Fulton – Washington, DC

About This Home

Perched atop a gentle hill on a premium quarter acre lot directly across from a wooded conservation area sits a stately painted brick colonial. Located in sought after Wesley Heights, Kent Construction & Development’s latest creation, encompasses the very highest in livability, thoughtful features, and luxury amenities. The timeless facade gives way to a formal reception area clad in spectacular hickory hardwood floors which flow throughout the home. The formal living room, which spans the entire depth of the property, opens via a set of French doors into the private sunroom.

Its handsome crown moldings elegantly complement the living space. The family room has been integrated into the kitchen area, opening up sight lines and affording an overall increased sense of light and space. The kitchen — the heart of every modern home — features custom built-in cabinets, sleek Arabescato quartz countertops, and a brand new suite of commercial-grade Thermador appliances. On the second level are three spacious bedroom suites each with a stylish tiled bath and large closet with custom cabinetry. The primary suite contains a dressing room complete with custom built-ins, which connects the sleeping area with the sumptuous bath lined with a radiant heated floor and rare bianco puro marble tile.

A third level provides a heightened level of versatility, with two additional bedrooms sharing a full bath, which can be used for a children’s play area, secluded office, or additional storage. Unlike so many homes, the lower level has not been neglected stylistically. Decorative shiplap is found alongside printed tile flooring adjacent to a painted fireplace wall. A large entertaining area consists of a home cinema setup, a recreation room, and a custom wine tasting room with backlit wall. A full sixth bedroom suite is ideal for multigenerational living, and access to the private two car garage is found on this level as well.

The transformation has not merely been skin-deep, as all new HVAC, Marvin windows, water heater, laundry appliances, and generator contribute to the functional usability of the home. Out back, the completely re-graded lot serves as the base for a serene, usable rear lawn complete with a rose garden and fire pit area suitable for large-scale outdoor entertaining. Situated in an incomparable location and having been thoroughly reworked by the renowned hands of Kent Construction & Development, Fulton represents an entirely new generation of urban living confined within historical walls.
