Perched elegantly above the street with views of Glover-Archbold Park, this beautifully maintained home in Wesley Heights is a quintessential example of Cape Cod architecture, blended seamlessly with Colonial Revival influences. With its steep roofline, dormered second story, and classic brick construction, 2916 New Mexico Avenue NW offers a timeless aesthetic that’s both stately and welcoming. Inside, you’ll find four bedrooms—plus a finished loft—and three and a half baths spread over four levels measuring more than 3, 600 square feet of finished living space. Hardwood floors throughout, two fireplaces, smart home automation, newly remodeled kitchens and baths, numerous systems upgrades and countless other improvements totaling over $600, 000 (a full list is available) make this home a turnkey, style-savvy tribute to mid-century design, thoughtfully adapted for modern living. On the main level, you'll enter a cozy foyer that leads to a fully renovated kitchen on one side and a welcoming living room with gas fireplace on the other. The circular flow of the main level takes you from a delicious dinner off the gorgeous open kitchen, to cocktails or conversation in the living room, on to board games or a movie in the back sunroom and a game of fetch and relaxing with family and friends in the beautifully landscaped backyard, complete with built-in gas grill. There is also a half bath and stacked laundry on the main level. Upstairs, three spacious bedrooms and two renovated full baths include a primary suite with a large walk-in closet/dressing room and a primary bath featuring dual sinks and radiant floor heating. A finished loft on the top floor makes for a perfect home office, playroom, or arts nook. The fully finished basement offers a complete living area for in-laws, an au pair, or guests, with a full kitchen, large living area with a wood-burning fireplace, a full bath, a separate bedroom, a laundry room, and a workroom/additional storage area. Without guests, the basement can be easily repurposed into an in-home gym or office. The driveway offers convenient off-street parking. This fantastic Wesley Heights residence is within bounds of highly rated Horace Mann Elementary and Hardy Middle School, minutes from many of the city’s best private schools, and less than a 10-minute drive to dozens of embassies and Georgetown University.
