This private residence is sited on over half an acre in the sought-after Forest Hills neighborhood and within walking distance to the shops, restaurants, and the metro in Cleveland Park. It features five bedrooms, plus two additional standalone guest suites, which are ideal for multigenerational living, home offices, art studios or wellness/gym spaces. The home is surrounded by lush landscaping and mature trees and provides a harmonious blend of tranquil seclusion and city accessibility, embodying the natural beauty and quiet appeal that make the neighborhood so distinctive. Set back from the street, a sweeping gray brick driveway leads to a two-car attached garage and introduces the home with understated style and elegance. Inside, the foyer opens to an expansive living room with beamed ceilings, a stone fireplace, and French doors that open to an oversized deck, filling the room with natural light. The elevated outdoor space provides a serene setting for both quiet relaxation and hosting guests, with panoramic views of the treetops and surrounding landscape. Inside, the main level is thoughtfully designed for seamless everyday living and social gatherings. The gourmet kitchen features stainless steel appliances, including a five-burner stove, double ovens, custom cabinetry, and large windows. It opens directly to a second deck, enhancing the connection between indoor comfort and outdoor beauty. A separate dining room, framed by tall ceilings and built-in shelves, provides an inviting setting for formal gatherings. Also on this level is a study lined with built-in bookshelves and access to the rear yard and deck. A secluded wet bar off the living room adds a thoughtful touch for entertaining. Upstairs, the primary suite presents a peaceful retreat with high ceilings, a large walk-in closet, and views that evoke a forest hideaway. The spa-like bathroom includes a soaking tub, frameless glass shower, and dual vanities. Three additional bedrooms are located on this level, two of which feature lofted alcoves for additional sleeping or storage space, as well as private balconies. These bedrooms are served by two well-appointed full bathrooms. The lower level includes a fifth bedroom with a fireplace, full bathroom, and walks out to the landscaped gardens. A generous recreation room with built-in shelving and another fireplace is bathed with natural light from French doors that open onto a stone terrace. The level also includes a spacious laundry room with a sink and cabinetry. This home offers great flexibility with two separate guest or in-law suites. One suite, located off the lower level with a private entrance, includes a kitchen, full bathroom, living room, and its own deck. The second is above the garage, featuring tall ceilings, skylights, and the same full living amenities. Outside, the grounds are a sanctuary. The layered landscaping enhances privacy, while a peaceful lily pond and tree-lined views from many rooms deepen the sense of escape. With multiple decks and gathering areas, the home is perfectly suited for both intimate evenings and larger-scale entertaining. Ideally located blocks north of Cleveland Park and adjacent to Rock Creek Park, Forest Hills offers a unique combination of natural beauty, cultural access, and commuter convenience. Residents enjoy proximity to the Hillwood Estate and Gardens, the National Zoo, and top public and independent schools, along with easy Metro access to downtown DC. This extraordinary property is a unique find, offering the rare opportunity to own a private compound in the heart of Washington, D.C.
