Situated on historic Embassy Row in Washington D. C., this elegant townhouse features a thoughtfully designed small rear garden with stunning views of Rock Creek Park.
Once an embassy, this home has been transformed to reflect a blend of classic modernism and Beaux-Arts elegance, harmonizing with the surrounding architectural gems.
The highlight of this home is its meticulously landscaped terrace garden. Designed by Horn & Co., the landscaping embraces the panoramic views while maximizing limited space. European Hornbeam trees thrive in this compact setting, while a custom-painted cedar fence with a Chippendale-style gate adds an inviting touch.
A captivating water feature serves as the centerpiece of the terrace, creating a soothing and tranquil atmosphere. The light limestone paving and vibrant bedding plants enhance the sense of floating above the park.
Builder McFarland Woods and interior designer Zoe Feldman collaborated on the project which incorporated timeless architectural elements that respect the home’s history.
Inside, the townhouse features expansive glass doors that seamlessly connect the interior with the outdoor oasis.
