Welcome to 4718 15th Street NW, a beautifully reimagined 1920s row home that perfectly blends timeless architecture with thoughtful modern updates. Nestled on a picturesque, tree-lined block in the heart of 16th Street Heights, this expansive residence offers more than 3,000 square feet of light-filled living space across four finished levels.
Step inside to find gracious proportions and elegant details at every turn. The inviting living room features a stunning built-in bookcase with a granite surround, creating a sophisticated focal point anchored by generous natural light. The adjoining dining room is enhanced by a newly installed coffered ceiling that adds both depth and character—an ideal setting for gatherings and dinner parties alike.
The updated kitchen offers a modern yet welcoming design, with stainless steel appliances, abundant counter space, and a seamless flow for everyday living and entertaining. Upstairs, the primary suite has been completely transformed with a custom walk-in closet and a luxurious ensuite bath designed to bring both comfort and convenience. Additional bedrooms provide flexibility for guests, home offices, or creative spaces, while the finished lower level offers a versatile recreation room, guest suite, or gym with its own full bath and private entrance.
Outdoors, the property truly shines. The backyard pergola and Brazilian wood deck patio create an inviting retreat for al fresco dining and relaxation, while the front porch has been updated with slate steps, a new ceiling fan, a beautiful magnolia tree creating timeless curb appeal. An added bonus includes extra attic storage for seasonal items, along with secure off-street parking for everyday ease.
Ideally located just moments from Rock Creek Park and convenient to the shops, dining, and community favorites of Petworth and Brightwood, this home offers the perfect balance of tranquility and accessibility. 4718 15th Street NW is a rare opportunity to own a fully updated historic gem in one of Washington’s most beloved neighborhoods.
