Contemporary, Mid-Century Modern

Renovated mid-century modern condo in the heart of Rosslyn with stunning monument/city views and two indoor parking spaces. The Prospect House, designed by architect Donald Hudson Drayer, is featured in James Goode’s seminal book on DC’s “Best Addresses” and offers ground-breaking modernist design with captivating views of Washington and prime, convenient location. The 2 bed/2 bath 1,398-square-foot airy and light-filled space features dramatic living room with 13-foot ceilings and full wall of glass looking out to the expansive private balcony and those monument views. The Prospect House is not your standard vanilla condo. From the folded-plate porte-cochère to the preserved mid-century lobby, the building would feel at home in Los Angeles or Palm Springs. One of the unique designs of the building is that the units are open on both sides (east and west exposure) to let air and light flow through. The design of the unit places the entrance on the 5th floor with an entranceway and sizable closet. Steps then drop down to reveal the soaring living room and view out the wall of glass and huge walls to display your modern art. The living room and dining room have original parquet floors and the renovated kitchen and bathrooms are clad in ceramic tile. The high-end open kitchen features extensive storage and stainless-steel appliances. The renovated hall bathroom has a soaking tub while the primary ensuite bathroom has a glass-enclosed shower clad with ceramic and glass tile and sitting bench. In addition to the renovated bathrooms and kitchen, all the glass and HVAC convectors have been updated. The monthly condo fee covers all utilities, heated outdoor pool, exercise room and 24-hour reception/security, storage as well as trash, snow removal, landscaping and all exterior maintenance, among other items. The on-site convenience store and cleaners add to the easy lifestyle. Perched on a hill on a direct axis with the National Mall and just above the Iwo Jima Memorial and Netherlands Carillion, the Prospect House is just minutes to the Rosslyn Metro, the shopping and restaurants in Clarendon, National Airport, Georgetown, Rock Creek Park and Foggy Bottom.
