Property Description
Waddy Butler Wood. The home was fully renovated and virtually doubled in size in 2014 by the
renowned architectural firm of Cunningham and Quill. This seven-bedroom home embodies
both distinguished history and an abundance of warmth and charm. Seated on a quarter-acre
double lot, the property offers lush, mature landscaping and many beautiful trees, including tall
magnolias and huge crepe myrtles. This property has been lovingly restored and meticulously
maintained. It is being listed for sale for just the second time in more than fifty years.
A handsome front porch with stately columns leads into a bright and timeless interior filled with
historical details and modern amenities. The front door opens to a spacious foyer and broad
staircase, drenched in sun by a massive original Palladian window. Formal living and dining
rooms flank the foyer, both featuring original fireplaces and intricately carved pocket doors.
The main level includes a light-filled family room, breakfast room, balcony, and a chef’s kitchen
with stone countertops and appliances by Subzero, Wolf, and Bosch. Additional spaces on this
floor include a powder room, mudroom with built-in cubbies, and a butler’s pantry.
Upstairs, a cozy landing library with mahogany bookcases serves as the heart of the second
level. The bright primary suite features modern walk-in closets and a lovely marble bathroom,
while the other wing includes more pristine bedrooms and bathrooms. This level has 5
bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, offering plenty of versatility.
The lower level boasts a private study with mahogany built-ins. Across from the study, behind
pocket doors, is a media room with a custom home theater system by Deja Vu Audio which
includes restored vintage Western Electric amplifiers that provide warm and dynamic sound for
true audiophiles. Smart storage solutions abound, along with a farm sink, Subzero refrigerator
drawers and a laundry room featuring a large capacity Samsung washer and dryer. This level
also has another full bathroom and two additional sunlit bedrooms, one serving as a home gym.
French doors open to a stunning and private backyard oasis designed by Colao & Peter,
featuring hand-stacked stone, a firepit, and a beautiful saltwater pool and spa with copper-
spouted waterfalls. The pool is lined by magnificent limelight hydrangeas in summer. The pool
decks are flagstone on one side and grass on the other, creating a chic boutique hotel feel.
The property includes a smart irrigation system, security system with cameras, excellent HVAC,
a house-wide humidifier and whole-house water filtration. An original shed matches the house
and provides extra storage. A sturdy backyard fence with auto-shut gates makes the yard kid-
and dog-friendly. A red brick paver driveway echoes the neighborhood's charm. Every detail
reveals a house truly loved and meticulously maintained.
This home is deeded as a Designated Property Member of Rosedale Conservancy. This status
belongs to the houses immediately surrounding Rosedale and entrusts their owners with
certain important stewardship rights, including the power to elect the majority of Rosedale’s
governing board.
Though the neighborhood is quiet and tree-lined, it’s only a short walk to the National
Cathedral and its schools, John Eaton, the Macomb Street playground, and the many shops and
restaurants of both Connecticut Avenue and Wisconsin Avenue’s Cathedral Commons. Also
found within walking distance are Sidwell Friends School, the Cleveland Park Metro, City Ridge,
Cleveland Park library, and the National Zoo.
