A Great Kitchen in Cleveland Park

We’re not surprised that this unusually designed colonial was off the market in less than a week. This five-bedroom on the northern boundary of Cleveland Park isn’t predictable. Its best feature is undoubtedly the kitchen, a spotless white renovation that shares space with a living or dining area and looks out onto the patio through a wall of windows and French doors. Skylights complete the feeling of airy openness, and out back is a flagstone patio, a yard and a one-car garage.
