Rarely does an acre of land become available in one of Washington's most blue-chip, insulated neighborhoods. Offered as a combined package at $6,890,000 or individually as the existing residence at $3,895,000 and the two adjacent parcels at $2,995,000, this assemblage represents one of the most significant development and estate opportunities in the city. The existing home is a stately European-inspired red-brick residence from the 1930s with a striking turret, original fireplaces, exposed beam ceilings, leaded glass windows, and five bedrooms across five levels with an attached two-car garage. A collaboration between BarnesVanze Architects and CAS Engineering has produced a comprehensive feasibility study with full zoning analysis, site engineering, 3D models, floor plans, and color renderings for multiple development scenarios. The heavy lifting has been done. The recommended program calls for two residences: Lot A expanding the existing home to approximately 7,000 to 8,000 square feet, and Lot B as a new ground-up estate targeting approximately 15,000 to 17,000 square feet with curated outdoor living and security. Both scenarios are entirely by-right under current zoning. One block away, HEIDER represented the sale of a then eight-year-old residence that closed at a number that defined the ceiling of the Washington luxury market at the time. With the right program, this assemblage presents a comparable opportunity to create and capture value at the highest level the city's residential market has to offer.

Branching off the prestigious Chain Bridge Road NW is a hidden private drive. The hedge-lined path meanders through verdant foliage to reveal a walled, circular pea gravel motor court upon which sits an elegant estate home. Evoking cues from the most vaunted European country homes, part Tuscan villa and part French provincial, the estate was created from the ground up by its visionary owner-developer. Constructed out of cinder block with thick walls and a recently refinished triple-coat stucco exterior, the home is a true fortress of luxury. Stepping beneath the lofty portico and through arched double doors reveals the grand gallery, spanning the entire depth of the home. Hand-painted in a striking faux green finish by British artist Malcolm Robson to complement refinished herringbone floors, it sets the tone for the formal spaces. Soaring 11-foot ceilings, 8-foot solid mahogany doors, and elaborate P.E. Guérin hardware, including custom windows with crémone fittings, are testaments to the level of detail throughout. The formal living room boasts custom plaster crown molding and an 18th-century French limestone fireplace mantle. Spanning 32 feet, it opens onto the rear terrace via twin sets of French doors. A 19th-century French marble fireplace mantle anchors the formal dining room, enhanced by mahogany paneling and Braquenié curtains in the La Rivière Enchantée pattern. Recently expanded, the chef’s kitchen is divided into prep and cooking areas: one traditional, the other contemporary. Viking, Sub-Zero, Miele, and Gaggenau appliances represent top-of-the-line offerings, including six burners. A mahogany breakfast room completes the main level. A vestibule leads to the upper-level primary wing. The bedroom features a raised pearl white ceiling and 18th-century Braquenié Le Grand Génois floral-patterned padded walls. The bath offers checkered marble floors, dual vanities, a jetted soaking tub, walk-in shower, and separate water closet. A wraparound dressing room with built-ins and track lighting completes the suite. Two additional ensuite bedrooms are uniquely styled. The large lower-level recreation room opens through three sets of French doors to a parklike rear lawn. The exterior features a covered flagstone terrace, central lawn, al fresco dining area, and a custom stone pond set against a pergola with lattice fencing. Privacy is enhanced by a bamboo enclosure. A fourth bedroom with kitchenette and full bath can serve as a suite, with laundry and storage nearby. HVAC systems include a 2023 Carrier unit for the main and lower levels, and a heat pump for the upper level. The hot water heater was replaced in 2024. A central vacuum system and new main-level glazing further enhance comfort. Across the motor court is a separate carriage house with an inlaid cobblestone entrance, three-car garage, workshop, storage space, and trash room. Upstairs, the guest suite includes a kitchenette, full bath, living area, washer/dryer, dedicated HVAC, and private terrace. Passionately designed, meticulously crafted, and situated in one of Washington’s most coveted enclaves, 2740 Chain Bridge Road NW is more than an estate, it is a masterwork of timeless European elegance and enduring architectural integrity. Rarely does a residence so completely embody privacy, provenance, and purpose. This is a home for the discerning few, a legacy property that will continue to inspire for generations to come.

Synonymous with architectural charm and timeless appeal, the grand homes of Wesley Heights are among Washington’s most desirable. Within this verdant enclave lies 2927 44th Street NW, a European-inspired Tudor originally constructed in 1927. Perfectly sited just above street level on a private double corner lot of nearly half an acre, the residence combines historic character with thoughtful modern updates implemented beautifully by Solis Betancourt. A brick walkway meanders through the manicured front lawn, traversing a brick retaining wall upon which a neatly-trimmed row of hedges sits. The residence, with its gables, dormers, and cream stucco exterior, exudes the quintessential Tudor charm. The main entrance is located off a cozy brick patio beneath a petite portico, opening to reveal 5,100 square feet of ethereal interiors. The foyer introduces bright wood floors, sleek recessed lighting, and the grand staircase with an artful wrought iron baluster. Designed for large-scale entertaining, the formal living room spans 27 feet in depth and features a roaring wood burning fireplace framed by two sets of French doors elegantly opening onto the rear terrace to introduce an al fresco lifestyle. A sunroom is tucked away, with large picture windows overlooking the front grounds and a wall of built-ins for a quiet reading nook. Likewise, another sunroom is attached to the embassy-sized formal dining room, ideal as a private office. At the heart of the home’s informal wing is an open concept kitchen and family room. The former balances form and function with cathedral ceilings, granite counters, ample cabinetry, and top-of-the-line appliances from Thermador and SubZero. The latter features soaring vaulted and beamed ceilings with skylights, augmenting open sightlines to the rear patio via glass doors. A discreet wing contains a full main level bedroom suite. The upper level primary suite is entered via a dedicated vestibule within its own wing. A private sitting area is flooded with natural light. Ubiquitous luxuries include a gallery-like walk-in closet lined with built-ins and a marble bath with dual vanities, soaking tub, and heated towel rack for a sanctuary of comfort. Two additional bedrooms are located on the opposite side of the upper level, each with built-ins, expansive windows, and ensuite baths. On the loft level above is a fifth bedroom suite and attached bonus room. A sixth bedroom, ideal for an au pair or in-law suite, is found on the lower level in addition to a full bath and generous laundry room. A practical driveway runs along the side of the home, leading to the carport, motor court, and a detached room which serves as an exemplary fitness center, yoga studio, or zen space. Evoking cues of the Cotswolds with its yellow pebble paths and geometric greenery, the rear lawn, designed by Katia Goffin, was celebrated in Home & Design Magazine, exemplifying a seamless blend of hardscape and horticultural artistry. An elevated brick patio surrounds the heated lap pool, from which a sweeping view of the masterful grounds can be captured. Without peer in terms of location, the home is less than half a mile from Foxhall Square, 1.5 miles from the vibrant establishments of the Palisades’ main street, and just over two miles to Georgetown. Gracefully uniting timeless design, luxurious amenities, and extraordinary grounds, 2927 44th Street NW is a historic Tudor reimagined for modern living.
