3015 PORTER STREET NW, WASHINGTON, DC 20008 - Michael Gillespie & CO Real Estate

$1,775,000

Set along one of Cleveland Park's leafy streets, five minutes from the Metro and a short walk to Rock Creek Park, this 1924 semi-detached home is larger and wider than many of its neighbors. It retains the assurance of its original architecture while embracing a design-forward renovation. The effect is… Read More immediate: a sense of ease, of proportion, of rooms that feel considered rather than merely arranged. Thoughtfully conceived - every space is inviting and beautiful. The gracious foyer opens to a living room centered by a wood-burning fireplace, a room that feels equally suited to conversation on a winter evening or sunlight drifting across the floor on a Sunday morning. Beyond, the house unfolds into its true centerpiece: a remarkable kitchen, dining, and family room designed for gathering. Banks of windows frame a canopy of green. A substantial quartz waterfall island anchors the space, complemented by professional-grade appliances and thoughtful details for those who genuinely love to cook, entertain, and linger. Large pantry! Along the rear wall, expansive sliding doors dissolve the boundary between indoors and out. The garden feels tucked away from the city, layered with mature landscaping, a generous deck, and a flagstone patio that invite long dinners, quiet reading, and afternoons spent beneath the trees. Upstairs, the primary suite is a retreat unto itself. Expanded and wrapped in windows, it is filled with dappled light and views of the surrounding greenery. A sitting area, luxurious renovated bath, and extraordinary walk-in closet complete the space. Two additional bedrooms and a beautifully updated bath occupy the remainder of the level. The third floor offers rare flexibility: a large sunlit room equally suited as a family room, office, studio, guest room, or playroom. Below, the lower level - with its own entrance, kitchenette, full bath, living area, and bedroom - feels unexpectedly bright and welcoming, ready to serve as a guest suite, home office, or private space for extended family. Two car carport with very ample bike storage and crazy great shed in rear. Electric car charger. Solar for energy savings (owned and conveys). Over two decades of stewardship, the current owners invested about a half million for their own use and pleasure. Nearly every element was approached with intention, from the complete redesign of the rear living spaces to the creation of the garden and outdoors landscaping and hardscaping. Owners installed new air handler and compressor for AC. Relined fireplace. Custom bookshelves by fireplace made by a Corcoran School of the Arts professor, speak to a house shaped by people who cared deeply about beauty and use in equal measure. Just beyond the front door are the pleasures that make Cleveland Park enduringly beloved: the farmers market, neighborhood restaurants and cafe9;s, shops, parks, tennis courts, public pool, soccer fields, and the National Zoo. A neighborhood that feels connected to both city and nature. A house that feels, in every sense, at home there. Read Less
