Description
An incredible opportunity for one of the most dazzling Washington, DC estates to ever hit the market. Brand new and never lived with furnishings that convey. Inspired by the great renaissance style mansions built at the turn of the century in Northwest Washington, Palazzo Della Felicita is an extraordinary limestone home embracing nearly 17,000 finished square feet of luxurious living space. The first impression is breathtaking with a grand foyer featuring a bifurcated staircase soaring beneath a magnificent domed ceiling reminiscent of the Pantheon in Rome. The estate is designed to accommodate grand scale entertaining and multiple configurations of living and working spaces which makes it function perfectly as a state of the art luxury residence for high profile families including ambassadors, multiple generations, or quite simply anyone seeking a serene and secure best address home in Northwest Washington. The builders added every conceivable amenity with 2 full kitchens, 11 bedrooms, 12 full bathrooms, 5 half bathrooms and detached limestone guest and pool house. Each of the four levels of the main residence is accessible by multiple stairways and an elegant marble elevator. Countless luxurious design details create a true city oasis with a double height living room featuring a 14ft limestone fireplace and french doors that open to the rear grounds, 2 room walnut library, 5,000 bottle wine cellar and lower level wellness center with steam room, dry sauna, jacuzzi, massage room and gym. Additional spectacular features include the sparkling designer kitchen with top of the line Italian cabinetry and professional Italian made gas range, first floor bedroom suite, custom closets in every room with over the top walk in closets in the second floor primary suite, furnished home theatre, game room, hidden safe room, fourth level entertaining terrace with fireplace and a one of a kind in ground garage for up to 11 cars with electric vehicle chargers, automatic private security door and cameras. Located in Forest Hills, one of the most sought after neighborhoods in Washington DC, this magnificent limestone estate is only minutes to the White House, embassy row, the vibrancy of downtown, Chevy Chase and Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. All offers considered and there is a brand new rental opportunity at $55,000 per month with incentives for prepayments.
