About this home
With the bold inscription "Cedere Numquam" (Never Give Up) carved in stone above the front door, this striking Tudor-style home invites you into a world of timeless elegance and thoughtful design. Originally built in 1923 and expanded with care, it seamlessly blends classic architecture with modern additions and design.
Perched on a quiet cul-de-sac above Sligo Creek Park, the stone-and-stucco exterior is enhanced by welcoming stone walkways and sculptural metal railings by Barton Rubenstein. A custom wood door opens to reveal a dramatic great room with a 20-foot beamed ceiling, a stone fireplace, a floating glass display wall by Renwick curator Michael Monroe, and soaring atrium windows framing the private garden terrace.
The banquet-sized dining room features a coffered ceiling with a custom crest of The Order of the Garter, a nod to tradition that echoes the home's enduring character. The adjacent kitchen offers granite countertops, ample cabinetry, and a breakfast area that flows into the cozy family room with an 1800s Great Western cast iron parlor stove.
The main-level owner's suite is a true retreat, with two oversized walk-in closets, two beautifully appointed full baths, and a grand bed chamber with French doors leading to the terrace. A second office or nursery adds flexibility with an additional walk-in closet.
All baths on the main level feature high-end Italian fixtures, and the owner's suite baths have heated floors & enormous walk-in showers.
On the upper level, a reading balcony/lounge overlooks the great room, alongside three additional bedrooms—including a suite with sitting room/den—and two full baths. Two spaces have built-in window seats, and the 3rd bedroom features built-in furniture. The lower level provides space for hobbies, storage, and access to the deep 2-car garage and elevator.
Recent updates include fresh interior and exterior paint, refinished hardwood floors, new carpet, and updated lighting. A whole-house generator is also installed. See Disclosures for additional information on systems and receipts.
The terraces and gardens, accessed through the great room, owner's suite, and family room, provide views and shade from the towering Japanese maple tree with its ever-changing colors. Privacy abounds, with access to Sligo Creek Park from a corner of the yard. A sprawling front lawn greets guests with an impressive approach and offers plenty of play space both front and back.
Walkable to Zinnia and convenient to Metro, buses, and I-495, this timeless home offers rare character, comfort, and presence—ready for its next chapter.
