Description of 2807 Chesterfield Pl, Washington, DC 20008
Listing details for 2807 Chesterfield Pl, Washington, DC 20008 : Now positioned at $3,995,000, this masterfully designed residence at the quiet end of a cul-de-sac bordering Rock Creek Park appears to emerge from the landscape itself. From the front approach, its restrained roofline, horizontal brickwork, and natural materials convey a calm order, an urban reflection of the organic principles advanced by Frank Lloyd Wright, and it features an elevator to all levels. The home feels timeless and assured, grounded in Washington’s built tradition yet oriented to the forest beyond.
At the rear, the façade becomes a masterclass in the fusion of dwelling and wooded landscape. Expanses of glass and carefully scaled terraces dissolve the boundary between structure and setting, allowing nature to animate the interior throughout the day.
Inside, the design by Travis Price, FAIA unfolds as a study in movement and light. A double-height great room anchors the plan, framed by floating landings and structural glass that draw natural light through every level. The arrangement creates a seamless progression from open gathering spaces to quieter moments of retreat, each revealing a distinct relationship to the wooded setting. Rooms adapt in purpose and scale, including a study or studio, a guest suite, a den that opens to a terrace, or a lower level designed for wellness and work.
Throughout, materials remain honest and enduring, with brick, glass, steel, and wood in balanced proportion. Every element serves the experience of living within the space rather than beside it.
The result is a home of enduring calm and presence, modern in spirit, profoundly connected to nature, and perfectly situated along one of the city’s most treasured park-front settings.
