1728 P St Nw, WASHINGTON

With its iconic green faade, premier end-unit positioning, and enviable address just one block from Dupont Circle, 1728 P Street NW stands as a distinguished chapter in Washington’s architectural legacy. Originally envisioned by J.S. Simmons and constructed by Cyrus Mantz in the late 19th century, this historic residence underwent a transformative full-gut renovation in 2016, unveiling 5,760 square feet of meticulously curated living space tailored to the modern connoisseur.
A stately stone staircase offers an elegant approach, setting the tone for the seamless interplay of Queen Anne and Richardsonian Romanesque design elements that define the home’s unmistakable presence. Inside, a dedicated vestibule with inlaid marble flooring leads to a reception hall adorned with Farrow & Ball wallpaper and a custom-integrated coat closet — a testament to thoughtful design at every turn.
Dark-stained hardwood flooring, recessed Legrand lighting, and 13-foot ceilings harmonize with Marvin windows that flood the interior with natural light, creating an atmosphere of refined grandeur. The formal living and dining rooms span a remarkable 34 feet, united by coffered ceilings, intricate wainscoting, and hand-carved wood-burning fireplaces. A bay window overlooks the vibrant streetscape, while a bespoke wet bar in the dining area elevates the home’s capacity for sophisticated entertaining.
At the heart of the home lies an open-concept informal living space, anchored by a chef’s kitchen featuring stacked custom cabinetry, a Monogram appliance suite, and a granite-topped island with integrated seating. Exposed wooden beams extend into the breakfast area, where Lillian August grasscloth wallpaper lends organic warmth. Adjacent, the sitting room with linear gas fireplace and automated shades transitions effortlessly onto an oversized and newly constructed 20'x20' covered terrace.
Designed for four-season enjoyment, this private outdoor oasis features turf flooring, a motorized 2024 installedStruxure Pergola X with adjustable louvers, Infratech heaters, ceiling fans, recessed lighting, built-in speakers, and a gas fire table — an unparalleled extension of indoor luxury.
Upstairs, the second level reveals three well-proportioned bedroom suites, each with en-suite baths, walk-in closets, designer wallpaper, and custom built-ins. The uppermost level is reserved primarily for the primary suite retreat, distinguished by a tray ceiling, a large balcony, dual California Closets, morning kitchen, and an exquisite spa bath appointed with checkered marble flooring, dual marble vanities, a classic clawfoot tub, and a glass-enclosed steam shower.
An additional bedroom on this level — adjacent to a large laundry room and a second covered terrace — is ideal as a home office, fitness studio, or guest suite. The room opens onto another large terrace surrounded by privacy fencing and architectural framing.
The lower level presents a fully independent in-law suite with a private entrance, full kitchen, bar seating, living area with Murphy bed, and a full bath — offering exceptional multigenerational versatility. A second laundry, full bath, game room, and wine cellar — complete with brick walls, tasting area, and display alcove — further enhance the home’s premium amenities.
Direct access to an attached two-car garage — a rarity in this coveted neighborhood — includes an EV charger and dedicated storage. The residence is comprehensively outfitted with smart home technology, including whole-home Sonos audio, real-time security monitoring, energy-efficient systems, and integrated fire sprinklers.
All four levels of the home are further connected by a wood paneled elevator installed as part of the 2016 renovation.
A visionary reimagining of a historic Dupont Circle residence, 1728 P Street NW seamlessly unites timeless architecture with contemporary luxury — a masterwork destined for its next iconic chapter in the heart of the Capital.
