Property Description

Welcome to The Promenade, Bethesda’s premier, full-service, hi-rise community -- offering resort-style living, modern amenities, and unmatched convenience, sitting on 24 lush, beautifully landscaped acres. This is a rare opportunity to own within this gated community a home with the largest floor plan available, a beautifully renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bath residence featuring 1,448 square feet of bright, open living space and a unique, thoughtfully designed layout. The extra spacious living room, with its south and west views, is flooded with natural light and is perfect for entertaining. It is large enough to be used as a combination living/dining room. The formal dining room can then be used as an office or den, perfect for working or relaxing casually. In every room, large windows illuminate the home while showcasing peaceful garden views and walkways—making you feel connected to the heart of the community. The stunning kitchen has been fully renovated with new cabinetry, modern appliances, beautiful ceramic tile floors, and an elegant, workstation sink and its fixtures. Its vast counterspace will accommodate the most expansive, demanding cooks. Both bathrooms have been tastefully updated with luxury finishes. The home also includes one of the best parking spaces in the building—directly outside the G2 level exit door for easy, direct access. The Promenade makes travel easy, with quick access to Rockville Pike and Old Georgetown Road, as well as I-270 and I-495. One can be almost anywhere in the DC metro area quickly. The Ride-on Metrobus stops in front of the elegant new lobby, making for a short trip to the NIH Metro stop or downtown Bethesda. Residents also enjoy 24-hour concierge service, a high level of security with a gate house and roaming security guards, on-site management, and maintenance services. ■ Fitness & Wellness Bright, windowed fitness center overlooking pool decks and gardens Free weights, cardio, and circuit equipment Olympic-size outdoor pool, heated indoor lap pool, whirlpool, dry saunas, and locker rooms Certified trainers, group exercise and water aerobics classes, and massage therapists ■ Sports & Recreation 7 lighted hard-surface tennis courts and 4 pickleball courts Staffed clubhouse with kitchen and locker rooms Professional tennis instruction, leagues, and social events ■ On-Site Retail & Services Restaurant and bar (with free delivery to one’s unit) Market with deli, groceries, sundries, beer, and wine Dry cleaner, tailor, shoe repair, hair salon with spa Interior design services, boutique, and medical/dental offices Car wash stations with vacuum Six EV charging stations ATM, valet, and package-reception service Ride-On bus to Metro at the front door ■ Community & Lifestyle Rentable party and meeting rooms, private event room with dance floor Library, card room, and internet lounge Film and speaker series, book clubs, card clubs, dinner groups, welcome group, and community garden Fitness and tennis classes, community-hosted events, and in-house instructor access ■ Additional Building Services Storage (nominal yearly rental) and bike rooms, guest suites, outdoor grills, and picnic areas BuildingLink resident communication app, daily activities updates via email, and monthly newsletter Document shredding services and eco-friendly initiatives Commercial-size washers and dryers, underground garages, and abundant free guest parking . The Promenade offers a co-op ownership structure, which results in lower closing costs compared to purchasing a condo. One of the key savings is the absence of a transfer tax or recommendation fee, as you're acquiring shares in a non-profit corporation that owns the entire property rather than real property itself. This home is more than a residence—it’s a lifestyle defined by convenience, community, and comfort in one of Montgomery County’s finest addresses.
