The moment you open the front door of this contemporary Mt. Vernon Square loft, its 10-foot-high concrete ceilings draw your eyes up to exposed ductwork, pipes, and bold concrete columns. When you finally look down, you'll be greeted by an upgraded kitchen with Caesarstone countertops, a deep double sink, an understated glass tile backsplash, plus stainless-steel appliances and accents. This home is meant for entertaining. The open concept living and dining rooms offer you more than enough room for a dining room table for six without sacrificing the space you'll want for an extra-large sectional sofa where friends can gather for drinks, the big game or movie night. This living space seems even bigger because of the loft's floor-to-ceiling windows which bathe the loft in year-round sunshine from the south and west. The home's primary bedroom features a Juliet balcony, custom blackout draperies, and an ultra-quiet ceiling fan for a good night's sleep. Beyond the bedroom lies an updated en-suite bathroom with dual vanities, a separate tub and shower, plus a massive Elfa-organized walk-in closet. The home's second bedroom is in the loft overlooking the kitchen and living areas. This flexible space is big enough for a queen-sized bed for your guests or perhaps your home office or Peloton studio. It also includes its own walk-in closet with customized Elfa storage. This space is rounded out with a second full bathroom and the loft's in-unit laundry. The owner and his Los Angeles-based interior designer sought to embrace the loft's industrial elements, but soften them with the complementary white, grey, and charcoal palette you first see in the kitchen, but will find throughout this one-of-kind home. The effect is to create a calming space ready to be your sanctuary in the heart of the city. Additionally, the condo comes with a large, SUV-sized, assigned parking space. Located halfway between Union Station and the Convention Center on historic Massachusetts Avenue, N.W., the Sonata is a premier boutique condominium that offers everything youre looking for in city living easy access to shopping, restaurants, bars, museums, theaters and the citys transportation network.

This spring, its installing new landscaping, furniture and grills on the communitys roof terrace.
