About This Neighborhood
Where Washington's Most Powerful Residents Live
Kalorama is not simply an affluent DC neighborhood — it is the address of the Washington establishment. Nestled on a hillside overlooking Rock Creek Park, between Connecticut Avenue and Massachusetts Avenue's Embassy Row, Kalorama has been the residential choice of US presidents, Supreme Court justices, Secretaries of State, Federal Reserve governors, senior senators, and the most prominent figures in Washington diplomatic life for over a century.
Six US presidents have called Kalorama home — Woodrow Wilson, William Howard Taft, Warren Harding, Herbert Hoover, Franklin Roosevelt, and Barack Obama, who purchased his post-presidential home at 2446 Belmont Road NW. Jeff Bezos owns the largest private residence in Washington DC in Kalorama — a $23 million property on S Street. The French Ambassador's residence is on Kalorama Road. Twenty-eight embassies and ambassadorial residences are located within the neighborhood's boundaries, making it the most internationally significant residential address in the United States.
The median sale price in Kalorama is $3.4 million — but many of the most significant transactions happen entirely off-market, with no public record, to protect the privacy of buyers who require it. DC ExecuCar serves this community with the absolute discretion its residents demand.
