Property Description

Welcome to 4561 MacArthur Boulevard NW, a substantial, custom-built residence offering approximately 4,050 square feet of finished space across four levels. Designed and constructed by acclaimed Washington builder Jim Gibson, this all-brick home combines enduring architecture, generous proportions, flexible living spaces, and exceptional outdoor amenities. With five bedrooms, three-and-a-half baths, and multiple areas for entertaining, working, and relaxing, the home delivers uncommon scale in the heart of the Palisades. A custom ProVia front door opens to an impressive main level with 10-foot ceilings and gracious formal and informal living spaces. The expansive living room features a gas fireplace and flows easily into the adjoining dining room. At the center of the home, the chefs kitchen is appointed with custom cherry cabinetry, a professional-style cooktop, and Thermador and Bosch appliances. Double ProVia French doors extend the living space outdoors to a private Trex deck with a custom pergola, waterfall, and integrated six-person Sundance spa. The bedroom level includes a dramatic primary suite with soaring vaulted ceilings, skylights, and abundant natural light. Two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and conveniently located laundry complete the floor. The upper-level loft, also enhanced by vaulted ceilings, provides an ideal setting for a home office, library, studio, or family room. Distinctive lunette windows frame a seasonal rare view of the Washington Monument The finished lower level offers exceptional versatility. A sound-treated media room features a wood-burning fireplace and 7.1 surround sound, creating an inviting setting for movies, music, or casual gatherings. Two additional bedrooms can serve as guest accommodations, offices, fitness rooms, or hobby spaces. A recently renovated full bath and plumbing for an optional second laundry area add further convenience. The landscaped grounds are designed for privacy, recreation, and low-maintenance enjoyment. Brick pathways wind through mature plantings, raised garden beds, and a tranquil 3-tiered waterfall pond designed by LandArt. Additional improvements include a newer roof, composite exterior trim, Marvin composite windows, and an 8.8 kW Enphase solar energy system that helps reduce utility costs. Two-car off-street parking includes a one-car garage equipped with a 220-volt EV charger. Located near neighborhood restaurants, shops, parks, trails, the Potomac River, Georgetown, and major commuter routes, this distinctive residence offers substantial space, architectural character, and a private retreat in one of Washingtons most established neighborhoods.
