Rarely available residence at the historic Downing & Vaux, ideally located in Georgetown’s coveted East Village. Designed in 1850 by renowned architects Andrew Jackson Downing and Calvert Vaux, this distinguished Italian Renaissance building offers timeless character paired with modern comfort. This expansive approximately 1,400 square foot condominium features soaring ceilings, original hardwood floors, and exceptional natural light throughout. The open and gracious layout includes a large living room with a wood-burning fireplace, flanked by custom built-in bookcases and extensive storage. The recently remodeled kitchen is both refined and functional, with ceiling-height white cabinetry, natural stone countertops and backsplash, and high-end stainless-steel Miele appliances. The dining area opens to a private, covered veranda overlooking mature trees, creating a peaceful extension of the living space and an ideal setting for outdoor dining or quiet mornings. The primary suite offers high ceilings, generous closet space, and an en suite bath. A spacious second bedroom, full hall bath, and in-unit laundry complete the comfortable and well-balanced floor plan. The Downing & Vaux community is pet-friendly and offers additional storage, bike room, and daily on-site janitorial services. Converted to condominiums in 1981, the building has been thoughtfully maintained to preserve its architectural integrity while supporting modern living. Unmatched East Village location just one block from neighborhood essentials including market, pharmacy, dry cleaner, dining, and public transportation. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a residence of scale, history, and elegance in one of Georgetown’s most desirable and enduring settings.
