A custom boot room with integrated command center offers equal parts functionality and elegant transition space. Behind the finishes lies an equally impressive investment in performance: ZIP System construction, extensive waterproofing and sound insulation, five-zone climate control, Energy Recovery Ventilation and advanced technology infrastructure. Prewiring for automated shades, security and expanded audiovisual systems, along with provisions for a golf simulator, theater and future pool, provide exceptional flexibility for the next owner.

The lower level adds a wine cellar, guest accommodations, kitchenette and recreation areas, making the home particularly well-suited to accommodate extended family, live-in staff or multigenerational living. From the city's leading independent schools and embassies to Georgetown's restaurants, boutiques and waterfront, Washington's finest destinations are only minutes away.
