4814 Kemble Place Nw

Property Description

SOLD! Synonymous with quiet luxury and understated elegance, Kemble Place is one of Washington’s most sought-after private enclaves. Nestled within this exclusive community, 4814 Kemble Place occupies a rare double lot, (encompassing both 4814 and 4816 Kemble Place) creating a private outdoor oasis that includes a pool, pool house and separate studio/guest house and office. The residence is an update on classic architecture, blending timeless principles with modern livability. Its façade nods to the grand estates of the past while incorporating contemporary elements, creating an unmistakable presence. A dramatic, offset entry introduces the home through a transverse limestone gallery, where a formal powder room and coat closet are discreetly tucked away. Natural light pours into the living spaces through elegant casement windows, highlighting substantial millwork and thoughtful architectural detailing. The sweeping custom designed staircase, floating above a dramatic picture window, aligns beautifully with the formal living room. Anchored by an English limestone fireplace and framed by a balcony overlooking the streetscape, it exudes both scale and refinement. Adjacent, the stately dining room flows into a bay-windowed breakfast room with built-in cabinetry, connecting to the kitchen. At the heart of the expansive grounds behind the main residence is a 40’ X 20’ pool with integrated spa, finished in bluestone and equipped with an automatic cover. The adjacent pool house opens via NanaWall to an al fresco lounge and long wet bar and features a full bath, garden shed and work room. A separate guest house with kitchenette and full bath separated from the pool house by double pergola covered terraces complete the private retreat—one that belies the home’s close-in location. Wine cellar, gym & steam shower are just a few of the special amenities. Minutes from Georgetown, Downtown, and major commuter routes, 4814 Kemble Place stands as an exemplary residence at the pinnacle of Washington living.
