3 Sold Luxury Residences in Washington, DC’s Premier Enclaves

In Washington, DC’s Kemble Place, a private enclave known for quiet luxury and understated elegance, 4814 Kemble Place unfolds across a rare double lot encompassing both 4814 and 4816. The result is a genuinely private outdoor oasis: a pool, pool house, and a separate studio/guest house with an office create a setting that feels worlds away while remaining within the city. Life here naturally drifts outdoors, from unhurried afternoons by the pool to evenings that extend into the pool house, with flexible space in the studio for work or hosting. The residence is described as an update on classic design, underscoring a tone of refinement rather than display. It’s the kind of address where privacy, space, and everyday ease come together in a calm, composed rhythm.

On a tree-lined street in Woodley Park, this rare semi-detached residence pairs historic character with thoughtful updates and everyday ease. Natural light pours in from three sides, amplified by three skylights, while original wood floors and moldings ground the main level in classic detail. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the living area, and an open main-level floor plan flows comfortably between a spacious family room area and a galley kitchen—well-suited to entertaining. Recent improvements include a new AC system and extensive rear upgrades such as reinforced foundation work, new windows, and new siding. Upstairs, three generous bedrooms and two full baths create a calm, private retreat. The finished lower level—fully dug out for ample ceiling height—adds a den or fourth bedroom, a third full bath, and laundry/storage. Outside, enjoy a flagstone walkway, front porch, brick paver patio, raised deck, and parking. Steps from Metro, restaurants, shops, and the National Zoo, life here feels quietly connected.
