About this home
Impeccably restored and reimagined for modern luxury, this grand four-story residence offers approximately 5000 square feet of exceptional living space in the heart of Logan Circle. Seamlessly blending historic craftsmanship with state-of-the-art design, 1514 R Street NW stands as a rare example of timeless architecture renewed for contemporary life.
Step inside to discover elegant details throughout, including restored original wood paneling, pocket doors, and reclaimed heart pine floors. The main level features gracious living and dining rooms—each with working fireplaces and marble hearths—and a designer kitchen by Jennifer Gilmer Kitchens with custom cabinetry, JennAir appliances, and French steel doors opening to a glass deck for seamless indoor-outdoor living.
Six fireplaces, including a gas fireplace in the primary bathroom, add warmth and charm throughout. Upstairs, the private quarters showcase original mosaic tile flooring, Rohl Apothecary fixtures, and a Kingston Brass clawfoot tub. A convenient second-floor laundry and beautifully restored stairway railings complement the home’s period elegance.
The lower level offers a second full kitchen with GE Café appliances, travertine flooring, and a second laundry area—perfect for guests, extended family, or rental income. Thoughtfully designed with exposed brick walls, arched brick doorways, and a light well that fills the space with natural light, the lower level combines warmth, character, and functionality. Outside, two secure parking spaces with an electric roll-up door and EV charger complete the offering.
Every inch of the home has been rebuilt with all new HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and sprinkler, along with tankless water heaters and all new energy-efficient windows. With six French steel doors, restored original details, and modern craftsmanship at every turn, this residence perfectly balances historic character and 21st-century luxury.
Located just steps from Logan Circle, 14th Street dining, and Dupont Circle, 1514 R Street NW delivers the ultimate in refined urban living.
