Listing details

Better Than New! Luxury living across four finished levels. Built in 2021, this custom home is completely turn-key and ready for you to move in before school starts! Wrapped in classic Hardiplank siding and stone, the exterior offers timeless curb appeal anchored by a solid wood eight-foot front entry door and an oh-so-charming front porch. It’s the perfect spot to carry on the tradition of sipping mimosas while cheering on Turkey Trot runners every Thanksgiving morning. Inside, the home is sweetly decorated with a crisp elegance, accented by hardwood floors and custom plantation shutter window treatments throughout. The light-filled main level effortlessly balances formal and everyday living. Host gatherings in the elegant formal living and dining rooms, or gather in the heart of the home: a fabulous gourmet kitchen featuring a massive island with seating, a walk-in pantry, and a convenient butler’s pantry. The kitchen opens seamlessly to a family room anchored by decorative beamed ceilings and a cozy gas fireplace. Tucked neatly away from the main living area, you’ll find a private home office, a discrete powder room, and a spacious mudroom with a coat closet and custom cubbies designed to handle backpacks, sports equipment, and winter gear with ease. Directly off the mudroom is the finished two-car garage, complete with epoxy flooring, storage solutions, and keypad entry for secure, convenient access. Upstairs, the second level centers around a private family room—an ideal spot for board games or quiet reading before bed—and a full-sized laundry room with built-in cabinetry. The primary suite is a true sanctuary, featuring two custom walk-in closets and a neutral, luxuriously appointed bathroom complete with dual sinks, a deep soaking tub, a large separate shower, and a private water closet. Three additional bedrooms on this level all feature walk-in closets, with one offering a private ensuite bath and the other two sharing a functional buddy bath. Continuing up to the fourth level, a versatile loft space offers a large room ideal for a second home office, playroom, or media lounge, alongside a fifth bedroom and a full bath. The finished lower level is designed for entertaining and flexibility, outfitted with durable LVP flooring throughout. The vast recreation room features a large bar and direct door access to the backyard. This level also includes a dedicated exercise room, a sixth bedroom, another full bath, and plenty of dedicated storage space for holiday decor and old bowling trophies. Step outside from the rec room to enjoy a beautiful flagstone patio with built-in fire pit, surrounded by yard space. The backyard also features a custom built, free-standing storage shed perfect for stowing bikes, outdoor toys, and lawn tools. This home offers four full levels of thoughtful design, abundant storage, and turn-key convenience, all just blocks from Downtown Bethesda and the NIH.
