• Remarks Public: Want to own the best home in Cleveland Park, this one has it all. Profiled by PBS as the "dream home" in Cleveland Park"! This remarkable home underwent a complete transformation, with the original structure gutted, expanded - doubled, reconfigured, and redesigned by acclaimed interior designer Barry Dixon. The result is an unparalleled living experience both indoors and outdoors - plus there is a two car garage and room to add a pool! Upon entering, the sheer scale and impeccable design of the home become immediately apparent. The main floor offers a seamless flow, featuring an office, a spacious living room, a dining room, and an expansive top-of-the-line kitchen that effortlessly opens to the family room. Additionally, a mudroom and powder room add to the convenience of this level. This entire home from sound and security to lights, thermostat, and more may all be controlled by phone. Ascending to the upper floor reveals 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and a laundry area. The owner's suite is a true marvel, boasting two walk-in closets, an additional closet, and a stunning bathroom with an extra-large shower, a beautiful bathtub, and a separate water closet. The lower level is a revelation in itself, shockingly spacious and cleverly designed. This dug-out level was more than doubled in size to create a gym, a theater, a playroom, a powder room, and an entire apartment with an open kitchen/living room combination, a full bath, another laundry facility, and a gigantic bedroom with a walk-in closet. Outdoor amenities abound, with a 2-car garage and parking for at least 5 more cars, a front porch featuring a charming swing, and a two-level large trex deck in the back equipped with irrigation for plants and a gas line. The property is completed by a large, flat, grassy backyard, offering a perfect retreat for outdoor enjoyment. There is even a large fig tree! Conveniently located in a prime area just a short stroll from the Cleveland Park Metro, National Cathedral, Adas Israel Congregation, Cathedral Commons, Cleveland Park Club & pool, the new Hearst outdoor pool, wonderful restaurants and hip bars, local shopping, and local schools such as the Washington International School, John Eaton Elementary School, St Albans, The Cathedral School, and Sidwell Friends. With 3212 Porter Street, you can enjoy the home of your dreams in one of DC's most sought-after neighborhoods.
