About this home
Welcome to 1479 Florida Avenue Northwest, a stately, elevated rowhouse located in the heart of the coveted Dupont/U Street corridor. This elegant residence exudes charm and sophistication, nestled above street level, offering a serene retreat amidst vibrant city life with plenty of space and a private rear oasis. The freshly painted interior and refinished wood floors have this home ready for city living at its finest.
As you step inside, you'll be greeted by a perfect blend of traditional and contemporary design. The main level features a front foyer and a formal front room that transitions into a flexible open space, encompassing a spacious dining and entertaining area, a large, well-appointed kitchen and a main level half bath. The 10 foot ceilings highlight the original pocket doors, and much of the original moldings remain. The ambiance is enhanced by three beautifully crafted fireplaces—one gas and two wood-burning—adding warmth and character to each room. The updated recessed Hue lighting sets the perfect mood for entertaining on this level. The main level half bath further enhances the space's hosting functionality.
The home spans three fully finished levels, offering ample space for cozy gatherings or tranquil solitude. The upper floor houses three inviting bedrooms, including a full-width front primary bedroom that serves as a luxurious retreat. A modern hall bath complements the private quarters. The original glass transoms on the upper level doors further add to the character of the property.
Venture downstairs to the finished lower level, where a large family room awaits, complete with a full bath and split system heating and cooling. A large laundry room has plenty of built-in shelving and cabinets for all your supplies and a massive storage closet provides the extra storage everyone needs.
The hosting flow of this home is exceptional, with two doors leading from the kitchen to the flagstone patio in the rear yard along with exterior stairs to the lower level entry, providing easy access and a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience.
With the vibrant 14th Street corridor just a block away, along with the proximity to both the U Street and Dupont Circle metro stations, convenience and culture are truly at your doorstep. Meridian Hill Park is merely a block west, offering a splendid respite in the city. Streets Market, Tatte, Franklin Hall, Busboys & Poets and Trader Joe's are all within blocks of this centrally located home.
This light-filled grand dame is more than a house; it's a lifestyle—an opportunity to savor the elegance and excitement of city living while enjoying the privacy and tranquility of your personal haven. Discover the perfect balance of charm, convenience, and contemporary living at 1479 Florida Avenue Northwest.
