Welcome to 1441 Manchester Lane NW in DC’s sought-after 16th Street Heights, a distinguished residence that echoes the rich tapestry of Washington, DC’s architectural history. Built in 1937 by the renowned architect Lewis W. Giles for Isadore Katz, an attorney for the American Federation of Labor, this home stands as a testament to timeless elegance and true craftsmanship. 
 This deceptively spacious English Tudor home offers an expansive 3,816 square feet of refined living space, nestled on a generous 7,179 square foot lot. With five bedrooms and four full bathrooms, it artfully combines historic charm with modern luxury. 
The current owners have invested over $500,000 in meticulous improvements, enhancing both the aesthetics and functionality of the home. Investments also include painstakingly restoring the bathrooms to their original 1937 glory. The main level unfolds with a grand living room featuring a classic wood-burning fireplace, a newly relocated and renovated kitchen, a separate dining room, a family room, a full bathroom, and a versatile bedroom that can also serve as a home office. 
 Ascend to the upper level to discover a serene sanctuary with three additional bedrooms. The primary suite is a haven of comfort, boasting a newly renovated en-suite bathroom complete with heated floors, adding a touch of modern indulgence to the historic ambiance. 
The lower level houses a comprehensive in-law suite, perfect for extended family or guests. It features a spacious additional family room with its own wood-burning fireplace, a full kitchen, a bedroom, and a full bathroom. This level also includes a large storage/utility room and a separate laundry room, ensuring ample space and convenience. Outside you will find a fully fenced in professionally landscaped back yard with new deck, a vegetable/flower garden and a large double car garage. 
This home is more than a residence; it is a piece of history, lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated to meet the needs of today's discerning homeowner. Immerse yourself in the elegance and sophistication of this remarkable property in the heart of Washington, DC.
