It’s an easy stroll to the Friendship Heights Metro station and nearby shopping and dining.
“Take advantage of this rare opportunity to own a home that truly has it all,” said Heller. “Larger than most homes, this splendid residence affords commanding views from terraces on both levels, magnificent antique furniture, crystal chandeliers from a Paris train station, and all in a resort-style setting – there’s nothing like it in the city.”
The quality craftsmanship of this penthouse is reflected in the no-expense-spared renovation completed in 2004, ensuring that every detail meets the highest standards of luxury and sophistication. As you enter, a gracious curved iron stairway graces the foyer, perfectly showcasing the “eye to the sky” stained glass skylight.
From the foyer, you’ll be welcomed into the rich wood-paneled library with its wall of floor-to-ceiling cabinets, and from there into the elegant parlor, complete with a gas fireplace and slider access to the extensive terrace. Take in the muraled niche before stepping up to the restaurant-worthy bar. Round the corner into the breathtaking salon with its 18+ foot wall of west-facing windows, providing ample space for a grand piano and showcasing incredible views.
A secret room houses the electronics for the entire unit in the generously sized yet cozy study. Beyond that is the sumptuous luxury hotel-worthy primary bedroom suite, featuring a sitting room with an electric fireplace, two generous dressing room areas, and two spa-like bathrooms.
