The main level features gleaming hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and elegant crown molding and trim throughout. The chef’s kitchen showcases custom wood cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances—including a convection oven, Advantium microwave, gas cooktop, and a new dishwasher (2025)—and a sunlit breakfast area with serene views of the bucolic backyard. The inviting living room filled with natural light and enhanced by a wood-burning fireplace with a striking stone surround, which can be converted to gas if desired. An adjacent formal dining room offers the perfect setting for entertaining. A versatile study with French doors and built-in cabinetry, and a conveniently located powder room complete the main level. Upstairs, the spacious owner’s suite features trayed ceilings, two large walk-in closets with built-in shelving, and a luxurious en-suite bath with dual vanities, walk-in shower, soaking tub, and peaceful tree-lined views. Three additional generously sized bedrooms, each with hardwood floors and ample closet space, share a well-appointed hallway bath with a dual-sink vanity and tub/shower combo. Bedroom level laundry room, complete with utility sink and cabinetry, offers added storage and convenience. The top floor is dedicated to a private secondary suite, featuring a large bedroom with two closets and its own en-suite bath, ideal for guests or multi-generational living. The lower level is ideal for flexible living, featuring a large rec room with egress window, a separate exterior entrance, a spacious bedroom with an updated full bath, perfect for an in-law suite, au pair bedroom, gym, or potential basement rental opportunity. Enjoy the outdoors from the inviting front porch overlooking a beautifully manicured front yard, or relax in the fenced rear yard framed by mature trees, complete with a storage shed. Additional highlights include a new water heater (2025), no HOA, and a detached one-car garage with a shared driveway and additional parking pad, offering off-street parking for up to 4 cars. You’ll appreciate the fully owned 8.08 kW solar panel system, installed in 2022, which significantly lowers monthly electric bills. Ideally located just moments from NIH, Walter Reed, Medical Center Metro (Red Line), neighborhood parks, tennis courts, and the vibrant Downtown Bethesda, offering an array of shopping, dining, and entertainment options. Zoned for the highly sought-after Bradley Hills ES, Pyle MS, and Walt Whitman HS. Don’t miss this rare gem in a premier Bethesda location!

Bethesda

Getting ahead in a relaxed fashion. While this DC suburb used to be well on the fringes of urban life and entertainment, today’s Bethesda is anything but boring. With a bustling, pedestrian-friendly downtown featuring high-end dining and shops, this self-confident community is on the move.
