Spring Valley's Premier Residence
Unparalleled Workmanship
Unsurpassed Materials and Finishes
This spectacular custom-built masterpiece was created by acclaimed Builder Clemens Construction as the builder's personal residence. Inspired by a custom designed home in the Hamptons that was commissioned by the Guggenheim family, this incredible house combines French Eclectic Styled architecture with an array of special materials including beautiful natural stone, authentic stucco, cast stone accents, copper finials, Ludowici roof tiles and tumbled cobblestones. Special care to material selection and installation were taken to ensure that this brand new, state-of-the-art residence blended into the existing fabric and charm of old Spring Valley. An extraordinary floor plan featuring both embassy-sized formal rooms and warm informal rooms is ideal for both lavish full-scale entertaining as well as comfortable family living. From the exceptional thirty-five-foot living room with herringbone laid walnut floors and custom-milled coffered ceiling to the gourmet chef's kitchen with expansive mahogany topped center island, to the dramatic master bedroom suite with tray ceiling and luxurious "his" and "her" baths, no detail has been spared or compromised in presenting this home of true distinction. Over 16,000 finished square feet are complemented by high ceilings, custom millwork, exquisite granites, marbles, limestone and exotic 5" Santo mahogany hardwood floors. The exceptional lower level boasts an indoor basketball court, spa/treatment center with sauna and steam, exercise facilities, extensive wine cellar and fabulous home theater. A private walled-in rear yard is enhanced by a cabana with kitchen facilities, heated swimming pool and separate hot tub. Ideally located in the heart of prestigious Spring Valley, the home is only minutes to shopping, restaurants, public transportation including the Tenley and Friendship Heights Metros, the Kennedy Center, Georgetown and the vibrancy of downtown Washington, DC.
