Luxury in Every Detail.

Spanning nearly 1,600 square feet, Residence 423 at The Ontario offers an elegant blend of early 20th-century craftsmanship and modern comfort. Soaring 10-foot ceilings, rich hardwood floors, and grandly scaled rooms evoke a sense of classic Washington sophistication.

An inviting entry foyer introduces the home’s spacious layout and leads to a sun-filled living room with a decorative fireplace and a wrought-iron balcony overlooking the city. Through original pocket doors, the adjoining dining room provides a gracious setting for gatherings, featuring built-in cabinetry, a charming window seat, and access to a well-appointed butler’s pantry and windowed kitchen—ideal for both casual and formal entertaining.

The corner primary bedroom enjoys a tranquil, light-filled atmosphere with generous proportions, while the second bedroom offers equal versatility—perfect for guests, a den, or home office. The windowed bath retains its period appeal with a clawfoot tub and pedestal sink, balancing timeless detail with everyday comfort. A large walk-in closet off the foyer enhances storage and functionality.
