North 3343 Of Interest to An Exclusive Few To those people prominent in the social and official life of Washington— who have not yet found residence suited to their complete satisfaction, with facil- ities adequate to their entertaining re- quirements, may we ask consideration of a Master Home? It is located in the most exclusive and picturesque section of Spring Valley. Commanding in its environment; inspiring in the dignity of its pure English architecture; and en- thusing with its multitude of conven- iences which you would specify in a home of your own planning: but are not to be found in another home al- ready erected. It is quite within reason to claim this house to be the finest home avail- able for purchase in Washington: and in a location unsurpassed for scenic beauty and convenience of access. The price of this Master Home, and the terms upon which it may be ac- quired are of interest where present rental expenses are around three hun- dred dollars a month. We will appreciate your critical in- spection of 4900 Glenbrook Road, Spring Valley—at any time suiting your conven ience. Perhaps tomorrow, Sunday, when our representative will be at the home all day. Or, may we make an appointment for a private show- ing—of course, unattended by any in- sistent opportuning? Motor out Massachusetts Avenue to Nebraska Avenue—following the Miller signs, which will lead directly to Glenbrook Road. W. C. & A. N.
