    Timeless style meets contemporary charm in this one-bedroom Ontario home that’s worthy of the spotlight. Welcome to 2853 Ontario Road NW #508, a haven designed for the urban buyer seeking a place that reflects their distinct lifestyle. Outside, the building’s iconic Beaux-Arts exterior sets the tone for the mix of character and elegance you’ll find in this fifth floor escape. Past the threshold, an entryway spills into the main living and dining area that’s punctuated by 10-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, a decorative fireplace with marble tiling, abundant natural light, crown molding, and a canopy with original detailing. Throughout the entire home, western-facing exposures provide idyllic views of the verdant courtyard below, while chic light fixtures add a touch of modern flair. Thoughtfully separated from the prime living space, the kitchen serves up gourmet appliances, gas-cooking, and tall cabinetry, creating the perfect backdrop for all your culinary adventures. Around the corner, the sunlit bathroom features an under-window storage cabinet, a pedestal sink, a separate armoire, and a clawfoot tub (with shower) built to help you slip into serenity after a long day. Steps away, the spacious bedroom makes room for both a bed and a workspace, allowing you to channel relaxation or productivity no matter the day’s demands. Beyond the notable advantages #508 has in store, life at the Ontario is just as noteworthy. Here, residents have exclusive access to an impressive lineup of amenities — from the front desk that’s open 7 days a week to the panoramic rooftop deck, the summer pavilion, the herb garden, the shared social room, and the state-of-the-art fitness center. Some other resident-only perks? Pet-friendly permissions, additional storage, laundry on each level, rental parking, and community gatherings held annually. A $31,098.36 tax deductible underlying mortgage (at 5.17% interest) reduces the cash needed to purchase. The monthly fee includes the underlying mortgage, tax deductible real estate taxes, heat, ,porters, on-site management, wellness center access, frond desk service, panoramic roof deck, social room and more. A DC architectural gem set in Lanier Heights atop 3 acres of private land, the Ontario blends the allure of park-like living with the conveniences of contemporary culture. Located at the intersection of Mount Pleasant, Adams Morgan, and Woodley Park, the building is just minutes from some of the most beloved attractions in all of DC. Explore the open-air possibilities of Rock Creek Park, play with the pandas at the National Zoo, picnic in Walter Pierce Park, stock up on fresh produce at the weekly Farmers Market, and sample your way through the eclectic array of dining options this vibrant corner of DC presents. Some local favorites include Reveler’s Hour, The Potter’s House and Elle(to name just a few). Need to venture outside of your community? No problem — the Woodley Park/Adams Morgan and Columbia Heights Metro stops are each a short walk away. To experience a new standard of urban character, there’s no place like 2853 Ontario Road NW #508. Don’t miss out on this rare opportunity to see it for yourself!
