Georgetown’s Cook’s Row Mansion in Washington, D.C, now Available
A six bedroom mansion in Washington, D.C., is the newest featured listing from Jim Bell Real Estate. This prime luxury real estate is located in one of the most desirable areas of the city.
Washington, D.C. (MediaQuire) November 19, 2009 -- Jim Bell Real Estate.com announces its exclusive featured listing: 3007 Q Street, located in the historic Cooke's Row area of Georgetown. The property has an offering price of $6.5 million.
This luxury home includes six bedrooms, five full baths and one half bath and represents a comprehensive and systemic restoration/ modernization of a rare 1870's Second Empire semi-detached house, part of historic Cooke's Row.
“This elite second empire-style mansion in D.C. is a tremendous architectural opportunity and a wise investment for individuals in the US and the international community,” says Jim Bell, of Jim Bell Real Estate.
All of the original windows and doors were fully restored with some of the original glazing intact. A good portion of the roof has new slate while the projecting bays and dormers have new metal roofing. A 1930's kitchen addition was taken off of the back of the house in order to open up the house to a newly-landscaped garden accessible from a new deck with balustrades compatible with those of the front porch to the house.
The new kitchen has four windows across the back, one of which is actually a door to the deck. 
A new back stair leads to family room directly above the kitchen. Many of the interior spaces were expanded and connected to one another with wider, higher openings than the doors that originally connected the rooms. This creates good circulation while maintaining the character of the original house.
The three story circular staircase was restored and a back-lit false skylight installed in the ceiling above.
The best of the original wood flooring was restored while destroyed flooring was replaced with new oak flooring. Many of the original interior doors were restored and re-used. Original brown slate fireplace surrounds were uncovered and polished. There is a considerable amount of new plasterwork throughout the interior, along with a lot of new moulding based on the original profiles. Both the exterior and the interior surfaces of the house are completely repaired and repainted. There is new lighting, plumbing, HVAC and insulation throughout.
