This 1877 historic treasure was designed by architect Victor O Mindeleff for veterinarian and professor Dr. Cecil French, described then by the Washington Post as "Perhaps in all this city no one person has so good a claim the friendship of dogs, and all pet animals, as Dr. Cecil French." Atop a hill overlooking Rock Creek Park and just uphill from the National Zoo - this amazing detached "cottage" has been gloriously reimagined. Thoughtfully renovated - everywhere you look is uplifting and pretty. Enter the elegant foyer with large coat closet, which opens to a spacious living room surrounded with windows - leading through French doors to an enchanting wraparound porch. Gracious dining room for large gatherings - inviting and bathed in leafy views. The kitchen is a showstopper. Completely redone with kitchen island and breakfast bar, high end appliances, farmhouse sink, custom cabinetry and wonderful extra cupboard area with pull out shelves and significant storage, and new windows! Adjacent to the kitchen is a family room with wall of built-ins for an entertainment center. Charming powder room on main level. Simply an amazing owners suite with large windows and a stunning ensuite luxury marble bath, with custom cabinets, fabulous hardware and large steam shower. Expanded and renovated closet with storage space galore. Owner's suite also has a desk nook AND a private balcony overlooking the park! Two more bedrooms on this level and another newly done beautiful hall bathroom! New roof in 2016, two zone heating and cooling added, rebuilt chimney, brand new water heater and a great deal more in renovations and upgrades. The owners also added a brick patio and walkways, landscaped the yard and added new bushes, trees, perennial plants, a picket fence and arbor, and a play area with playset! Large fenced yard in front of the house too! Expansive outdoor area for hosting friends - a large welcoming patio or enjoy the wraparound porch. Wonderful neighborhood - the corner is called "Klingle Triangle" with a group of friends and neighbors who hold a block party every year and enjoy many neighborhood gatherings year round. Steps to Rock Creek Park, walk to two Metro lines, a few blocks to the zoo, and a quick walk to Mount Pleasant Street, including award winning restaurant and coffee house Elle, the Saturday Farmer's Market and many wonderful restaurants and shops. Open Saturday 2-4 and Sunday 1-4.

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.
