A Queen Anne in Cleveland Park

This turn-of-the-century Cleveland Park Queen Anne-style house was built during the Grover Cleveland administration when the neighborhood was on a trolley route. The house comes complete with a round turret surrounded by a wraparound porch, and the shape creates a rounded bay in the living room. The dining room has triple exposure and a fireplace flanked with narrow built-ins, while the family room offers access to the backyard and has a recessed display cabinet. The eat-in kitchen has access to the garden-framed backyard, where moss creeps through the expansive brick patio and there are steps down to a lawn area. The house also enjoys an upstairs balcony, a garage, and views of the National Cathedral.

• Price: $5 million
