A refined expression of what new construction can be, 3543 Albemarle Street NW brings the proportions and character of classic Washington architecture together with exceptional craftsmanship, finishes, and infrastructure. Developed by Summit Homes and constructed by Bolt Builders, the residence features architecture by Axis Architects, interiors by May Wilson of Edith Gregson Interiors, and landscape architecture by Richardson & Associates.

The radiant white siding facade is defined by a full-width teak front porch framed by Visual Comfort gas lanterns and Andersen E-Series windows and doors. Inside, the entry vestibule features herringbone-laid white oak, setting the tone for the formal living room, where a 36-inch gas fireplace is framed by a steel grey leathered granite surround. Five-inch solid white oak flooring extends across the principal levels, complemented by a white oak staircase and custom-milled treads. The chef’s kitchen anchors the main level with Sub-Zero column refrigeration and freezer, a 36-inch Wolf range, Cove dishwasher, and custom Bullseye cabinetry. Dolce Vita marble adds natural veining, while polished-nickel Emtek hardware and Visual Comfort lighting continue throughout. Open to the dining and family rooms, the kitchen creates a seamless flow to the rear lawn. A private study features Maya Romanoff wallpaper, while Schumacher and Phillip Jeffries bring distinctive finishes to the powder room and mudroom. The first upper level is anchored by a primary suite overlooking the private rear grounds. Its ensuite bath features marble mosaic detailing, radiant heated floors, double vanity, separate water closet, and glass-enclosed shower, with a galley-style walk-in closet completing the suite.
