Welcome to your new turnkey home at the Lexington, a boutique condo building on the cusp of Dupont Circle and Kalorama, in one of the building's few, rarely available front-facing units. Upon entering the gracious foyer with coat closet, you will love the classic moldings and hardwood floors, which lead to a versatile bedroom or office space with a custom, black granite top built-in desk. Down the hall is a spacious open concept living and dining room featuring large, west-facing windows that afford beautiful views of 21st Street. Each window is outfitted with custom plantation shutters for a classic, contemporary look. You'll appreciate the smart pocket doors, recessed lighting, and wood-burning fireplace. The dining room has a passthrough for entertaining, and the recently updated kitchen includes contemporary cabinets, a subway tile backsplash, and newer stainless appliances. Across the hall is the first full bathroom, fully renovated in 2016 with a basketweave marble floor, Carrara marble walls, Restoration Hardware finishes, and a deep soaker tub. The primary suite is quietly tucked away at the end of the apartment, just past the in-unit washer/dryer. It has large closets outfitted with custom storage and an elegant bathroom that was similarly renovated in 2016 with a basketweave marble floor, Restoration Hardware finishes, a floor-to-ceiling Carrara marble and glass shower, and three Robern M Series medicine cabinets with built-in nightlight, defogging technology, USB charging ports, and power outlets. The apartment includes a storage unit on the terrace level, where you will also find bike storage space.
The Lexington is located on a quiet street just two blocks from Embassy Row and the Dupont Circle Metro station. It is pet friendly, rental friendly, and just completed installation of a new roof. You will enjoy the proximity to the Phillips Collection, the Spanish Steps, Mitchell Park, the Sunday Farmer's Market, and myriad shops and restaurants, including Teaism and Annabelle. But what you may love most is walking through the quiet, architecturally rich streets of Kalorama. It's a great way to start or end your day.
