About 2122 California St Nw #553
Looking for a home that’s as spectacular inside as it is on the outside? Renovated from head to toe, this gorgeous, old-world Kalorama 2 bedroom apartment speaks to an era of opulence. The elegant Westmoreland is a Beaux Arts Kalorama masterpiece, constructed in 1905 by architects Edgar S. Kennedy and Harry Blake. Featured in James Goode's "Best Addresses”, the building welcomes you home through a dramatic marble-clad lobby featuring intricate plasterwork and Corinthian columns. The current owner has painstakingly updated the unit throughout, keeping original details intact. With high ceilings, refinished heart of pine floors, a stunningly renovated kitchen and all new oversized windows, the gracious dimensions of this apartment place it apart from the rest. The primary bedroom is spacious and bright, and the second bedroom doubles as a formal dining space or office, with a beautiful Murphy bed and built-ins, perfect for when the guests stay. Open to the spacious living room with large pocket doors, it's an excellent layout. The staffed concierge desk and on-site management help manage mail, package delivery and building access. The view from the large roofdeck means you have an amazing perch for the fireworks across DC's monumental skyline - you can see straight past the Washington Monument to MD and VA! Parking, a large storage unit and bike storage make life easy. Don't miss your chance to reside in one of the city's chicest neighborhoods!
