilities should be governed by improved public review to ameliorate adverse impacts on immediate and nearby neighbors and to preserve a predominantly single dwelling unit residential character; Respond to the District of Columbia Comprehensive Plan’s identification of the number of nonresidential uses in the neighborhood as a problem; and Address the impacts of the number of nonresidential uses and the conversion of houses to these uses in the neighborhood as reflected in the Comprehensive Plan.
