1111 24th St NW #96 Washington, DC 20037

Listing details for 1111 24th St NW #96, Washington, DC 20037 : Westlight was never intended to blend in. That would have been rather out of character for a founder and developer who spent decades leaving a definitive mark on Washington’s residential landscape. Westlight was conceived as something genuinely modern—not another traditional Washington building dressed up with expensive finishes and called luxury. Some of its most important luxuries are the ones you cannot see. Westlight is LEED Gold certified, with fresh, filtered outdoor air delivered directly into each residence rather than simply recirculated through the building. Triple-glazed windows provide remarkable sound attenuation. The result is a home filled with light and connected to the city, while remaining surprisingly removed from its noise. It’s not the sort of thing buyers notice during the first five minutes of a showing. It will be one of the things they appreciate most after moving in. The building makes its intentions clear immediately. Glass, polished concrete, commissioned art and an extraordinary living wall create an arrival unlike anything else in Washington. Westlight does not look like every other luxury condominium. That was rather the point. Residence 96 is one of the building’s most compelling three-bedroom-plus-den homes, extending through Westlight with exposures in two directions. The main living spaces face south, while the bedrooms occupy the quieter northern side—a natural separation between the places where life happens and the places where the day ends. The living room, dining area and kitchen relate easily to one another without dissolving into one enormous, undefined space. Each has its place. The den, open to both the foyer and living room, becomes a flexible extension of the main living area. Library. Study. Television space. Somewhere to sit slightly apart without disappearing entirely. The kitchen is sleek, but not simply there to be admired. Custom Italian high-gloss cabinetry conceals an integrated refrigerator and provides an almost unreasonable amount of storage. Quartzite counters, Bosch appliances and gas cooking make it as functional as it is composed. Even the refrigerator knows how to disappear. Wide-plank natural oak floors soften the clean lines throughout. The bedroom wing is especially well resolved. The primary suite is privately positioned with a walk-in closet and spa-influenced bath, while the two additional bedrooms are set farther along the residence, each convenient to a full bath. These are proper bedrooms with real closets, real walls and enough space for real furniture. No apology required. The baths are crisp, restrained and beautifully detailed, with Waterworks fixtures, floating vanities, frameless glass and slatted Ipe teak shower floors. The hall bath includes a full tub, because sometimes practicality is a luxury too. Up one final elevator ride, Westlight delivers its most theatrical gesture: a rooftop that feels less like an amenity deck and more like a private resort suspended above Washington. A 25-meter heated pool stretches across the skyline, surrounded by landscaped areas, grilling stations, dining tables and broad expanses of open sky. There is also a private club room with catering kitchen, a serious fitness center equipped with Peloton and Technogym equipment, and the sort of professionally staffed service that makes life easier without making a production of it.Two secure, side-by-side garage parking spaces and a separate storage unit complete the offering. There are buildings with longer amenity lists. Westlight offers something more difficult to quantify: light, air, quiet, good design and the sense that nearly everything has been considered. Residence 96 has all of it.
