Get ready to fall in love! Welcome to this spectacular, one-of-a-kind home, once a schoolhouse & later owned by the British Lord and Lady Lindsay for 55 years. With unparalleled symmetry & soaring ceilings, this gem offers a seamless flow throughout. Accented with European oak plank flooring & magnificent custom German hardwood windows, each room is bathed in radiant sunlight from dawn till dusk. The stunning architectural elements showcase a preserved historic staircase, decorative moldings, multiple fireplaces, plaster walls, picture railing & transoms. Enter the vestibule, with imported cement-mosaic inlaid tile, & feel the balance of the light-drenched parlor with a wood-burning fireplace; a gracious living room with stunning chandeliers & classic sconces; and breathtaking 6-inch wide oak plank floors that lead you through the entire first floor. Move through the tall, six-panel original pocket doors & find an expansive second living space with a gorgeous bay window & lush green garden views from the front to the back of the house. The visual through-lines of this home are unprecedented. Enjoy the feeling of cooking and entertaining in the Poggenpohl white kitchen & the Great Room. The Miele steam and convection oven, Miele range and oven, and Viking refrigerator are just a few of the modern kitchen features. The airy kitchen design with the cooktop facing the expansive great room is the quintessential gathering place for family and friends. The grandeur of the Great Room is enhanced by 1940s-style art deco theatre lamps & a rear glass wall. Floor-to-ceiling windows promote seamless indoor-outdoor connectivity & lead directly to the terraced deck & white-graveled patio, completing the harmonious transition. Relax by the floor-to-ceiling Scandinavian white dry-stacked stone fireplace adorned with inlaid cement-mosaic tile and balanced tall insets with birch firewood, that can heat the entire first floor, making cool winter evenings a cozy, unforgettable experience. The historic, preserved, staircase is a breathtaking classic feature, flooded with light and original, heart-pine floors. Ascending the wide staircase, enter the gracious, first floor landing with five historic interior transom windows above every door, amplifying light and architectural charm. Here you will find three light-filled bedrooms with heart-pine original hardwood floors and a breathtaking white marble bathroom with Durvavit finishings and classic herringbone marble tile that is repeated in each bathroom on the floor. Discover the cedar wood-planked outdoor roof deck that stretches across the entire back of the house, to enjoy morning yoga or coffee and evening sunsets under the breathtaking panoramic views. On the top level of the house, enter a beautifully redesigned light filled, expansive retreat, with three lovely dormer windows, Scandinavian white-washed wide planked ceilings, and gleaming hardwood floors. With its own bathroom, this space is your next home office or a teenagers’ dream bedroom, living room, music and entertaining suite. Just beyond the main level laundry room, step down to the lower level where you will find an ample amount of storage space. Descend into the dug-out basement addition, boasting rare, lofty ceilings that transform into your ideal home gym or recreation area. This historic home presents a rare opportunity to move right in and create lasting memories in a cherished neighborhood. Just steps to the weekly organic farmer’s market, the Brookville market, the beloved Olympia diner, local pharmacy, the popular restaurant La Ferme, the dog park, playground, and the highly-regarded CCUMC Preschool, which serves as a feeder to the stellar Chevy Chase public school cluster. Section 3 is known for its strong community & incredible neighborhood gatherings. Minutes away from DC city living, you find yourself in the loving embrace of a cozy neighborhood while being a short drive to all that the city has to offer.
