Rarely available modernist masterpiece, 2130 Cathedral features an iconic facade, stunning views over Rock Creek Park and is bathed in natural light. Built by architect Errol Adels for himself, this design was given personal approval by J. Carter Brown, then head of the Commission of Fine Arts. With just two owners since Adels - both art collectors - this beauty retains all of its original details. The home has hosted visiting dignitaries, Hollywood celebrities, White House Correspondents Dinner after parties, and countless events in its double height living room and on its stunning patios. Three levels, three full baths, with the top floor containing a large primary bedroom, bath and full span terrace with views of the sky above the treetops. Private guest room and en suite bath. Beautiful family room/den. Two car parking with direct access to Rock Creek trails, as well the Parkway. Minutes from downtown, Georgetown, Dupont, the Potomac River, as well as one block from Woodley Park and Adams Morgan amenities including Metro, restaurants and shops. Unlike any in Washington, this home is ready for the next discerning owner.
