A stately and beautifully reimagined colonial in Woodley Park, this completely renovated residence offers timeless elegance and modern comfort across four expansive levels. Once owned by Michael Collins, the Apollo 11 astronaut who was the command module pilot on the first lunar mission to the moon, this home carries a rare legacy along with its remarkable design. With five bedrooms, four and a half bathrooms, and rare two-car garage parking, it delivers exceptional space, thoughtful design, and high-end finishes throughout. Inside, stunning hardwood floors run throughout sun-drenched living spaces.
The welcoming foyer opens to a gracious formal living room with a fireplace and detailed crown molding, leading to an expansive dining room and an incredible light-filled sunroom. French doors open to a beautifully landscaped backyard and flagstone patio—an oasis tucked away from the city. The well-equipped kitchen is outfitted with premium Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances and an adjacent casual dining area. The main level also features a powder room.
Upstairs, find two bright bedrooms including a secondary suite with an ensuite bath plus a sunny front facing office. The primary suite is a true retreat, boasting a walk-in closet, sunroom with a wood-burning fireplace, and a large ensuite bath. The top level offers two more bedrooms with charming details, like a cozy window seat, plus another full bath. The fully renovated lower level includes a large wine cellar, wet bar with wine storage, and a versatile den, ideal as a fitness space. A bedroom with an ensuite bath completes the basement.
The home has undergone extensive improvements, including replacing floors, walls, and ceilings, adding central heating, completing the rear addition, enhancing the landscaping with new fencing and holly plantings, and more—resulting in a polished and private haven in one of DC’s most desirable neighborhoods. Located in the sought-after Woodley Park neighborhood, enjoy nearby conveniences like the Washington National Cathedral, Whole Foods, top-rated restaurants, shops, gyms, and schools like Maret, NCS, St. Alban’s, Eaton Elementary and Hardy Middle School.
