Clad in a contemporary combination of red brick, dark green metal, and glass, 1541 6th Street NW commands attention in the heart of trendy Shaw with its striking modernist curb appeal. Designed by the renowned architecture firm Brininstool + Lynch and constructed from the ground up in 2016 by Ditto Residential, Unit 1 is discreetly positioned just above street level, sharing a private foyer with only one other residence. Inside, the home reveals a masterful blend of refined materials, elevated design, and precise workmanship. Soaring ceilings and walls of glass create an ethereal ambiance, grounded by wide-plank white oak floors and fresh paint throughout. A sculptural Ingo Maurer light fixture welcomes you at the entry-suspended above the dining area and equally as much a work of art as it is a source of light, it sets the tone for what lies beyond. At the heart of the home, a remarkable chef's kitchen spans over 22 feet in length, anchored by a sweeping center island wrapped in white quartz with double waterfall edges. Integrated Thermador and Bosch appliances, custom-paneled cabinetry, and generous countertop seating make it as functional as it is stylish. A nearby powder room bridges the transition into the main living space, where natural light pours through a full wall of windows. Custom built-ins and rear lawn access complete the space-grand in scale, yet entirely livable. A stunning architectural bridge leads to the rear yard, maximizing both light and space. Fully fenced and accessed exclusively through the residence, the private outdoor oasis includes a lower-level patio and green space-an exceptionally rare luxury in such a central urban location. Downstairs, the bedroom level provides privacy and serenity. The primary suite features its own private terrace, easily accommodates a king-sized bed, and offers generous storage with both a walk-in and double-width reach-in closet. The spa-like ensuite bath includes a floating double vanity, walk-in shower, separate water closet, and heated tile floors. A flexible den separates the two bedrooms and can be fully enclosed with a floor-to-ceiling accordion wall-ideal as a home office, nursery, or guest room. At the front of the home, the secondary bedroom offers a large window, ample closet space, and a stylish ensuite bath. Additional features include an integrated speaker system and soaring ceilings throughout. Situated in one of DC's most dynamic neighborhoods, with unrivaled access to dining, shopping, nightlife, and public transit, this home delivers both luxury and location. Spectacularly designed, immaculately maintained, and thoughtfully laid out-Unit 1 at 1541 6th Street NW is destined for the most discerning buyer.
