5000 Overlook Rd NW, Washington, DC 20016

OH's cancelled; ratified contract. This is a special house, ideally positioned on one of the most desirable blocks in Spring Valley. Overlook is a wide, tree‑lined street with limited through‑traffic, offering a peaceful setting and wonderful curb appeal. The home sits at one of the higher points on the street, enhancing both privacy and natural light. Renovated in 2020–2021 by Third Street Architecture, the house shines with abundant light, thoughtful design, and a terrific floor plan. It is approximately 4,183sf (public record)/3,400sf (floor plan), with five bedrooms and four full baths across three levels. During the renovation, the foyer was widened and its ceiling was newly vaulted, creating an impressive entry. The kitchen was opened to the dining room and family room, and the ceiling in the dining/family room — already vaulted — was integrated into the new design. Wood floors were added in the kitchen and dining rooms. The result is an ideal blend of everyday comfort and excellent entertaining flow. Doors from the kitchen to the terrace and between the family room and living room allow for seamless indoor/outdoor living. The main level offers two distinct living spaces: a family room and a living room, the latter featuring one of the home’s three fireplaces. The living room also includes walnut built‑in bookshelves. The kitchen features quartz countertops, a custom wood cap detail, an island that seats four, and stainless steel appliances—all updated since purchase. The dining room includes a fireplace, skylights, and additional built‑in storage. The bedroom wing on this level includes the serene primary suite with two walk‑in closets, an additional closet, and an oversized bath with a soaking tub, separate shower, water closet, generous storage, and ample vanity space. A second bedroom, hall bath, linen closet, and two front hall closets complete this level. The second floor offers two additional bedrooms with leafy, private views, a full hall bath, and substantial attic storage. The lower level was completely rebuilt during the renovation and now includes a gym, a fifth bedroom/bath suite, a family room, and a laundry room. The home features a large two‑car garage with extra storage space, built‑in cabinets, a workbench, an additional refrigerator, and room for numerous bicycles. A new, well‑insulated garage door and motor were installed during the renovation. The driveway provides ample off‑street parking. The roof is primarily new slate (2024), and all windows and exterior doors were replaced with Sierra Pacific / Andersen products. Additional upgrades include a sprinkler/irrigation system, encapsulated crawl space, and refinished dark oak floors throughout, which are in excellent condition. Earlier improvements (2013) include new siding, gutters, skylights, and the lower‑level bathroom. Outdoor spaces offer multiple areas to relax, dine, or entertain, with a gas grill conveniently located just outside the kitchen. Walk to Millie’s, Pizzeria Paradiso, Starbucks, Compass Coffee, and more.
