Welcome to 3413 Pendleton Drive … Contemporary design and thoughtful site planning in Hammond Wood! This Mid-Century Modern masterpiece was designed by acclaimed architect Charles Goodman. Goodman was Washington’s foremost modernist architect working in single family housing in the 1950’s. Designated as a historic neighborhood on the National Register of Historic Places, Hammond Wood includes 58 contemporary single family homes on a tract of heavily wooded, rolling land.

3413 Pendleton is a Goodman classic, retaining the original elements characteristic of his work: vaulted ceilings, walls of floor-to-ceiling windows, combination living/dining room with signature brick end-wall fireplace, original wood paneling, period lighting and more. The home was added on to in 1969, expanding the kitchen and adding doors to the rear deck. The floorpan includes three bedrooms and two full baths, living and dining rooms and a lower level family room with access to the backyard.

Goodman believed that good design could influence how people live and how they relate to nature. His residential designs aimed to unify the home with its surroundings, and this one is no exception! Nestled on a bucolic 10,553 sf lot, this home is surrounded by mature trees and plants including native Rhododendron, Azaleas, Magnolias and Dogwood trees … Spectacular throughout the seasons! A spacious deck, flagstone pathways and lush flower beds add charm to outdoor living.

Property updates: freshly painted interior, refinished hardwood floors, new carpet, renovated upper level bathroom, recent new roof.
