Woodley Park is defined by a variety of housing types, from apartment buildings along Connecticut Avenue, to row houses on nearby streets, to detached, though closely spaced single family homes toward the National Cathedral.

This home required the sensitive placement of a two-level addition on a very tight lot, creating an open multi-use space that easily connects with the rear yard. Extensive interior cabinetry and trim knit the spaces together on both walls and ceilings. Large areas of glass and a wooden pergola make the transition from inside to out. The program included a new Kitchen/Breakfast Room and Family Room, set above a lower level Recreation Room and Guest Suite.
