The Cooper Condominiums
Located at 2007 Wyoming Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20009 | Kalorama
On a street known for condominium and cooperative buildings, the Cooper offers an intriguing twist. Originally built around 1890, this was originally a Georgian-style single-family mansion with a carriage house in the rear. The property later served as a bed-and-breakfast. But in 2018, the graceful brick home with its front columns and mansard roof was converted into 18 modern and luxurious condo units. The Cooper is located at 2007 Wyoming Street in the heart of the Kalorama neighborhood, across from the newer Wyoming Plaza condo building, and close to other stalwarts such as the Dresden, 2101 Connecticut, and the Carthage.

The interior gut renovation at the Cooper went above and beyond the norm, preserving the tall windows as well as some remade nods to yesteryear, such as the thick crown molding, wainscoting, and pocket doors. Also notable are the dramatic top level dormers. These traditional architectural details meld seamlessly with modern finishes and highlights, from open gourmet kitchens to heated marble floors in the bathrooms. The floors are also quite stunning, with brushed white oak laid in herringbone patterns. It’s all part of a careful effort from the Potomac Construction Group to provide bespoke lifestyle options for prospective condo buyers who desire a more intimate setting than some of the larger buildings in the area.

One of Washington’s most affluent and desirable communities, Kalorama has long been home to ex-presidents and business titans. The hilly neighborhood northwest of Dupont Circle also hosts several foreign embassies. While Kalorama’s early history dates back to a single, sprawling estate, the early 20th century saw a rash of construction, including numerous landmark apartment buildings that were marketed for dignitaries and upper class denizens of the day. During that busy redevelopment era, a number of elegant mansions were razed in order to make way for the new, larger residential buildings. The Cooper is one of the few homes along this section of Wyoming Avenue in the Kalorama Triangle to have escaped that transitional period. Today, it stands as a reminder of the neighborhood’s infancy, while also serving as a boutique condominium that successfully brings the past and present together.
