The 2022 American Institute of Architects National Award-winning home, designed by renowned architect Robert M. Gurney, is among the most significant modern townhouses in America. The AIA Jury described the home as “A near-perfect marriage of history and contemporary, urban living. This design thoughtfully translates a compact historic house into a spacious, light-filled home with surprising celebrations of its history and foundations in almost archeological ways." Located in the heart of Georgetown’s quaint Book Hill section, the home features soaring ceiling heights throughout, floor to ceiling modern window systems and three full sized bedrooms upstairs with double-height ceilings. Wide planked sustainable Danish wood floors give the home a calming character, while multiple skylights illuminate the home's original brick and stack stone walls. The expansive kitchen features Miele appliances and oversized Silestone island. Bathrooms feature Boffi fixtures and Italian stone tiles. The bedrooms include custom built steel ladders that lead to a secret reading loft. The exterior addition of the home is clad in brick and copper, and opens to a large, lush garden featuring a dining terrace and artisanal built stack stone feature walls. The home has been featured in Washingtonian Magazine and has received several additional architectural awards and recognitions.
