12 Montgomery Street NE

Description

Designed to be lived in, not just admired, this new construction home blends elevated design with everyday functionality. Every line, every transition, every moment here feels deliberate and that's exactly the point. Set on a quiet street in Edgewood, this home was designed with intention of lifestyle, community, walkability and comfort. From the first step through the door, the foyer with it's wide hallway and 10 foot ceilings set the tone, giving the home a sense of openness without sacrificing warmth or comfort. The layout unfolds naturally. The entry leads you into a central living space that anchors the home, where kitchen, dining, and living areas connect in a way that supports real life. Immediately catching your eyes in the living room are expansive sliding glass doors that open across the full span of the wall, creating a powerful connection to the outdoors; open them wide and the covered back patio becomes a true extension of the home. The kitchen, designed as the home's true hub, brings everything together. Custom cabinetry, high-end appliances, a dramatic 48-inch gas range from the Gordon Ramsay Thor collection, custom vent hood and quartzite countertops anchor the kitchen while still making it beautiful and functional. The oversized island sits at the center, offering generous prep space, seating that invites conversation, and a natural gathering point for everyday life. Just beyond, a tucked-away walk in pantry with cabinets and counters that mirror the kitchen, provides a prep area and additional storage keeping the main kitchen open, uncluttered, and easy to live in. Set in between the kitchen and the dining space is a bar area that can serve the purpose you need, either as a coffee station or wine and beverage area. This is a main living space that understands how people move, gather, and cook, where every element has a purpose, and nothing feels accidental. And not to forget to mention the convenience of a main floor bedroom and bathroom for guests and family alike. And now it's time to ascend upstairs, the stairs that are a true design feature. What truly sets the staircase apart is the integrated motion-sensor lighting. As you approach, each tread softly illuminates in sequence, automatically lighting your path. It's subtle, smart, and quietly dramatic, offering both safety and ambiance without the need to flip a switch. In the evening, the glow adds a sculptural quality to the space, casting warmth across the wood floors and reinforcing the home's modern sensibility. Upstairs, the same 10-foot ceilings continue, giving the secondary bedrooms, each with it's own bathroom, a sense of generosity and ease. Then comes the primary suite, where the scale shifts in a way you don't expect, 12-foot ceilings create a dramatic yet calming retreat, offering privacy, and a feeling of escape from the day-to-day. The ensuite bath mirrors that sense of intention, with a spa-like atmosphere that includes a large walk in shower with remotely controlled shower hardware and a large soaking tub. A true two-car garage with EV charging provides everyday convenience, something increasingly rare in the area, and the new construction means modern systems, efficient layouts, and peace of mind for years to come. Beyond the walls, the lifestyle here is just as compelling. Living in Edgewood means being part of a neighborhood with a genuine pulse-an urban-suburban mix that draws creatives, entrepreneurs, and long-time residents alike. Walkable streets, distinctive architecture, and a strong sense of community define the area. Neighbors know each other. Porch conversations happen organically. Weekend pop-ups, local businesses, and everyday moments give the neighborhood its rhythm. Edgewood isn't just where you live, it's how you live. It's a place that feels authentic, diverse, and forward-thinking. This home isn't just beautifully designed, it's in a lifestyle that invites you to settle in, connect, and stay awhile.
