DC Dream Homes: Charming Estate on the Edge of Rock Creek Park for $11.75M

Sitting on the edge of Rock Creek Park, this house has the coolest landscape elements in the area, including a historic trolley station.

This week's D.C. Dream Home is a historic estate that has been beautifully expanded and modernized, listed by Compass for $11,750,000. The original structure has been expanded with two wings built with Vermont granite and slate to match the original materials. The home has been modernized without losing its roaring '20s charm, and the upgrades mean that there are plenty of bedrooms each with an ensuite. There are also other amenities that make this home at 5320 27th St. NW Washington, D.C., a dream.
