Description

Introducing 1614 Tuckerman Street NW, an all-brick Italianate masterpiece built in 1925, offering a rare opportunity to live on 95 feet of frontage directly on Rock Creek Park. Nestled in a secluded forest setting, this home is truly a work of art, combining timeless elegance with thoughtful updates. Whole Foods is just a quick 4-minute drive, and downtown Bethesda is only 16 minutes away, making this residence the perfect balance of tranquility and city living.

Spanning over 4,500 square feet (4,300 livable, 4,750 total) across four grand levels, the home showcases original craftsmanship, with wood floors and large-scale rooms designed for both formal entertaining and everyday living. The main floor boasts wonderful flow, while the kitchen and breakfast room provide a delightful nod to the Art Deco era. Recently renovated to incorporate modern appliances and conveniences, the kitchen retains its nostalgic charm, featuring a 1950s-style dining booth and unique tiling.

Upstairs, the expanded primary suite offers a serene retreat with an updated bath and custom built-ins. Two additional bedrooms and two full baths complete the second floor. The third-floor loft is ideal for a family room, study, or creative retreat. The lower level offers even more—featuring a bonus in-law suite, a striking wet bar made of glass blocks, and ample space for recreation or relaxation as well as additional storage.

The outdoor space is a natural extension of the home, with a charming patio, fountain, and an expansive deck offering the option to dine al fresco. Situated on an end lot, the home provides privacy and ample room for gardening, outdoor activities, or entertaining.

The location is further enhanced by two exciting neighborhood developments. The Parks at Walter Reed, less than a mile away, is undergoing a $500 million transformation, adding restaurants, shops, luxury housing, and the Children’s National Research Hospital. Additionally, the nearby Rock Creek Park Golf Course is receiving a $25 million renovation, revamping the 18-hole course, doubling the clubhouse, and adding hiking paths and a community putting green.

On the market for the first time since the 1980s, 1614 Tuckerman is ready to welcome its fourth owner. With four bedrooms, four full baths, two half baths, a stunning outdoor living space, and parking, this home offers a peaceful retreat while keeping you connected to vibrant city amenities.
