Introducing the newly renovated Trentman House in Georgetown’s East Village. This historic 4-story home preserves its original mid-century modern details while incorporating the latest conveniences and climate protection. The new chef’s kitchen is a culinary delight, equipped with Miele and Sub-Zero appliances and sleek white countertops. Bathrooms have been upgraded with elegant Spanish porcelain tiles and frameless glass enclosures, ensuring both style and comfort. Perfect for entertaining, the 2nd floor dining room flows through the living room and onto the landscaped private terrace oasis with a pond and waterfall. The 3rd and 4th floors feature three spacious en-suite bedrooms. There are two additional fully updated powder rooms on the 1st and 2nd floors. The network closet and internal wiring provide for media installations throughout the home. The garage and elevator offer an ease of living in this classic neighborhood across from Rose Park.
Climate-adaptive comfort systems were added during the renovation, including new custom-built windows with energy-efficient glass, window coverings, additional insulation throughout, and new ventilation to keep the house efficiently cooler in the summer months and warmer in the winter. The home features striking design elements, including two soaring cylinders that house the winding stairs, and expansive skylights that bathe the interior in natural light.
Like living in a work of art, the Trentman House is an award-winning masterpiece designed by renowned architect Hugh Newell Jacobsen. Built in 1969, this historic residence won the AIA Honor Award and was honored with Architectural Record’s #1 Award of Excellence for House Design, recognizing its significant contributions to architectural progress and quality of living. Its importance is underscored by the fact that the original architectural plans are preserved at the Library of Congress, marking it a notable landmark in modern design history.
Stop by and imagine yourself sipping a beverage while the waterfall gently blocks out the world beyond the walls.
