Welcome to this turn-key and light flooded special unit that has been thoughtfully renovated to perfection! A rare two bedroom PLUS den -- ideal as an office or use as a 3rd bedroom with custom glass barn doors. One of the largest floor plans in the desirable, friendly and well managed Kenwood Condominiums -- with 1,467 square feet of move-in ready living space. Unit 1217 has new flooring, fresh neutral paint, a renovated white kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite counter tops and island seating. The open floor plan is ideal for how we live today with the kitchen flowing into the dining room with a chandelier and open to the expansive living room and out to the patio with long -range views for relaxing and dining al fresco.

Down the hall, past the linen closet to the renovated full bath with classic subway tile, new vanity and lighting and tub and on to the first expansive bedroom with never-walked on new carpet, large closet and picture window overlooking the grassy grounds. The primary bedroom delivers so much space, -- also brand new carpet and a large walk-in closet with custom storage/shelving and a fully renovated white and pristine en suite bath with marble topped vanity, new on-trend lighting, and walk-in shower with niche shelving.

Updated laundry rooms are conveniently located on each floor; there is extra storage for the unit on the B Level (#1217). The building also has an on-site fitness center and The Kenwood Room for use by residents for parties -- complete with a big screen television, plenty of table seating and standing room, bathrooms, and a kitchen.

Out the door experience numerous amenities: an oversized in-ground pool and deck, scenic grounds, picnic and grilling areas, and leafy promenade. Located in a prime Bethesda location near the newly developing Westbard Square and walkable to the Whole Foods and the shops and conveniences in Kenwood Station like Sarah's Handmade ice cream, Ledo's Pizza and Georgetown Bagels. Easy access to both Downtown Bethesda and Friendship Heights with Metro access and popular shopping, dining, movie theatre, boutiques, and more. The Capital Crescent Trail is close by for biking, walking or running. Commuter routes nearby including I-495, Wisconsin and Connecticut Avenues; the Metro Bus stop is out the front door on River Rd. and Reagan Airport is just 10 miles away and Dulles is 21 miles.
