This is a truly exquisite renovation of a rarely available, fully-detached, original James McGill home. Built in 1873 and designed by famed architect James H. McGill – founder of LeDroit Park – this home exudes Beaux Arts grandeur with ornate masonry, curved bays, tall windows, a slate roof, and a wrought-iron balcony.  The interior has 4 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, including a stunning master bath with a unique double shower and soaking tub w/glass enclosure.  Luxury designer touches abound on the main level with a gracious open floor-plan, oak herringbone floors, custom cabinets, paneling, woodwork & trim, and 8’ doors under soaring ceilings.  The home boasts a chefs dream kitchen that opens to a covered porch, a gated back yard and carriage house that will accommodate 2 cars.  The lower-level has a family room, laundry room, and dog-washing station. The house is situated on a large corner lot. Own a piece of history!
