From the Agent: "In December of 1953 John F. Kennedy and Jackie Bouvier Kennedy signed their first lease as a newly married couple at 3321 Dent Place NW. JFK, still a junior senator at the time, and Jackie enjoyed hosting formal dinner parties and relaxing in the backyard garden. The four-level property has been with the same family since it was built in 1942. This classic Georgetown home retains numerous period details including wide-board Canadian oak floors, a woodburning fireplace, an expansive dining room with real oak molding, and a sun-filled living room with a wall of windows overlooking the garden. Outside, the English garden–style backyard, complete with profusions of purple bearded iris and white peonies, leads down an all-brick walkway to a fully detached garage. 3321 Dent Place NW is located in Georgetown’s West Village, just a short walk from Volta Park, Wisconsin Avenue, M Street, and countless shopping and dining venues."

Refinished Canadian oak floors run throughout the main living room, which also features floor-to-ceiling glazing and direct access to the backyard.
