description: Unit #47 is a jewel of a property! Elegantly renovated one bedroom at the fabled "Mendota," a turn-of-the-century, full-service building in the heart of Kalorama Triangle. Brimming with old world charm, this compact 500 sq ft unit evokes the grandeur of a bygone age! Dramatic 10' ceilings enhance the feeling of spaciousness! Georgia pine floors and birch woodwork & moldings envelop the space in warmth. Decorative fireplace with an exquisite mantel, original tile surround & cast-iron hearth. Transoms. Spacious bath with claw foot tub, built-in medicine chest and vintage 4 ft. high ceramic bathroom tile. Built-in bookshelves with decorative fluted moldings & rosettes. Historic lighting fixtures. Glorious 6'x6.5' living room window overlooking lovely garden courtyard adorned with custom wood blinds. Spacious bedroom with built-in closet organizer. The kitchen, too, is a class act! Sleekly renovated for the new century (with stainless & black appliances, Kohler faucet with matching spray and soap dispenser & custom coutner-tops) plus touches of old world elegance that include a glass-fronted cabinet and white subway tile backsplash. About The Mendota... Cats are welcomed at The Mendota, and the building's services include: 24-hour front desk. Attendant operated elevator. Bike room. Extra storage in large private bin. Large bright laundry room. (Washer/Dryers can be installed in each unit with board approval.) In 2002, the building replaced all of its exterior windows with historically appropriate Mahogany windows (with brass handles and individual screens). Last year, the building also had the exterior brick tuck-pointed & power washed. It is in the process of replacing its fire stairwell, and its rear courtyard is in the midst of a major overhaul. |
