Listing details for 1730 Willard St NW, Washington, DC 20009 : NEW LISTING!! OPEN SATURDAY, 8/22, 1-4.
This exceptional home is perfectly located just moments from the restaurants, shops, parks, and Metro access that define Dupont Circle and the surrounding neighborhoods of Kalorama, Adams Morgan and the 14th St corridor. Approximately 4,053sf on four levels offers a flexible floor plan, combining elegant entertaining spaces, comfortable everyday living areas, and valuable income-producing potential.
The main-level semi-open floor plan features gracious living and dining rooms (with almost 10’ ceilings!), two fireplaces, and a modern, bright kitchen with ample workspace plus a center island with seating. A cozy family room adjoins the kitchen, creating an inviting space for everyday living, ideal for casual meals and gathering with family and friends. A powder room, laundry and two storage closets round out this level.
On the second floor, three large bedrooms and a full hall bath offer plenty of space and flexibility. The bay window bedroom at the front of the house is large enough to be a family room if not needed as a bedroom. The other two bedrooms could be used as a study, exercise room or library.
On the third floor, the primary suite offers a spacious retreat with vaulted ceilings, a walk-in closet, built-in dresser drawers and a spa-like bathroom with a soaking tub and separate (enormous) shower. The roof deck is large enough for dining and living areas, and the grill conveys! The floor-through skylight fills the home with natural light and enhances its airy feel, along with the 9’+ ceilings.
A standout feature of the property is the renovated/re-built lower-level 1BR/1BA apartment with a Certificate of Occupancy, almost unheard of in DC! It’s modern and sleek, and features front and rear entrances, plus a large center-island kitchen that’s open to the living and dining areas. There is a large bedroom, a laundry closet and ample other closets/ built-ins, and a bonus covered patio. Importantly, the Certificate of Occupancy is a feature that is increasingly rare for rental apartments in Washington, DC. Buyers considering income-producing opportunities should verify this distinction when comparing other properties, as legally approved rental units offer significant value and peace of mind.
Completing the home is one off-street parking space, accessible directly next to the kitchen door.
This is a rare opportunity to own a substantial city residence with flexibility, light and rental potential!
