Major system upgrades include all new plumbing, electric, cable television wiring, Central Air, heat, smoke detectors, new roof and new foundation.

Modest updates to the exterior design include two new dormer windows on the third floor. But step beyond the charming traditional Side-Hall Colonial facade and you'll discover a premier residence that now features 4 gorgeous finished levels, 4 bedrooms (including a sumptuous master suite with a spa-like marble en-suite bath, private balcony, separate dressing room, washer/dryer and an adjoining study/nursery/office) and 4 1/2 baths, including a new powder room conveniently located on the main level.

With the final steps of renovation still in the process of being completed (set to be finished prior to settlement), the next fortunate owner of this home may still have time to make some final finishing requests, but only if you act quickly.

Upon entering the home visitors are greeted by a dramatic, completely re-structured, soaring three-story open staircase that's sure to wow guests. Awash in sunlight thanks to a new third-floor dormer window that cascades natural light down through the open staircase, the foyer is but one of the builder's creative masterpieces. Other newly added architectural details in the foyer, such as graceful arched entries leading to the formal living room, as well as the new gourmet kitchen, provide the first hint that you are about to be surprised and delighted by all this home has to offer.

Boasting a completely re-designed floor plan, this home now features incomparable entertaining space. New hardwood floors have been installed throughout most of the home. The living room features a wood-burning fireplace with new marble surround and new mantel. The dining room now showcases double pocket doors to the kitchen on one side and new French doors to the existing screen porch on the other. The screen porch offers access to an adjoining deck in the rear yard, which itself connects to the newly added family room. With rooms and outdoor spaces easily flowing from one to another, this is an entertainer's paradise.

The stunning, state-of-the-art gourmet kitchen features high-end appliances by Viking, including a wall-oven, five-burner cook-top, range hood, refrigerator and microwave. Delicious cream-colored cabinets sporting classic brushed metal pulls and self-closing drawers provide ample storage for all kitchen necessities.

A generously proportioned kitchen island with seating area for stools separates the kitchen from the adjacent family room, which features a gas line for an optional fireplace to be installed if so desired. French doors in the family room lead to a cleverly located (and spacious!) corner deck that overlooks the home's serene woodland setting and is nestled under the majestic canopy of towering trees A powder room and coat closet in the foyer complete the first floor.

The second floor boasts a master suite superior to any other you'll find in homes in this price range -- and even rival some well beyond! From the private balcony accessible via double French doors to the optional gas fireplace, this master bedroom is a blissful retreat from the hectic pace of the outside world. A spacious en-suite marble bath with separate shower, whirlpool tub and arched tub enclosure is a private spa in your own home. It also features a full-size washer and dryer (a second laundry room with washer/dryer hook-up is located in the lower level). Four separate closets all with built-in organizers assure that there is ample space for even the most demanding sartorial devotee. A private study with three exposures rounds out the master suite. Only accessible through the master suite, this bonus space can serve a variety of functions, whether that be as a home office, private library, nursery or even an exercise room.

The second floor also features wood floors throughout (barring the baths, of course), a second bedroom, and a classic hall bath with traditional black and white ceramic tile finish.

The top floor offers two additional bedrooms (both with built-in window seats) and a ceramic tile bath accented by a graceful arched window and a spacious double vanity.

The newly finished lower level provides uncommonly high ceiling height and features a spacious recreation room with available plumbing for an optional wet bar to be installed, if so desired. The rec room leads to an even larger room (potential media room) that touts French doors opening to the rear yard. Wall-to-wall carpeting throughout most of the lower level, which also features a ceramic-tile full bath, an attached garage and a mudroom with washer/dryer hook-ups (this is one of two laundry rooms in the home) and its own exterior access. The lower level was cleverly designed so that it could be converted into an in-law suite, if so desired.

Cleveland Park is one of the most desirable neighborhoods in the nation's capital. This tree-lined community was once the site of President Grover Cleveland's summer White House.

This central location is just a few blocks off Rock Creek Parkway, providing easy access to Maryland and Virginia, as well.
