beautifully detailed residence on a quiet tree-lined street
Tucked onto a quiet tree-lined street behind a picket fence, this beautifully detailed residence exemplifies the timeless appeal of arts and crafts style architecture. Flowering wisteria vines, lush landscaping, and an inviting flagstone porch extend a warm welcome to the five bedroom/4.5 bath home, which is arranged over three levels. Enhanced with custom millwork, high ceilings, rich hardwoods, and stunning window arrays, the floorplan is saturated with sunlight. Carefully curated lighting fixtures and window treatments perfectly complement the casually elegant living spaces, which include a living room, a spacious dining room, and a kitchen designed for entertaining. Appointed with both a walk-in and a butler's pantry, the kitchen features classic white cabinets, muted natural stone surfaces, a large island, and professional-series Thermador appliances. A long banquette lines a wide window in the breakfast area and overlooks the backyard. Ideal for day-to-day living or gatherings, the adjacent family room features a gas fireplace flanked by built-ins and opens to a patio and the fully fenced backyard. A mudroom adjoins the two-car garage, and the main level also includes a private home office and powder room. Upstairs there are four spacious bedrooms, three full baths and the laundry room. A welcome sanctuary, the primary suite features an expansive bedroom area, his-and-hers walk-in closets, and a luxurious spa-like bath with a soaking tub, oversized shower and dual vanities. Just off the primary suite is a sitting room or second home office space...offering the flexible design that every buyer welcomes. Three additional bedrooms include two with a Jack-and-Jill bath and one with a private full bath. The lower level is finished to the same exacting standards, with a bedroom opening to another full bath, a fitness room, and a large storage space. The oversized recreation room has home theater seating, a game table and a lounge area, offering every option for football games with friends, movie nights, or quiet family time. This home has easy access to downtown Bethesda, NIH, excellent public and private schools and all of the attractions and events that the nation's capital offers. For the buyer seeking turn-key luxury living in one of Bethesda's most popular neighborhoods, this one checks every box!
