About this House

An iconic Chevy Chase masterpiece, originally constructed in 1906 and painstakingly renovated by renowned architect John Samperton for his own family, 8 East Melrose Street bears historical significance and exudes class. Located on one of the most coveted addresses in the Village, the residence has a distinct Victorian-Gothic style while evoking cues from America’s great summer estates in Nantucket. Prominently sited on a double 0.29 acre lot with unmistakable curb appeal, the home has hosted numerous glamorous events within Washington’s scene, showcasing its timeless social significance. A rare offering, this property has only changed hands a handful of times in the last century, meticulously preserved over the years as a testament to a bygone era of permanence in craftsmanship. A brick walkway leads to the central portico, introducing a layout suited for both grand entertaining and intimate family living. Effortless flow, vaulted ceilings, abundant storage, six bedrooms, four and a half bathrooms, and an attached two car garage offer a precious combination of practicality and luxury. 8 East Melrose has been meticulously crafted with hand selected materials: original white oak floors inlaid with walnut, leaded and stained glass windows, extensive millwork with rosette-embedded crown moldings, and authentic architectural details. Formal spaces exude moments from the Golden Age of entertaining, with whimsical Ionic columns, balusters, roaring fireplaces surrounded by hand-carved mantels, accent lighting, and ¾ height chair rail molding establishing a sense of occasion. Yet, informal spaces embody the practicality demanded of casual contemporary lifestyles, exemplified by the chef’s kitchen, whose modern cabinetry integrates state-of-the-art Viking, SubZero, and Bosch appliances. Likewise, an expansive mudroom includes built-in lockers and accesses both the front porch as well as garage with EV connection points. Upstairs, the primary suite’s wood burning fireplace introduces a warmth to the space. Triple walk-in closets and a spa bath with twin vanities, steam shower, and jetted soaking tub complete the oasis. Three secondary bedrooms, two baths, a convenient laundry room, and a breathtaking private office with cathedral ceiling overlooking the treetops through stained glass complete the picture. The lower level features a large recreation room with built-in shelving, full bath, and an additional bedroom with a walk-up to the home’s exterior. The expansive property has full southern exposure, is surrounded by mature trees, and has been professionally landscaped for the utmost privacy and year-round color. The lot’s elevated position offers a sweeping view of the neighborhood and a private, rear lawn. Equidistant between the revered Chevy Chase Club and the District Line, the location is convenient to verdant parks, trendy shopping, acclaimed eateries, leading schools, and the city. Blending traditional beauty, historical significance, and modern luxury—8 East Melrose is a cherished estate ready for its next chapter.
