We are excited to present The Maiatico House - a rare opportunity to own one of the grandest, most historically intact homes in College Heights Estates that had previously been in the Maiatico family for 70 years. This newly renovated residence was originally built in French Eclectic style in 1949 and encompasses 4,884 square feet on 4 finished levels, with 7 Bedrooms, 4 Full Baths, one Half Bath, plus a 2- car garage, on a generous corner lot in the heart of the sought-after and exclusive subdivision. The grandeur of the house is apparent in its spacious rooms, high ceilings and flowing layout conducive to entertaining. Original materials retain high integrity alongside modern upgrades including walk-in showers, Frigidaire Gallery appliances including an induction stove, a counter to ceiling marble backsplash, new high velocity air conditioning system, cedar closets and recently replaced windows throughout. Beautiful slate roofing, original oak hardwood floors and impressive trim and oak paneling adorn the house. Features include a large library with built-in bookshelves and room for a murphy bed, an original laundry chute, an original farm sink, custom solid oak paneling in the primary living, dining, and library rooms on the main level, and hand decorated original plaster wall details. After purchasing the property, Jerry Maiatico became a prolific builder in the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area. He built, or contributed to the construction of, commercial and residential buildings from the 1920s to the 1960s. His construction projects were frequently the subject of both newspaper coverage and lawsuits as he navigated the complex regulatory environment and resource restrictions of the Great Depression, World War II and early Cold War eras. Imagine how the prominent previous owners must have entertained with the original built-in bar (and service bar behind it) with fireplace in the basement! The large primary bedroom suite enjoys a balcony and ensuite bath, and the sunroom provides extra room for play or relaxation. In the sunroom, enjoy a small exhibit of fine clothing worn by the Maiatico women during the "Mad Men" era that were found in the home and preserved for display. A two car garage, flagstone walkway, and original front door offer a lovely way to enter this beautiful home. Don't let this once-in-a-generation opportunity pass you by - visit this home today!
