Property Description
Cleveland Park is proximate to Washington’s core both literally and figuratively. The location affords its residents a level of convenience that is unrivaled in our metropolitan area and those of other major world cities, and the community is prototypically “Washington” in its culture. The conclusion of whether the homes make the community or the community makes homes is not one easily answered. 3025 Ordway Street is, however, not "prototypically Washington" in any way. The home was custom-built in 1948 by Carl Iver Johnson, an architect and builder of some repute in Washington, generally, and Cleveland Park, specifically. The home features elegant elements that are unusual for post-war architecture, include ceiling heights of over 10' on the grand main level, gracious proportions, and stunning plaster moldings. The home's "feel" is more reminiscent of a 1920s townhome than that of a free-standing property surrounded by mature trees and plantings. The design draws on the most appealing aspects of varied architectural periods and is suited for modern living with a flowing and rather open floor plan, while embracing a classical architectural language. Upon entry, one is greeted with a formal foyer and hall off of which the stairs to the upper and lower levels, a powder room, grand but approachable living and dining rooms, a truly stunning gourmet kitchen, and an ipé deck perched high above the trees are located. Five bedrooms and three full baths, currently configured as four bedrooms and a primary suite with an office and private balcony, grace the upper floors. The lower level walks out to an expansive flagstone patio, from which one can descend to a lower patio and basketball area, and a pleasant and exceedingly private pergola. Last sold in 1993, this property has been lovingly maintained and updated without interfering with the original architectural fabric in its thorough and thoughtful renovations. Every detail has been considered in the design and use, from tasteful choices of finishes to modern elements like recessed speakers, irrigation, and outdoor lighting. Overall, this home and its prime location just steps from the METRO and myriad conveniences , is a rare opportunity to plant roots and make a home.
