About This Home

5211 Macarthur Ter Nw

Welcome home! This architecturally distinctive, multi-level contemporary retreat is nestled on a serene private street in the heart of DC’s prestigious Palisades neighborhood. Built in 1978 and thoughtfully designed to maximize natural light and tranquil wooded views, this remarkable home spans over 3,500 sq. ft. across 7 split levels of refined living space. Cathedral ceilings, expansive windows, and skylights flood the interior with light, while three wood-burning fireplaces add warmth and charm throughout. The formal living room opens to a spacious deck, perfect for entertaining, and includes a cozy adjacent wine/card room. The lower-level family room offers seamless indoor-outdoor living with direct access to a private patio surrounded by lush greenery—ideal for quiet mornings or alfresco dining. Additional highlights include a secluded primary suite, multiple entertaining zones, and a unique floor plan offering exceptional flexibility. This pet-free, smoke-fee property, which is being sold by its original owner, has been meticulously maintained and cared for. The pride of ownership is evidenced from the minute you cross the threshold and furthered exquisite care and maintenance with multiple service contracts in place and available for transfer to the discerning buyer. This home was built on the prime lot at the top of the private, heated street (maintained by 8 homeowners at the current annual cost of $600/year). Enjoy life in this tranquil, wooded setting just moments from parks, the C&O Canal, and vibrant MacArthur Boulevard amenities.
