On a corner lot, its Mediterranean style gives you that warm welcoming feeling when you pull up in the drive. It's very elegant but also a friendly house where a good-sized family can spread out with entertainment areas separated so that teenagers can enjoy their noise on one side while adults enjoy the other side without being aware of each other. (Did we just hear someone yell, "Sold!"?) One wing is designed exclusively for entertaining with its own side entrance, perfect for containing guests away from private family areas, and there is extra parking for 10 cars. The garage also has a new second floor apartment, perfect as live-in staff quarters or a private, self-contained guest suite. At 7,728sf the main house has 5 bedrooms, 5 full baths and 2 partial baths and the garage apartment has 1 bedroom, 1 bath, living room and kitchen.

The main house is blessed with a huge media room, great room and multiple terraces. Though many might consider a little 21st Century rip and strip for updating purposes, the chestnut used in the library and other areas is a rare find and the layout can't be beat. The third level is finished into a large bedroom with closet and reminds us of the attic bedrooms of many a Master Piece Theatre story character, just oozing with charm.

With politics neither here nor there, we think Joe Biden and his family would make fun neighbors. We love the possibilities! Perfect location for Washington movers and doers and for those who love to entertain! 1926 D.C. Estate priced at $6.9m.
