$4,100,000 5537 HAWTHORNE PLACE NW, WASHINGTON, DC 20016
Nestled in Kent--one of Northwest DC's most coveted and picturesque enclaves--this exceptional four-level single-family residence masterfully balances grand architectural scale with an inviting sense of lived-in warmth. Designed by renowned architect Chryssa Wolfe of Hanlon Design Build, the approximately 6,500-square-foot home is a striking study in light, proportion, and elevated modern design. From the dramatic entry sequence and extensive custom hardscaping to the wide-plank blonde hardwood floors and walls of floor-to-ceiling glass, every detail has been thoughtfully curated to create a bright, refined, and timeless aesthetic.

The main level unfolds through expansive, sun-drenched living spaces framed by oversized windows that flood the interiors with natural light. At the heart of the home, a spectacular chef's kitchen is appointed with premium Wolf appliances, an oversized center island, and generous space--enough for multiple dining and living areas--equally suited for elegant entertaining and relaxed everyday living. Sophisticated finishes seamlessly connect each space, while two gas fireplaces provide warmth, intimacy, and architectural presence throughout. An integrated elevator services all four levels, offering exceptional comfort and convenience.

With seven generously scaled bedrooms and 5.5 baths, the home offers luxurious private retreats for both family and guests. The primary suite is a serene sanctuary, featuring expansive windows overlooking the front grounds and quiet, tree-lined street; and a spa-inspired bath anchored by a deep soaking tub designed for quiet relaxation. On the lower level, a dedicated wine cellar provides an ideal setting for collectors and entertainers alike.

Beyond the interiors, the rear grounds evoke a true resort-style escape. A heated in-ground pool is complemented by a fully equipped cabana and poolhouse, creating an extraordinary setting for summer entertaining and effortless outdoor living. The terrace extends naturally from the indoor spaces, allowing for a seamless transition to alfresco dining and lounging. Complete with an attached one-car garage and a four-car driveway, this remarkable Kent residence presents a rare opportunity to own a sophisticated, light-filled estate in the heart of the District.
