Colorful Co-Op with Stunning View in Observatory Circle: $675,000

Elegantly perched atop one of the highest points in the city, this historic DC cooperative was originally constructed in the early 1930’s, and nearly a century later, The Westchester remains a most desirable location to live, as featured in Goode’s “Best Addresses”. As you discover the old-world grandeur of The Westchester and all it has to offer, you will also appreciate that residence #811A has one of the community’s very few private terraces – and even more exclusively – one that provides a glorious view of the National Cathedral and surrounding neighborhoods. Views continue throughout the interior living space and as you move into the bedrooms with extraordinary views spanning from downtown Washington, DC, to Virginia with Reagan National Airport, The Pentagon, and beyond. Yes, you can indeed see the Fourth of July fireworks as well! Wonderfully situated on the northeast corner of the A-Building’s penthouse level, Residence #811A’s allure is not only in its panoramic views, but also its impeccably designed interior. The welcoming Entry Hall features a built-in china cabinet with interior lit glass panel doors as its centerpiece, along with painted diamond design parquet floors and 9-ft ceilings that continue throughout the living spaces. The grand living room boasts a stylish custom banquet, and a wall of windows with sliding glass door opening to the large private terrace with retractable awning offering a relaxing open-air retreat. An arched doorway is open to a corner den/dining room offering an abundance of natural light with windows on two sides. The updated kitchen is well-appointed with Caesarstone counters, custom cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances including refrigerator, dishwasher, and gas range with microwave above. You will also find great storage space with the custom pantry and breakfast nook. The approx. 1,350 SF floor plan includes 2 bedrooms with generous closet space, and a handsome marble bathroom with sliding glass door shower/tub and timeless sterling silver chandelier. This is truly a one-of-a-kind Westchester unit that shines!
