SOLD – 1759 Lamont St NW

This quintessential Bay Front Victorian is sited on one of Mount Pleasants most iconic and coveted blocks, a bucolic promenade meandering through a dense tree canopy past lovingly landscaped gardens. Built in 1901, the craftsmanship of the era is incomparable: featuring masonry facades, arched doorways and transoms, coffered ceilings, ornate fireplace mantels and gleaming hardwood floors. The open-concept Living/Family area provides many options for todays modern living, while the formal Dining Room and renovated Chef~s Kitchen harken back to the original floor plan and gracious entertaining. A charming back staircase remains intact for a convenient entrance to the 2nd floor, and a powder room has been added on the main level for ultimate convenience. There is a multi-tiered rear deck, a virtual urban oasis nestled smartly above the garage featuring ample space for parties and stockade fencing for privacy. The current owners completed the needed renovations to make the lower level a spacious and legal 1 Bedroom/1 Bathroom unit with front and rear entrances, and recently added a solar array for which the future owners will benefit for years to come. This coveted location is only a stroll to myriad neighborhood shopping and restaurant venues, Metro and all the beauty of Rock Creek Park and Zoo, truly the perfect choice for today~s most discriminating Buyer.
