1850 5TH STREET NW

New in 2021, this Ledroit Park home on quiet, tree-lined 5th Street features a mix of period charm and modern, high-end details. A gated entry with electronic lock receives guests and deliveries, leading to a generous foyer that can double as a home office. Proceed down the hall to the garage (complete with electric car charger) before taking the stairs—or ELEVATOR—to the upper three floors. The second floor is an open living space with the living/dining room toward the back of the home, a convenient powder room and a beautiful custom kitchen up front, with integrated, custom-paneled Miele appliances, beautiful natural stone countertops, custom natural-finish wood cabinetry and large windows with a view onto 5th Street. On the third floor, two spacious bedrooms with custom closets and a sleek full bath. On the top floor, a grand primary living space, with a large bedroom, laundry closet and stunning bath with double vanity, large walk-in shower, separate soaking tub and gorgeous finishes and views. The home features high ceilings, cove lighting and hardwood floors throughout; a skylight at the top of the staircase; and a Control 4 Whole House Automation System (controlling audio and video throughout the home and the DoorBird intercom). Additionally, since purchasing the home, the owner has added over $65, 000 in additional upgrades, including new Pella windows throughout, an electronic lock on the front gate for secure package delivery, CitiQuiet soundproofing window inserts in the primary bedroom, four Mitsubishi mini-split systems for individualized climate control on each floor and motorized Shade Store blackout shades in several windows throughout the home. With a Walk Score of 98, this one-of-a-kind customized home is located just steps to award-winning restaurants, local boutiques, grocery stores and the Shaw and U Street metro stations.
