Property details
About 2716 38th St NW
Tucked away at the end of a quiet, leafy enclave in prestigious Observatory Circle, 2716 38th Street NW is a masterful fusion of 1920s glamour and contemporary luxury, showcasing acclaimed designer Zoe Feldman's signature style. Featured in Architectural Digest and reimagined with meticulous attention to detail, this residence seamlessly blends elevated aesthetics with exceptional functionality. Beyond an ivy-clad façade and a charming flagstone walkway, the home opens to character-rich interiors layered with custom millwork, curated finishes, and designer appointments at every turn. Preserved original hardwood floors, retro Forbes & Lomax dimmers, and an elegant center-hall layout set a refined tone from the moment of entry. The reception foyer, anchored by a central staircase, leads to formal living and dining rooms that exude sophistication. The living room is centered around a wood-burning fireplace framed by a Chesneys mantel, Farrow & Ball hues, and steel-framed doors opening onto a private rear patio. The adjacent dining room stuns with hand-painted De Gournay wallpaper, automated blinds, built-in wine storage, and Tesla faux leather-upholstered bench seating with hidden compartments. Mitzi lighting echoes the foyer’s classic elegance. The chef’s kitchen is a functional work of art, featuring a BlueStar range with gold hardware, honed Carrara marble countertops, Waterworks fixtures, and a Clé tile backsplash. Custom pantry walls with sliding drawers enhance its tailored design, while the adjoining family room offers concealed radiators, bespoke media cabinetry, and additional integrated storage. A jewel-box powder room completes the main level. Upstairs, three secondary bedrooms each evoke a distinct aesthetic. One guest room features Zak+Fox wallpaper and integrated cabinetry lighting, while another enjoys a private playroom, en-suite bath, Little Greene wallpaper, and Stark carpeting. A versatile den—cloaked in suede wallcovering and Farrow & Ball paint—boasts a built-in bar alcove and illuminated closets. A sumptuous hallway bath, adorned with Waterworks tile and fixtures, services the level. The entire top floor is dedicated to the private primary suite. Accessed through custom Harmon hinge doors by Thompson & Cook, the sanctuary offers William Morris wallpaper, antiqued mirror closets, automated shades, pendant lighting, and a concealed washer/dryer hook-up. A walk-in closet includes a remote-controlled safe. The spa-like primary bath features radiant heated floors, a freestanding Barclay soaking tub, a Tadelakt steam shower with Zellige Moroccan tile, Viola marble accents, and Waterworks fixtures throughout. The walk-out lower level includes a fitness area, a secondary laundry, and cleverly integrated storage solutions. Outside, a private stone patio—shielded by an ivy wall and festooned with solar string lights—invites festive outdoor gatherings. A two-car parking pad, rare in this historic enclave, enhances everyday convenience. There is also the authority and opportunity to construct an accessory dwelling unit for added flexibility or income generation. Recent upgrades include fully replaced HVAC systems, a central water filtration system, and a comprehensive SimpliSafe security suite. Ideally positioned just moments from Glover Archbold Park, the National Cathedral, and the vibrant Wisconsin Avenue corridor, 2716 38th Street NW is a one-of-a-kind offering—where world-class design meets effortless livability.
