Serving as the alma mater to eight decades of DC children this breathtaking home offers the perfect marriage of classical and modern in its meticulous design. Built in 1893, the building itself is very much in the Cluss architectural spirit, who was responsible for the design of more than ninety late 19th and early 20th centuries structures in Washington, DC, a number of which were public schools like the Pierce School. A notable example of his commercial work is the nearby Eastern Market, designed in 1873. Like most large-scale buildings of its time, the Pierce School was constructed entirely of red brick.With existing schoolhouse features, its depth of character and aesthetic design is very much anchored in the architecture of its time.

This penthouse is packed with personality, color, texture, and layers that make this space entrancing and luxuriating in a sense of grandeur.As renovations began on the schoolhouse, the developers knew that the top two floors presented an incredible opportunity to create something wholly original in the space, and the result is 9,800 square feet the largest penthouse in DC. Ceilings stretch over 30 feet high in some areas, and original components from the schoolhouse such as chalkboards and locker cubbies have been incorporated into the final design throughout the building and the unit. In addition, this penthouse offers exposed brick, sleek lines, and classic elements.
