Opening that classic black lacquered screen door trimmed with a Chippendale accented detail, you know you have instantly arrived to this Southern charm classic with timeless black & white marble checkered floor leading your eyes up a beautiful sweeping curved wrought iron double atrium staircase. Gracious comfort exudes throughout this 13 room estate with that desirable southern exposure that allows natural sunlight to flood through the the endless windows outlining the incredible backyard. Equally as beautiful is the setting with a blue stone wrapped patio, lushly matured ground with ferns and tow paths all set on over 1.5 acres making this one of premier Woodley Road's largest lots. Step down to a beautiful formal living room with a stone Parisian fireplace & custom French doors that open up to the cozy sunroom with picturesque windows. Finely appointed dining room with Visual Comfort light fixture layered with de Gournay wallpaper, antique marble fireplace and another set of French doors open out to the bluestone patio and deep backyard.
