Welcome to 2045 Parkside Drive, nestled in the historic section of Colonial Village. This is a rare chance to become only the second owner of a 1956 mid-century modern gem, offered by the estate of its original owner and architect. The property boasts a premier lot with 180-degree, unobstructed views of Rock Creek Park's scenic vistas, available year-round. The double front doors lead into a modern interior featuring curved walls, oversized windows, and a layout that combines formal spaces with an open feel. The main level's living and dining rooms provide ample space for both large gatherings and intimate evenings by the fireplace. A private office, just off the foyer, offers some of the home's best views of the park. The main level porch overlooks a generous lot-and-a-half, just under a third of an acre. A short flight of stairs leads to the bedroom level, which includes a spacious primary suite and two additional bedrooms with a full bath. Each bedroom features oversized windows, highlighting the home's mid-century design. The lower level is a delightful surprise, offering a vast open space perfect for game or movie nights, additional entertaining, or cozy evenings by the second fireplace. This level also includes an additional bedroom, full bath, and an oversized two-car side-load garage. This home is a perfect find for enthusiasts of mid-century architecture or those seeking a unique home in a special setting. While it offers immense potential, the house remains in its original condition and is in need of a major renovation. Sold completely AS-IS.
