It is ideally located close to downtown Bethesda offering both convenience and peaceful neighborhood living. This six bedroom, five 1/2 baths custom built home features about 5,000 square feet on four finished levels perfect for entertaining and everyday living. The high quality of craftsmanship of this home is exhibited throughout the combination a stone and hardyplank exterior, an expansive open floor plan, tall ceilings (many with tray ceilings) and extensive use of moldings. With great circular flow, open & airy, yet offering traditional warmth, this home features generously proportioned rooms, cherry hardwood floors in many of the rooms, new carpet in most of the bedrooms, plantation shutters on many windows plus new waterproof vinyl flooring in the lower level. Enter via the stone front porch and the beautiful wood door with its glass accents into the welcoming foyer with a view all the way through the house. Just off the entry is both the gracious dining room--big enough for a seated dinner for ten—and the Living Room/Parlor which is perfect for today’s need for a separate quiet area from the Family Room. The oversized chef's Kitchen with freshly painted white cabinets, a large island, granite counters, stainless steel appliances including a Thermador 4-burner gas range with a grill & griddle, 3 ovens, beverage center with wine fridge and a separate pantry. Kitchen is open to the sunny, large Family Room with its gas fireplace and coffered ceiling. Also next to the Kitchen is space for casual dining. A convenient mudroom with access from the 1-car garage, side entry to backyard and an elegant powder room round out this floor. The first upper level hosts the large Primary Suite with hardwood floor, a gas fireplace, two walk-in closets, and a large en-suite bath with a soaking tub and a shower with a glass door enclosure plus dual sink vanity. Bedroom 2 (with a hardwood floor) and Bedroom 3 (with new carpeting) share a Jack-and-Jill bath with double vanities. Bedroom 4 has new carpeting plus an en-suite bath. Rounding out this level is the laundry closet. The second upper level features a very private 5th Bedroom with new carpeting and a full bath- perfect to host those overnight guests or a teenager seeking some space for reading/entertaining. In addition, there is a large bonus room perfect for either an additional sleeping area, homework/home office space, craft room, etc. The lower level has new waterproof vinyl flooring throughout and includes the 6th Bedroom, a full bath, an exercise area, and a Recreation Room with a large movie screen & blackout blinds- perfect for movie nights. From the Recreation Room, there are walkout stairs to the backyard which is fully fenced. Located within minutes to the Hillmead Neighborhood Park, close to the NIH Campus and with the Bethesda Metro 2.0 miles from the home, as well as the endless restaurants, shopping, gyms and more that downtown Bethesda has to offer.
