Property Description

Welcome to 3804 Jenifer Street NW, a stately 1912 Adams Colonial Revival residence featuring a private elevator on one of Chevy Chases prettiest and most iconic streets. Designed by architect A.E. Landvoigt, who helped shape the neighborhoods character, this historic block has long been part of Washingtons social fabric, once hosting evenings where President Truman played poker and frequented by figures like John Kerry and John Lindsay. Rich in legacy, the home embodies the grandeur and architectural distinction of classic Washington living. A gracious covered front porch with fans, original fluted columns with carefully restored bases, and Brazilian hardwood flooring introduces the home with timeless elegance. The entry door is framed by classic leaded glass, echoed by matching glass in the dining room. Inside, 9-foot ceilings, original dark oak floors, crown molding, custom wood radiator covers, and preserved millwork highlight enduring craftsmanship. The formal living room boasts a beautifully carved original mantle with pillars mirroring the porch columns, surrounded by elegant green marble. Solid oak pocket doors connect the living and dining rooms, creating spaces both open and intimate for entertaining. At the rear, a stunning family room unfolds beneath 12-16-foot vaulted ceilings and dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the space with light. Built-in bookcases throughout the home add character and utility, including eight floor-to-ceiling cases in the family room/library. A distinctive sunburst window in the family room addition echoes the Palladian window at the front of the home, where a generous second-floor seating area overlooks the street. The adjacent kitchen is thoughtfully designed with white cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless appliances, glass tile backsplash, and a butlers pantry. A laundry area sits conveniently off the kitchen hallway. French doors lead to a beautifully designed outdoor setting featuring a Trex rear deck, bluestone slate terrace with a dedicated gas line, fire pit, and a lush garden of hydrangeas. The landscaped backyard is fully enclosed for privacy with access to the shared alley beyond. Potential for easy off-street parking with a rear fence alteration. Spanning six bedrooms and 4.5 baths, the residence offers remarkable flexibility. The second floor includes three spacious bedrooms and two full baths, along with the large seating area beneath the Palladian window. The extra-large primary suite features a walk-in closet and a beautifully appointed en-suite bath with double sinks, a soaking tub, and a glass-enclosed shower. Two additional large bedrooms and a hall bath complete this level. The top floor provides two more bedrooms, a full bath, and large storage eaves. The lower level includes a fully self-contained in-law suite with a private entrance, kitchen, living area, bedroom, and bath, ideal for guests or potential income. A standout feature is the large heated elevator added in 2022, servicing three floors (excluding the basement). Designed for accessibility while blending with the homes architecture, it provides practical convenience for transporting suitcases, equipment, and accommodating guests. Recent improvements include a newly lined/rebuilt fireproof fireplace, a new gas boiler, all new windows, and an updated HVAC system, ensuring modern efficiency while preserving historic integrity. The setting offers outstanding walkability, with Metro access and multiple bus routes just moments away. Enjoy effortless proximity to the boutiques and dining along Connecticut and Wisconsin Avenues, as well as neighborhood institutions like Politics and Prose and an array of acclaimed restaurants. Throughout 3804 Jenifer Street NW, preserved architectural elements reinforce a historic pedigree while delivering the scale and comfort expected today. A rare opportunity to own a residence of such stature in on one of Washingtons most distinguished streets.
