The Story
The brief was simple: a home that feels like it has always belonged on this street, but lives like it was built yesterday. Trophy answered with a blend of natural stone, smooth stucco, and hand-cut slate — a combination that gives the exterior a layered, almost European texture that sets it apart from every other custom home in Chevy Chase. Wrought-iron Juliet balconies, arched garage doors, and copper finials add character without feeling costumed. Inside, the craftsman bones hold: wide-plank white oak floors, coffered ceilings, and a kitchen designed around the way this family actually cooks and gathers. The result is a home that is unmistakably Trophy — precise, considered, and built to be lived in for generations.
