Listing details

Join us courtside from 12-3 on Sunday! Tucked away in the heart of Bethesda’s coveted Tulip Hill community, this one-of-a-kind residence offers a seamless blend of sophisticated design, luxury, and effortless living. Thoughtfully designed for both grand-scale entertaining and everyday life, the home seamlessly brings together beautifully appointed living spaces, exceptional amenities, and an unparalleled array of indoor and outdoor features—all set on a private 0.33-acre lot. An inviting front porch welcomes you into a dramatic main-level layout, where a grand foyer is flanked by a large private study and a separate home office. At the heart of the home is the gourmet chef’s kitchen, distinguished by exceptional storage and designed to accommodate every culinary need. A large center island, walk-in pantry, breakfast banquette, two sinks, two dishwashers, 60” range and seltzer faucet, create an ideal setting for entertaining and are especially well-suited for professional chefs or kosher living. Across from the kitchen, the spectacular formal dining room comfortably accommodates a table seating 12. At the rear of the home, the light-filled great room features a cozy fireplace and opens seamlessly to the yard and a stunning screened porch with a ceiling fan and built-in heaters, creating an inviting year-round outdoor living space. A grilling patio with a dedicated gas line makes outdoor cooking effortless. The expansive rear yard is designed for both relaxation and recreation, featuring a custom multi-sport court with dedicated lines for pickleball, basketball, volleyball, and shuffleboard. Few homes offer this level of private recreational amenity right outside the back door. Designed for convenience and accessibility, the main level also includes a mudroom, powder room, elevator access to all levels, and an attached two-car garage with car charger. A whole-house generator provides additional peace of mind. Upstairs, the home’s luxurious private retreat begins with a serene primary suite featuring a separate sitting room, oversized custom his-and-hers walk-in closets, and an expansive spa-inspired bath with dual vanities, a deep soaking tub, and a glass-enclosed two-person shower. Four additional oversized bedrooms each feature walk-in closets and direct access to full baths. Throughout the home, premium Toto bidet toilets add an additional level of comfort and convenience. A spacious laundry room completes the upper level. The finished lower level is designed for recreation, wellness, and flexible living. A massive recreation room with a fully equipped second kitchen provides an ideal setting for entertaining, extended stays, or multigenerational living. The level also includes a dedicated exercise room, a private sixth bedroom with a large closet, and an adjacent full bath—perfect for guests or an au pair. Abundant finished and unfinished storage offers exceptional flexibility for everything from seasonal belongings to recreational equipment. Outside, the beautifully landscaped 0.33-acre grounds create a private oasis. In addition to the multi-sport court, mature blackberry and raspberry bushes and peach, fig, and persimmon trees provide a unique and inviting landscape that can be enjoyed throughout the seasons. Located in the heart of Tulip Hill, a peaceful, tree-lined neighborhood celebrated for its strong sense of community and proximity to the private Mohican Swimming Pool, the home is zoned for Pyle and Whitman. Enjoy easy access to the C&O Canal Towpath, Glen Echo Park, Capital Crescent Trail, and the Potomac River, while being just minutes from MacArthur Boulevard, downtown Bethesda, and Washington, D.C.
