Known as the Schwarzschild House, this 1927 W. Duncan Lee-designed Georgian Revival occupies a true double lot within the Monument Avenue Historic District, a National Historic Landmark, and remains a remarkably intact example of Lee's residential work, offering the scale, privacy, and garden setting of a country house in the heart of the city. Generously proportioned rooms retain an extraordinary degree of original fabric, from the sweeping curved staircase and intricate plaster ceilings to carved millwork, paneled living and dining rooms, marble fireplaces, and original hardwood floors. The second floor offers three bedrooms with en-suite baths plus a gracious sitting room with fireplace, wet bar, and private limestone terrace. The third floor adds a fourth bedroom, two beautifully appointed dressing suites with extensive custom closets and private baths, one with a soaking tub and both with generous showers, as well as laundry. Beyond, the brick-walled Charles Gillette garden unfolds around a lily pond, wisteria-covered pergola, mature magnolias, limestone terrace, irrigation system, and fully conditioned summer house. Two conditioned detached garages provide four-car parking, with climate-controlled wine storage below. Original architectural drawings convey.
