The stone and stucco house was constructed in 1930 in the Tudor style and features long brick driveways and impeccable park-like landscaping on a half acre lot. A 2016 renovation by Jones Boer Architects modernized the 12,000-square-foot residence, rebuilding the family room and kitchen to add a glass partitioned terrace that overlooks the gardens.

Large windows let in plenty of light in the formal living and dining rooms, and the home features herringbone hardwood floors, six wood-burning fireplaces, and some rooms with grass cloth wallpaper.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a mansion without a few over-the-top amenities, too, and this home has them in spades: a 950-bottle wine cellar, formal library, his-and-her master bathrooms, a movie theater, exercise room, pool, and two-bedroom, three-bath pool house with kitchen and spa. Interested? 4400 Garfield Street NW is on the market now for $9,750,000.
