A Jewel in One of Washington’s Most Treasured Enclaves

Originally built as the Borsecnik-Weil residence, once a modest mid-century modern home, this residence was thoughtfully reimagined in the mid-1990s by Mark McInturff, FAIA—one of the region’s most respected residential architects. Charged with expanding the home while maintaining its architectural clarity, McInturff introduced refined bedroom suites, a sculptural two-story gallery serving as both corridor and lightwell, and a design that pulls every major space toward the deep gardens and rare parkland beyond. The home’s presence is quiet, composed, and deeply rooted in its site—offering a sense of serenity that’s increasingly rare in the Washington area. The transformation went on to win five architectural awards, and McInturff’s involvement in the neighborhood continued with several other private residences and the design of Somerset’s own community poolhouse.

Set back from the street with a private driveway and garage, the home unfolds through a sequence of spaces—light-filled, volumetric, and layered. Upon entering, you are drawn down a long, gallery-like spine that terminates in framed views of the garden. Above, bridgeways lead to the primary suite, and daylight moves continuously throughout, guided by carefully placed openings and material transitions. Every detail reflects intention.

This home is nestled within the Town of Somerset, a coveted enclave in Chevy Chase where neighborliness, civic pride, and thoughtful self-governance shape a uniquely vibrant community. As an incorporated town—not a homeowner’s association—Somerset manages its own services and amenities with care and intention, from the tree-lined streets to its tennis courts and beloved community pool.

Somerset is known as a “big-city small town”—a quiet, leafy refuge just minutes from downtown Washington where town meetings matter, traditions endure, and neighbors gather for summer events like the Fourth of July parade. Generations of families choose to stay here, drawn not only by exceptional homes and location but by the culture of continuity and belonging. To live here is to be part of something lasting.
