Unit 2207 at Modera Sedici

The Italian Embassy in Washington, D.C., is one of the most desirable pieces of real estate in the entire D.C. Metro region. The existing building on the site served as the home of the Italian Embassy from 1925-1977, and continued to operate as the Italian chancery until 2002. The building was designed in a neo-renaissance style by architects Whitney Warren and Charles D. Wetmore. Warren and Wetmore also designed the Grand Central Terminal in New York City. Mill Creek will preserve the history of this venerable building, while also developing a new nine-story high-rise on the property as well. In total, the community will consist of 134 luxury apartment homes with two levels of below-grade parking, consisting of studios, one-, two-, and three-bedroom floor plans. These homes will offer a level of prominence and prestige that presents significant value for both residents and investors. In addition, more than 2,000 square feet of historical Embassy space will be preserved and transformed into amenity areas that promote a European cosmopolitan aesthetic. The 2020 NAHB Community of the Year, includes a resident clubhouse located in the Embassy’s Grand Ballroom, in addition to a business center, rooftop terrace, club-quality fitness center, and landscaped outdoor terraces. The outdoor public/private terraces, in addition to the Embassy’s historic Courtyard, will offer a very distinctive, open, and green environment, which is uncommon in a downtown D.C. apartment community. The preservation of the Embassy’s historic spaces, combined with the addition of modern homes and luxurious amenities, will create a truly unique living atmosphere for the District.
