3641 Saint Marys Pl NW

ONE-of-kind river views from ALL three levels define the pricelessness of this secret gem. Who would have imagined such a panorama of views a mere block from Georgetown University in a private hamlet exuding Village charm! Poised on a cliff soaring above Canal Road and M Street, this house is one of only four built after three years of planning and two years of engineering marvel in 1959. The far southern end of 37th St NW was graded to create a cul-de-sac to herald the entrance to Saint Mary's Place. Ask Listing Agent for an article of this history! Redesigned with the aim of making the view accessible from every level and impeccably maintained by the long-time present owner, this 3-bedroom 3.5-bathroom stunner, 2075sf ABOVE-ground, offers a tempting opportunity for the next owner to further customize and perfect its space. The entry level is distinguished by custom moldings, rich hardwood floors and open flow to a specular balcony boasting the Potomac River. On the lower level, which is ABOVE grade unlike reflected in the public record, is a primary bedroom suite with a fireplace, river-side office/study/sitting room, dressing area, a full bathroom and washer/dryer. The top-level features two-bedroom suites with two full baths and a second set of washer/dryer. The large river-facing suite, with its wet bar/kitchenette and postcard views from Kennedy Center to the Virginia river's edge from a palatial deck, is a shrine for lingering and entertaining. While move-in ready, this rarity offers boundless potential to tap. Furthermore, what an idyllic site for water lovers, bird watchers, skyline seekers and to those whom the Potomac IS Washington.
