Ward, principal in the highly acclaimed architecture firm Vosbeck-Ward. The Living Room was added as a seamless expansion in 1987 by Joan Fabry of Fabry Associates Architects. Situated atop a hill to take full advantage of sunsets and tree-lines, the residence also features tall ceilings , exceptional indoor/outdoor flow, and naturally sunlit interiors."
Located in the heart of D.C.’s Kent neighborhood, the boxy brick home is wrapped in pink and green panels. Cantilevered terraces foster indoor/outdoor living.
The lower level holds a spacious fitness room with free weights and workout machinery.
Upstairs, an open layout connects the living areas to a fully remodeled kitchen.
Exposed brick walls complement the home’s original wood ceilings and beam construction.
The primary suite on the upper level comes with a spacious tiled bath and walk-in closet. A light-filled office with direct outdoor access is located down the hall.
