Three Units. One Singular Home.

Three residences seamlessly combined into one expansive, top-floor home—an exceptionally rare offering defined by remarkable scale, abundant light, and extraordinary views, all within an intimate, well-managed cooperative.

Spanning more than 3,600 square feet, this four-bedroom, five-and-a-half-bath home lives like a private residence. The sense of volume is immediate, with generous proportions, natural flow, and thoughtfully defined spaces to retreat, work, host guests, or support comfortable multigenerational living.

From its elevated vantage point, sweeping panoramic views extend from the Washington National Cathedral to the Potomac River and beyond, across the city skyline. Each July 4th, multiple fireworks displays unfold in full view, creating one of Washington's most coveted vantage points.

A gracious entry and foyer lead to beautifully proportioned living and dining rooms, equally suited to intimate evenings or lively gatherings. The oversized gourmet kitchen rivals those found in many single-family homes. A separate family room—complete with a fully equipped auxiliary kitchen—creates an additional living hub, ideal for casual evenings, extended stays, or hosting with ease.

The primary suite is quietly set apart and offers sweeping views, dual primary bathrooms, and a generous sitting or dressing room—private, serene, and comfortably removed from the rest of the home. Three additional bedrooms are supported by multiple full baths, along with a separate den or office ideal for work, study, or quiet retreat.

Monthly co-op fees include operating costs, utilities (excluding cable and internet), property taxes, reserves, and three individually assigned storage units. Building amenities include a fitness room, library, and laundry facilities. Ample free outdoor parking with optional indoor parking. The adjacent Westchester Cooperative offers everyday conveniences and access to a shared 15-acre landscaped campus.

Homes of this scale, flexibility, and vantage point rarely come to market.
