Perched prominently and ideally located in the Town of Chevy Chase, this distinctive whitewashed brick home offers timeless character, generous living spaces, and beautifully designed outdoor living. A professionally landscaped front yard with stunning hardscape welcomes you into the home's classic center hall. The large formal living room is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and flows into a light-filled reading room with custom built-ins. The expansive dining room is dinner party ready and can easily accommodate 12 or more guests and features classic chair rail and crown moulding details. The open kitchen features updated stainless appliances, including an induction cooktop, expansive prep space with newer quartz countertops and along with generous cabinet space providing excellent storage. The main level family room, arguably the heart of the home, is centered with a gas fireplace flanked by custom built-ins and is flooded with light, bringing a bit of the landscaped rear yard inside. A main level half bathroom provides an elevated level of convenience. The current sellers undertook an in-depth, six-figure hardscaping project in 2022, regrading the parcel and replacing all previous stonework, creating a lovely and extremely functional blue stone patio space and idyllic yard, ideal for entertaining or dining al fresco. The second level features four bedrooms and three full bathrooms, including a king-sized primary suite with walk-in closet and recently renovated spa-like primary bathroom. A second “primary” bedroom with updated en suite full bathroom is ideal for guests. The finished third floor is the perfect work from home retreat. The partially finished lower level includes a wonderful lower-level family room or play space with brand new carpet and fireplace, an updated utility room with recently upgraded half bathroom and a huge, day lit storage room, that could easily be converted to finished living space in the future. Freshly painted and with updated systems throughout, this very special home provides a flexible layout ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The home’s elevated setting creates a wonderful sense of privacy and presence all while being a stone's throw to downtown Bethesda, major commuting corridors, the prestigious Columbia and Chevy Chase Country Clubs and top-rated schools.
