4830 Loughboro Rd NW, Washington, DC 20016

This beautiful contemporary residence is ideally located in the highly desirable Kent neighborhood. Set off the street on a large corner lot, the house captures an abundance of natural sunlight from impressive oversized windows and exposures on all sides. The house was originally designed in 1950 by an architect influenced by Frank Lloyd Wright and has since been renovated and expanded by architect Lloyd Jafvert. Jafvert also transformed the orientation of the residence so that the primary entrance could be from both Loughboro Road and Chain Bridge Road. The house features beautiful architectural details and a wonderful open floor plan, which is perfect for large-scale entertaining. There is an easy flow between the generously-scaled formal rooms on the main level and seamless transition from indoors to outdoors. One of the unique features of this home is the opportunity for MULTIGENERATIONAL LIVING. There is a very attractive private entrance to the left of the front door that opens to a generous suite. The suite offers a large living room with built-ins, a bedroom area, bathroom, kitchenette, and library. The dramatic entry foyer features double wooden doors and a lovely slate floor. It extends a visual invitation to the rear of the home, with sightline views through the gracious center hall and a glimpse of the formal dining room to the right. The sophisticated dining room has a tray ceiling and built-in serving station. It adjoins the formal living room, which offers a beautiful marble fireplace and windows overlooking the grounds. The updated gourmet chef’s kitchen is well-appointed with stainless steel appliances and a dual-sided central island. There is also abundant cabinetry storage, breakfast bar seating, and oversized grid-inspired windows, providing the space with remarkable natural sunlight. The kitchen opens to a breakfast room and then to a family room with an additional fireplace. There is a large bedroom suite and an additional bedroom with an en-suite bathroom completing this floor. The upper level was designed to showcase an exceptionally-scaled primary suite.
