Open this Sunday, April 19th. 2-4 PM. NEW UPDATE: WASHER AND DRYER installed with two new electrical panels. Motivated sellers, all offers thoughtfully considered. Welcome to 4000 Cathedral Ave NW, located in the South main building at Apt. 848B and 849B. Spanning approximately 2,000 square feet, this exceptional top-floor residence offers breathtaking and ever-changing views, making it a truly inspiring place to call home—beautiful at any time of day or night. This spacious 2-bedroom, 2-bath unit features two winged suites—one facing southeast and the other southwest—positioned at one of the highest elevations in NW Washington. From any window, you can enjoy stunning vistas: the top of the Nation’s Capitol, the Washington Monument, Roslyn, the Potomac River, Alexandria, and Tysons Corner . Enter this end-unit through 848B, located at the hall’s end. The foyer divides each wing, inviting exploration of charming details like crown moldings and elegant Art Deco archways. Built-in bookshelves flank the opening, leading to a beautifully appointed galley kitchen featuring granite countertops, a stainless undermount sink, KitchenAid stainless dishwasher, GE Profile refrigerator, and a Jen-Air 4-burner gas range with oven. A Thermidor stainless exhaust hood and a view from the kitchen window provide inspiration for every culinary enthusiast. Adjacent to the kitchen, the foyer leads to either wing, offering versatile spaces for dining and relaxation. Each wing boasts large living rooms perfect for entertaining, along with large closets, freshly painted interiors, and stunning refinished parquet floors that enhance the light-filled ambiance. Both bedroom suites feature spacious walk-in closets, remote-controlled ceiling fans, and updated bathrooms with either a tub and shower combo or a walk-in shower. Modern chrome fixtures and timeless black-and-white ceramic tiles add to the bathroom’s elegance. This exceptional residence combines panoramic views, elegant details, and thoughtful updates—truly a special place in NW Washington. Situated on nearly 10 acres, the Westchester Co-op was built during the Great Depression & completed in 1931. As noted in many publications, it has extraordinary Art Deco classic features. You will be mesmerized by its charm of yesteryear and memories influenced by the roaring twenties, such as its metal-etched elevator doors, elegant archways, and plastered moldings. Notice the beautifully manicured grounds, gardens, brick and stone walkways, a center sunken fountain, and a Porte cochere in front of the main building. The Westchester boasts great amenities, including a market grocery store, a beauty parlor, a barber shop, a fitness center(in the process of a renovation update), dry cleaning/Valet service. All of the buildings at 4000 Cathedral Ave. are connected by ground-floor hallways, making it extremely convenient to get around, regardless of the weather. Plus, there's an underground reserved parking garage with a short waiting list, extra storage options, and guest rooms available for friends and family visiting you! For a coop mortgage approval, you'll need a minimum of 15% down, and we can provide a list of approved lenders if you need it. Public transportation is available, with the Metro bus stop located right in front of the building on Cathedral Avenue, and the Tenleytown Metro station is approximately a mile away. Other conveniences include: Whole Foods, Wegmans, Safeway, CVS, a vast selection of local ethnic restaurants, boutiques, the historic grounds of the National Cathedral, and many other places of worship. Feel free to reach out to the listing agent with any questions you may have or to set up a time on Showingtime or agent for access through the main lobby to the left toward south main front desk. Please note desk hours are often limited on the weekends. Please call after normal business hours at any of the entrances for access.
