Public Open Houses 8/29 & 8/30 from 1-3PM. Coming Soon and photos on the way! For now a sneak peek. Set on a richly landscaped property in the heart of AU Park, 4811 Albemarle Street offers exceptional space, flexibility and a substantial three-story addition that expands this classic home for modern living. Generously proportioned rooms, four bedrooms and three full baths on the upper level, multiple gathering spaces and a beautifully landscaped rear yard create a home with room to live, work, entertain and grow. A wide staircase and center hall introduce the main level, with a gracious living room opening through pocket doors to a step-down family room overlooking the rear garden. Built-in storage and a media cabinet make this an inviting everyday gathering space, while large windows bring the landscaped setting indoors. Across the foyer, the spacious dining room features built-ins and a fireplace and flows directly into the expanded kitchen and breakfast room. The kitchen is designed around a generous granite island and offers abundant cabinetry, pantry storage, under-cabinet lighting, recessed lighting and updated appliances. A sunny breakfast room with a bay window provides a natural spot for casual meals and views of the garden. A powder room completes this level. Upstairs, the scale of the home continues with four generously sized bedrooms and three full baths. The spacious primary suite includes an ensuite bath and walk-in closets. A second bedroom has its own private bath, while two additional bedrooms share the hall bath. From the upper hallway, stairs lead to a large unfinished walk-up attic offering exceptional storage and future possibilities. The lower level adds another dimension to the home, with a large guest suite that includes a kitchen, full bath and separate exterior entrance, providing excellent flexibility for guests, extended stays, an office or a possible fifth bedroom. A step-down media room and additional storage space complete the level. Outside, the fenced rear yard feels like a private retreat. Extensive professional landscaping, a brick patio, stained cedar fencing and an irrigation system create a wonderful setting for outdoor dining, gardening and entertaining. Thoughtful updates add comfort and efficiency, including newer Lennox heating and cooling systems, a 2022 roof, 19-panel solar installation, a whole-house Kohler generator, newer windows in portions of the home and updated appliances. The original brick residence is complemented by the HardiePlank-clad addition, creating a home that combines traditional AU Park character with considerably expanded living space. All of this is set in one of upper Northwest Washington's most convenient residential neighborhoods, with easy access to Tenleytown, Friendship Heights and Spring Valley for Metro, shopping, dining, schools, parks and everyday conveniences. 4811 Albemarle Street is a rare opportunity for substantial space, a beautiful garden setting and remarkable flexibility in the heart of AU Park. Open Houses Saturday and Sunday August 29 & 30 from 1-3pm.
