This Week's Find: An Unusual Mount Vernon Square Carriage House: Figure 1

For This Week’s Find, UrbanTurf gets a sneak peek at a Mount Vernon Square carriage house that has some features which set it apart from similar property types in the city.

The two-bedroom home was renovated back in 2007 as part of The Palermo, a 7-unit condo project in a historic M Street brownstone. The carriage house is located behind the stately home, and the most prominent design feature is a glazed glass facade that runs the entire length of the property.

Inside, the living area and kitchen are open, and the upstairs bedroom has views of the patio and the alley. Five skylights bring light into what must have once been a dark space.

Other features include two spa baths, a parking spot and plentiful closet space. More details and photos below. This listing will officially hit the market on Wednesday.

  • Address: 442 M Street NW, Carriage House (map)

    This is beautiful...but painful to look at as this was my concept back in 2005 for the carriage house next door. Never share your plans with others unless you don't mind them taking it.
