This is the one that stops you in your tracks. A rarely available top-floor penthouse offering an ultra-modern 2-bedroom, 2-bath layout with soaring 13-foot ceilings and dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows that pour natural light into every corner, creating a space that feels both elevated and effortlessly livable. The industrial-inspired aesthetic is perfectly balanced with warm, refined finishes, all set in a vibrant urban neighborhood just minutes to Old Town, Whole Foods, King Street Metro, the upcoming Wegmans, and endless shopping and dining. Recent high-end, designer renovations elevate the home even further. You will love the imported European Herringbone Oak floors and the custom trim and shadow boxes. The kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and upgraded closet systems that maximize storage without sacrificing design. Step onto your private balcony with sweeping views-the perfect setting for slow mornings, sunset unwinding, or hosting friends under the city lights. The home also includes a garage parking space and a private storage unit, an exceptional combination that's increasingly hard to find. Residents enjoy top-tier amenities including an upscale lobby with secure building access and Amazon lockers for package acceptance, on-site management, and a beautifully landscaped private courtyard with a tranquil water feature and outdoor dining areas-your own peaceful retreat in the middle of it all. Located just two Metro stops from DCA, Amazon HQ2, and the Virginia Tech Innovation Campus, the convenience for commuting, travel, and lifestyle is unmatched. Opportunities like this don't come along often-you'll feel it the moment you walk in. You'll be lucky to call this home.
