Listing details

OPEN HOUSE CANCELED! UNDER CONTRACT! Nestled on a peaceful cul-de-sac with no through traffic, this contemporary-style home offers style and unparalleled accessibility. Located in the heart of one of Bethesda’s most convenient neighborhoods, you are less than a mile from the Grosvenor Metro, Wildwood Shopping Center, and the scenic Bethesda Trolley Trail. The residence makes a striking first impression with an open floor plan accentuated by soaring ceilings and oversized windows that allow abundant natural light to fill every corner. The heart of the home is the dramatic family room, which features a stone fireplace and wet bar, creating an ideal atmosphere for both cozy evenings and grand entertaining. Culinary enthusiasts will appreciate the renovated kitchen, which boasts stylish wood cabinetry, quartz countertops, and a full suite of stainless steel appliances, including a gas stove and a dedicated beverage fridge. The interior has been freshly painted throughout, complemented by beautiful wood floors and brand-new carpeting throughout. The upper level is thoughtfully designed for comfort and convenience, featuring a full-size laundry room and three spacious bedrooms, each with a designated bathroom. The primary suite serves as a true retreat with two large walk-in closets. The second bedroom offers a charming window seat, while the third bedroom—currently utilized as a custom dressing room with built-ins—can easily be returned to its original use. On the lower levels, you will find a fourth bedroom and full bath (currently serving as an office), alongside a private home office featuring walls of glass. An additional finished recreation level provides the perfect footprint for a home gym or media room. The property offers a two-car garage and a fenced backyard complete with a deck and patio for outdoor enjoyment. A gas-powered generator provides power in the event of an outage. Residents enjoy a low-maintenance lifestyle, as a modest monthly fee of $220 covers lawn maintenance and basic landscape care. Whether you are commuting via Metro, the Beltway, I-270 or walking to nearby Fleming Park and Grosvenor Market, this home ensures you are perfectly positioned near NIH and some of Bethesda's favorite shops and restaurants. This beautiful home is move-in ready. To help you visualize the layout, virtually staged photos are included in the photo gallery, as well as photos of the vacant spaces.
