3329 & 3333 Q Street NW

With open views overlooking Volta Park in the heart of Georgetown’s coveted West Village, 3333 and 3329 Q Street NW form a hidden compound of masterful design and state-of-the-art living. A rare convergence of contemporary architecture and historic charm, this offering represents one of the Capital Region’s most spectacular private residences. Unassuming from the street, the property comprises what were originally three 19th-century Georgetown townhomes, unified in an extraordinary synthesis of period character and visionary design by the region’s leading voice in contemporary architecture, Robert Gurney. A foremost collaboration with interior designer Therese Baron Gurney and landscape architect Campion Hruby resulted in 8,665 square feet of irreplicable living space across two distinct yet seamlessly integrated residences, set on a fifth of an acre of private, usable land — an exceedingly rare offering in this storied neighborhood. 3333 Q Street NW is the centerpiece main house. Its original footprint includes an open concept living and dining area, ingeniously anchored by a 200-bottle glass-enclosed wine cellar that doubles as both focal point and divider. The flow remains effortless while suggesting distinct formal zones. Both spaces are embassy-sized, with the living room spanning 28 feet in width, framed by dual, opposing gas fireplaces, and the dining room comfortably seating 12 for formal entertaining. Three-quarter inch walnut flooring runs throughout the main and upper levels, lending warmth and cohesion. At the heart of the home, a floating glass and steel staircase revolves around a light-filled central well, crowned by a skylight above, a sculptural showpiece in and of itself. A rear addition, connected by a glass link, comprises the informal wing. In deliberate contrast to the original structure, its expanses of glass, red brick, and standing seam copper siding boldly juxtapose the historical framework. The Boffi kitchen is a culinary enthusiast’s dream, with Dornbracht fixtures, seamless white stone surfaces, matte cabinetry, and an integrated Gaggenau and Miele appliance suite. Pocketing glass doors dissolve boundaries between interior and exterior in the adjacent family room and breakfast area, ushering in the rear lawn and offering a breezy, California-style indoor-outdoor experience. The upper-level primary suite occupies the entirety of the addition, enjoying its own private balcony and stunning garden views. Highlights include a 19-foot-deep Poliform walk-in closet and a spa-inspired bath with floating double vanity, Boffi soaking tub, steam shower, and radiant-heated stone floors, all with Dornbracht fixtures. Three additional upper-level bedrooms are all ensuite, each appointed with luxurious finishes and radiant-heated full baths. A well-equipped laundry room completes the floor. Above, a dramatic two-story bookcase punctuated by a glass floor leads to a top-level library and office, wrapped in custom built-ins and crowned by a rooftop terrace with panoramic city views. The lower level is designed for refined leisure. A professionally designed home cinema features tiered seating, soundproof walls, and integrated surround sound. The adjacent fitness center and golf simulator room cater to active living, while the subterranean four-car garage, virtually unheard of in this neighborhood, exits via a heated, discreet rear driveway. Additional amenities include a reclaimed wood accent wall, secondary laundry, pool bath with yard access, generous storage, and mechanical rooms. Support systems include Sonos whole-home audio, Lutron lighting, Petitbon security, a whole-home water filtration system, six sump pumps, and a four-zone Honeywell HVAC system, ensuring comfort, convenience, and security at every level. Next door, 3329 Q Street NW follows the same principles of architectural excellence. The main living room features a dramatic wood and stone fireplace wall, setting the tone for what lies ahead. A formal powder room with frosted glass door leads to the dining room, situated beneath a spectacular double-height atrium capped by a skylight. This space flows into the showpiece floating wood, steel, and glass staircase, all bathed in natural light. The minimalist kitchen mirrors its counterpart next door, complete with a floating thick stone breakfast bar, Boffi cabinetry, and premium appliances. Upstairs, two bedrooms offer luxurious ensuite baths with natural stone finishes, along with in-unit laundry. A third suite is privately positioned on the lower level. Dornbracht fixtures and triple-zoned HVAC provide comfort and elegance throughout. The rear lawn is arguably one of the most captivating outdoor spaces in all of Georgetown. Anchored by a heated saltwater pool with a twelve-person integrated spa, the grounds are framed by thirteen illuminated European Hornbeams. An automatic cover ensures ease of use, while a pass-through water feature adds architectural depth. The bluestone terrace includes limestone steps and designated areas for lounging and al fresco dining. A manicured lawn with full irrigation runs parallel, and tucked into a shaded nook is a fire pit set beneath a backlit aqua glass feature wall, paired with a custom Boffi outdoor shower for post-swim indulgence. A masterclass in design and craftsmanship, 3333 and 3329 Q Street NW occupy an unparalleled position in one of the nation’s most esteemed communities. This rare and irreplicable compound offers a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own one of the Capital Region’s most architecturally significant private residences.
