Property Description
The home offers an exceptional ambiance, with an open layout flooded with natural light and elevated by high-end, thoughtfully curated finishes that deliver striking 'wow' moments throughout—far from your standard cookie-cutter design.
Beautifully updated throughout, the home features an open living room with built-ins, a gas fireplace, and refinished original hardwood floors. The galley kitchen offers butcher block counters, ample cabinetry, and newer appliances. The dining room shines with transom windows, chalkboard paint, and stylish lighting.
A rear loft adds charm with exposed brick, wood beams, and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the backyard. Upstairs, the front-facing primary suite includes great light, generous closet space, and a modern bath with glass shower, towel heater, and chic tile. Two additional bedrooms offer built-ins, strong storage, and shared access to a second full bath, with one connecting to the loft—ideal for an office or den.
The unfinished basement includes a washer/dryer area, half bath, cedar closet, and plentiful storage. The private backyard with garage access is perfect for entertaining, and the front yard offers room to bring your exterior design ideas to life.
Ideally situated just off Foxhall Road, this home offers seamless access to downtown DC, Arlington, Rosslyn, NoMa, and the Capital Beltway via Key Bridge and Canal Road. The nearby D6 bus stop—just one block away—provides direct service to downtown, Foggy Bottom, Georgetown, NW metro stations, and Bethesda. Major expressways including Canal/Clara Barton, Dalecarlia, and Whitehurst offer quick car access to Maryland, Virginia, the Beltway, and central DC.
The property is located near highly sought-after schools such as Key Elementary, Hardy Middle School, Sidwell Friends, and the National Cathedral School. Residents enjoy the peaceful charm of Volta Place while being minutes from vibrant neighborhoods like Tenleytown, Cleveland Park, and Friendship Heights—with convenient access to Starbucks, the U.S. Post Office, restaurants, and other local amenities. American University, Sibley Hospital, and Georgetown are all within walking distance.
Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the Capital Crescent Trail just a quarter mile away, linking to Rock Creek Park and hundreds of miles of green space. Enjoy a scenic and safe bike commute along the Potomac River, walk the C&O Canal to Fletcher's Cove, or bike north to Great Falls. In the summer, the Potomac Boat Club and Washington Canoe Club offer paddleboarding, sailing, and other water activities.
