Property Description

Discover the pinnacle of contemporary luxury with the newly constructed home by renowned Property Alchemist LLC, located in the tranquil Kent neighborhood of Washington, DC. This architectural gem draws its inspiration from soft modern movement, boasting a facade of sleek stucco paired with rich wood and framed by elegantly laid natural stone paths and terraces. The entry level exudes a welcoming warmth, illuminated by abundant natural light that enhances the pristine oak wood floors and highlights the dramatic two-story foyer. Designed for both comfort and entertaining, this floor features a family room complete with a chic serving station that includes a wet bar, mini-fridge, and ice maker, while French doors open to a covered rear terrace. Accommodations on this floor include two luxurious bedroom suites, each with private bathrooms, making it ideal for multigenerational living with the convenience of an elevator accessing all levels. Further enhancing its allure, there is a spacious mudroom / laundry room equipped with ample storage and a utility sink. A glass-paneled staircase with vertical slat detailing ascends to the second floor where the expansive open concept floor plan unfolds under soaring ceilings and generously scaled formal living spaces. Here, a sophisticated living room features a stunning two-sided architectural fireplace shared with the formal dining room, beneath a stunning and backlit tray ceiling designed for sublime entertaining. The state-of-the-art gourmet kitchen is a culinary showcase well-appointed with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops and backsplash, and includes a beverage refrigerator, an ice maker, and high-end appliances from SubZero, Dacor, and Bosch. Adjacent to the kitchen, a generous butlers pantry offers additional storage along with wall ovens and a sink. The kitchen seamlessly connects to the expansive and sunlit breakfast and family rooms, with light from southwestern facing oversized windows. There is also the added convenience of a sizable office on this floor. The tastefully designed hardscape terrace is perfect for entertaining, featuring ample table space for dining and a cozy seating area with a firepit, creating an inviting atmosphere for gatherings. The top floor is flooded with sunlight from three skylights and hosts three en-suite bedrooms, including the luxurious primary suite.
