From its extraordinary location just a stone’s throw from the White House, this sublime penthouse at the Adele embraces you in refined luxury. The full-service condominium with only 14 residences is the masterwork of architect Jane Nelson and designer Michael Hampton who preserved the stunning façade of a 1920s building while reimagining the interior for a bespoke lifestyle experience.

The Hermitage, one of six Estate Collection residences, boasts two bedrooms, 2.5 marble baths, a den/office, and a private terrace with stunning city views. A pretty foyer with extra closet space leads into a gorgeous main living and dining area with huge windows along two sides including a charming three-sided bay. Premium wide plank oak floors, crown molding, and designer lighting enhance this remarkable city home, as do the commanding views of the White House and Washington Monument. An open chef’s kitchen features Calcutta Gold quartz counters and island, hanging lanterns, an Ann Sacks backsplash, Waterworks fixtures, toe-kick lighting, and Gaggenau and Thermador appliances including a wine reserve.

Private quarters are positioned on different sides of the layout. The owner’s suite enjoys its own hallway with a powder room, full laundry with side-by-side washer and dryer, and a large bedroom with French windows, and two walk-in closets with thoughtful organizers. The ensuite bath boasts Anne Sacks tiling with programmable heated floors, a twin vanity with a Danby marble top, a deep Kohler soaking tub, and a frameless rain shower. An airy second bedroom features a three-window bay, a custom walk-in closet, and a full ensuite marble bath with frameless shower and Ann Sacks tile.

At the top of The Adele is a catering kitchen, wet bar, and bathroom, with 12-foot glass doors leading out to a landscaped roof deck with a lounging area, trellis, gas fireplace, and Washington Monument views. Residents also enjoy front gardens, and a chic lobby with maple millwork, marble flooring, and concierge service. Penthouse 701 also comes with a reserved, oversized parking space with room enough for two cars, and extra storage. The Farragut North Metro is also conveniently close.

From The Adele, Washington’s Power Perch, you’ll be steps from top restaurants, shops, the business corridor, and the plethora of cultural attractions that epitomize life in vibrant downtown DC. Numerous public squares and greenspaces are within easy strolling distance, and the White House is just a stone’s throw away. The new Midtown Center is just a block away, with numerous top eateries like Philotimo from Michelin-star chef Nicholas Stefanelli, and Dauphine’s led by chef Kyle Bailey. From morning coffee to nighttime events, this is one of DC’s most lively and walk-friendly neighborhoods.
