    New Price! Completed in 2021, this custom built six-bedroom, five-and-a-half-bath residence exemplifies exceptional design and craftsmanship in one of D.C.’s most coveted neighborhoods. The home encompasses approximately 7,500 square feet on the inside and showcases an all-white brick exterior, triple-pane tilt-and-turn windows imported from Germany, and a masonry privacy wall that encloses the pool, hot tub and grounds. Inside, soaring ceilings ranging from 9 to 15 feet and Brazilian teak flooring create a striking sense of scale and sophistication. The main level features a cathedral-ceiling family room with a gas fireplace, an elegant living room, dining area and family room - and all centered around a gourmet kitchen appointed with Brazilian quartzite countertops, custom cabinetry, and a separate scullery with its own outdoor access—perfect for entertaining. Walk out from the main level to the stone covered patio overlooking the garden and pool. The luxurious primary suite includes a tray ceiling, a private fireplace, generous walk-in closet, and spa-inspired bath with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and separate shower. Two additional bedrooms with ensuite baths and a full laundry room complete the upper level, while the third level offers two additional bedrooms, a vaulted-ceiling recreation room with wet bar, and a rooftop terrace ideal for entertaining or quiet retreat. The lower level provides exceptional flexibility with a large game room, exercise room, and full bath that conveniently serves pool guests. A two-car garage with interior access, utility room, and storage areas complete this level. Luxury appointments include four fireplaces (three gas and one wood-burning), an elevator servicing all floors, a steam bath, and a heated saltwater pool with hot tub. Additional highlights include thermal flagstone terraces, stainless-steel railings, new water and sewer connections, and a tankless gas water heater. Zoned natural gas heating and electric cooling systems provide individual comfort control on each floor. Set within the serene, tree-lined streets of Forest Hills, 5152 Linnean Terrace enjoys a rare balance of privacy and convenience. Just moments from the shops and restaurants of Connecticut Avenue, residents are steps from neighborhood favorites such as Politics and Prose Bookstore, Comet Ping Pong, and more. Nearby Forest Hills Playground, Soapstone Valley Trail, and Rock Creek Park offer endless opportunities for recreation and connection to nature—all while remaining less than fifteen minutes from downtown Washington.
