Rare Triplex Condominium with Quintessential D.C. Views at The Weslie Hits the Market!

A rare opportunity has arrived at The Weslie with the listing of 1401 N. Oak Street #912, an exquisitely renovated condominium triplex, once owned by the late Businessman and Philanthropist Forrest E. Mars Jr.. The impressive listing is offered at $3,850,000 and listed by Diane Lewis of Washington Fine Properties.

The spectacular condo consists of two units, combined by Mars Jr. when The Weslie was built in 1981. Once purchased by the current owner in 2002, the triplex underwent a complete renovation, adding an impressive in-unit elevator, servicing three levels, and a skylight to the foyer. At the time, the current owner’s next-door neighbor was former Congressman Charlie Wilson and a few scenes of the film, “Charlie Wilson’s War”, starring Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts, were filmed at The Weslie, featuring parts of unit #912.

With spectacular, panoramic views of the National Mall, D.C., the Iwo Jima Memorial, the Potomac River, Reagan National Airport and all of Arlington, #912 provides unbeatable views from the interior and multiple balconies with its triple exposure. With footage shot next door to The Weslie, these timeless Washington views can also be found in the opening of the show, “House of Cards”.

In addition to its breathtaking views, this one-of-a-kind residence offers penthouse living with modern design, three assigned underground parking spaces and two storage units. Upon entering the unit, the foyer’s skylight floods the space with natural light. Stairs lead up to the living room with 13-foot ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, built-in cabinetry, a wet bar with ice maker and an upper terrace-like balcony with beautiful views of D.C. The dining room overlooks the living room, providing access to a Juliet balcony with views of Rosslyn and opens to the gourmet kitchen. This well-appointed space features a center island, top-tier appliances, a walk-in pantry and access to the elevator for this level. Through the kitchen, there is a large family room with built-ins and a half bath. Back on the entry level, off the foyer, there is a coat closet, a powder room, a laundry room, elevator access and two well-appointed bedroom suites. A curved staircase leads to the lower level. A luxurious retreat, the primary suite, with the same stunning views as the living room, features an additional terrace-like balcony, beautiful built-in cabinetry and closets, a tray ceiling, automated window coverings, a separate sitting room with a wet bar and Juliet balcony and an elegant primary bath with dual sinks, a jetted tub, a large shower and a private water closet. A wine room and an office with built-ins, a Juliet balcony, walk-in cedar closet and a half bath complete this level.

Building Amenities include a fully staffed front desk, a fitness center, a reservable roof deck and easy guest parking with two EV charging stations. About a half of a mile to Rosslyn Metro, D.C., Alexandria, Tysons and Reagan National Airport are only a quick drive away via Route 50, the George Washington Parkway and I-66.
