Welcome to one of the historic homes designed
and built by artist, Ella Bennett Sherman, wife of John Sherman,
President of the Cleveland Park Company. Rarely does a home become
available with such charm, warmth, and historic beauty. A semi-detached
home, this property boasts all the amenities sought by discerning
buyers seeking a historic home. Lovingly maintained by the current
owner for over forty years, this home has hardwood floors, 9' ceilings,
pocket doors between the living room and dining room, a large bay
window in the living room, 10" baseboards in most rooms, fine
detailed millwork, and a beautiful third floors suite with skylights
and a private bath. The walkout basement has been updated to include
a powder room and home office with a "greenhouse" window.
The first floor and basement have central air conditioning and many
rooms have ceiling fans. The second floor back bathroom has been
updated with new ceramic floor tile but the lovely claw foot tub
remains as a reminder of the grace and elegance of the turn of the
century. The large front porch invites you to sit and have a drink
while you gaze at the mature trees and landscaping common in Cleveland
Park. The rear slate patio is perfect for dining and entertaining.
Convenient to shopping, Metro, Cleveland Park Library, and restaurants,
this home, with its spacious rooms and old world charm, may be just
the home you have been seeking.
