HISTORIC ELEGANCE MEETS MODERN LUXURY! Nestled in the heart of Dupont Circle on the renowned Harvey L. Page block, 1611 Riggs Place NW stands as a testament to Washington, DC’s rich architectural history. This Queen Anne-style residence, built in 1889, is part of the last remaining complete block of original red-brick homes in the city. While the historic front façade has been preserved with the utmost care by District495, the interior has been reimagined to meet the highest standards of modern luxury living. Boasting 3,685 square feet across 4 stories, this beautiful home features 5 Bedrooms, 4.5 Bathrooms and tasteful interior design that harmoniously blends timeless elegance with modern sophistication. A full gut renovation turned masterpiece with every detail crafted and curated, from the soaring ceilings, to the timeless White Oak hardwood floors, the hand-picked marble selections, custom millwork, Waterworks fixtures, and designer lighting by Visual Comfort, Hudson Valley, and Restoration Hardware throughout. The chef’s Kitchen is a true showstopper, outfitted with premium Thermador appliances, custom two-tone inset cabinetry, premium marble countertops, backsplash and 9-foot waterfall island, and is anchored by a magnificent ILVE Majestic Range. The second level is dedicated exclusively to the Primary Suite, complete with a separate office, a sitting area, and a Dressing Suite that is a work of art with its custom-built cabinetry. The Primary Bathroom is a luxurious haven, boasting Waterworks fixtures, dual vanity sinks, a large soaking tub, and a spacious dual shower with a recessed rainfall shower system. The upper-level features 2 additional Bedrooms, 2 en-suite Bathrooms, and an Office/Den with convenient wet bar and roof deck access overlooking the rear of the home. The lower level of this stunning property offers great flexibility with its full Kitchen and separate entrances, serving as additional family gathering space or a potential one-bedroom rental opportunity, making it an excellent investment. The beautiful back patio provides an ideal setting for relaxation or outdoor entertainment. This home features not one but three outdoor spaces – both North and South facing. Enjoy the convenience of two full-size secure parking spaces outfitted with two electric charger hookups. This magnificent home is equipped with all the extras needed for entertaining guests, including 3 sets of washers and dryers, audio speakers throughout the house, and state of the art Wi-Fi appliances and switches; leaving no detail overlooked and no expense spared.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
