of the house, and you wouldn’t know it if you were

spending time together upstairs. There are spacious

entertaining areas, including two recreation rooms and

a wet bar, as well as an elevator, a wine cellar and an

exercise room.”

The grand elegance of the home reveals itself

at the front door, which opens to a two-story foyer

with marble floors, a custom S-shaped staircase and

dual chandeliers. Beyond are formal rooms, including

a massive living room and a handsome library with

built-in maple bookcases, as well as an immense din-

ing room featuring the original fireplace.

In the modern family kitchen, custom cabi-

netry, commercial appliances, a butler’s pantry and

stone countertops join a large center island with an

attached dining table. The home features two addi-

tional full kitchens, one of which has been created as

“the ideal catering space,” he

says. “You can back a cater-

ing truck down the driveway on

that side of the house, unseen,

and have a huge function. It’s

so well designed for large-scale entertaining, yet the

family spaces are equally impressive.”

This feeling extends outdoors, where the

half-acre lot features a huge resort pool and mature

landscaping, including its own cherry blossom tree,

a fountain and a cabana. “The outdoor area offers

a beautiful entertaining space on a level lot with

a large pool,” Coleman says. “The size of the lot,

the beauty of the land, the great amount of open

space — it’s all really unique. This property offers a

lovely, oversized entertaining lot with an immaculate

home in an incredible neighborhood with cachet. It’s

everything a Washington, D.C., buyer would ever

want, and then some.”

The main-floor family room offers views into the breakfast room

and main kitchen, and overlooks the rear garden and pool.
