About this home
Beautifully sited on one of the premier locations in Georgetown’s West Village, overlooking Volta Park and moments from neighborhood favorites, the setting offers both openness and accessibility—an increasingly rare combination. This exceptional Georgetown residence has been in the same family for nearly 90 years—purchased just a few years after its construction in 1936. Built in the Federal style, the house embodies the grace, proportion, and solidity of pre-war architecture while offering the scale and features that define a truly coveted Georgetown home. Throughout the home, original materials and craftsmanship remain beautifully intact—hardwood floors, plaster walls, and refined architectural details that speak to the quality of its construction. Over the years, the house has been home to notable figures, including Philip Bracken Fleming, a Major General in the U.S. Army and one of the Roosevelt and Truman administration’s most trusted public servants. His residence here reflects the home’s longstanding connection to individuals of significance and service.
A light-filled entry hall sets the tone of the house, opening to a stunning dining room with two exposures overlooking Volta Park. This is a remarkable space—defined by sky and green, with an unusually low horizon line that creates both openness and privacy.
Several years ago, the owners thoughtfully opened the dining room to the kitchen, enhancing both light and flow. The layout offers flexibility, but can be easily restored to a more formal, separate dining room if desired. At the rear of the house is an extraordinary drawing room of rare scale, with nearly 11-foot ceilings and grand proportions that allow for multiple seating areas. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the space, while French doors and large west-facing windows bring in exquisite afternoon light. These doors open to a wide and deep garden—beautifully enclosed and reminiscent of a “secret garden.” A brick terrace provides a natural transition for outdoor dining and entertaining, while a gate at the rear leads to the spacious garage.
The second floor is anchored by a generously scaled primary suite with ensuite bath. Like the drawing room below, the room benefits from high ceilings and dual exposures, offering beautiful light and sweeping sky views over the garden. Two additional bedrooms on this level are bright and well-proportioned, along with a hall bath, all enjoying views of Volta Park. The top floor offers a charming attic bedroom with dormers and large windows, along with excellent storage and additional closets. The lower level includes a guest suite with natural light and an ensuite bath, as well as a large laundry room with direct access to the street. Utility and storage spaces are equally generous and well-organized....
