Property Description

Welcome to this special home located just minutes from NIH, Walter Reed Medical Center, downtown Bethesda, I-495, and I-270. Ideally sited on a corner lot across from the entrance path to Rock Creek Park, the home is framed by mature trees and features an elevated stone-accented front porch that sets the tone for the craftsmanship inside. Step into the main level and you are welcomed by a stunning great room with a soaring 20- foot coffered ceiling, dramatic picture windows that flood the space with natural light, and a natural stone gas fireplace that anchors the room. The open floor plan connects seamlessly to the gourmet kitchen, where Viking appliances, a large center island, custom Kraftmaid cabinetry, and generous eat-in space make everyday living and entertaining effortless. A butler’s bar with wine fridge and a functional mudroom off the true two-car garage add convenience, while the dining room, a bright separate living/music room, and a private office with oversized windows provide both formal and flexible spaces. A powder room and a laundry room with a new washer/dryer (2023) complete this level and sliding glass doors open to a beautifully hardscaped patio with custom stonework, firepit, and private hot tub area, all within a fully fenced backyard. Upstairs, the primary suite is a retreat of its own with vaulted ceilings, a separate sitting area, and not one but three walk-in closets. The spa-inspired bath showcases floor-to ceiling stonework, a large shower, separate jetted soaking tub, dual vanities, and a private water closet. Three additional spacious bedrooms complete the second floor: two share a Jack-and-Jill bath while the third offers its own en-suite bath and walk-in closet. The third floor reveals another large and bright bedroom suite with a giant walk-in closet and private full bath, ideal for guests, an au pair, or a teen retreat. The walk-out lower level is equally impressive, with a sunlit entertainment space anchored by a custom stone wet bar, a dedicated movie room with a giant screen, and a large guest bedroom with yet another oversized walk-in closet and full bath. Multiple storage areas provide room for everything. Built with extremely solid construction and designed with thoughtful details, the home features true hardwood floors throughout, double staircases, crown molding and nine-foot ceilings on every level, natural stone finishes in every bathroom, central vacuum (including in the garage), an alarm system, and fresh paint throughout. With seven walk-in closets and endless storage, the home blends high-end luxury with practical everyday living. From the stone-based front porch to the fully fenced yard with gates, firepit, and hot tub retreat, this property is as remarkable outdoors as it is inside. With its blend of timeless craftsmanship, exceptional design, and an unbeatable location, this Bethesda home is truly a must-see!
