This idyllic, secluded property of .73 acres offers a stately 6,800 sq ft custom home nestled in lush, mature landscaping. One of four exclusive lots from the subdivision of an historic estate, it is set back 150 ft from Bradley Blvd behind a landscaped berm. In the Walt Whitman, Pyle, and Bradley Hills school district, this home is just minutes to downtown Bethesda's diverse, vibrant dining/shopping and Metro, and offers luxury, comfort and privacy in a beautiful natural setting. Built and designed with a wonderful circular flow for everyday living and easy entertaining, the quality of every feature is evident throughout this expansive home. Enter through the marble-floored foyer and step up into an open center hall and rooms featuring rich hickory hardwood floors, 10' ceilings, oversized windows and columns that dramatically frame the formal living room with wood-burning/gas fireplace and the adjacent spacious dining room. A library is on your right as you follow the center hallway to the enormous kitchen with space for a full-size dining table and access to the all-weather sunroom. Stainless steel appliances, a gas range and double-oven, a large island with a prep sink, seating and wine rack, extensive custom cabinetry, including space for TV, desk and display, make this a dream gourmet kitchen and a focal point for the home. Step down from the kitchen into the large family room with a wall of windows and built-ins that frame another gas fireplace. French doors lead to the large Trex deck with pergola that wraps the side of the home to provide ideal outdoor entertaining space. Completing the main level are the marble-floored powder room and large laundry room with built-in pantry space, counter and cabinets. The upper level has four bedrooms, offering flexibility and options for home office/school. The generous primary suite, with its sizable and specially designed walk-in closet, glass-enclosed gas fireplace, vaulted ceiling, and light-filled en-suite bath with marble floor and double vanity, soaking tub and glass-enclosed shower, offers a 2nd floor oasis. One bedroom, currently outfitted with built-ins as the perfect home office, shares a double vanity bath with another bedroom, both with walk-in closets. The 4th bedroom has an en-suite bath and its own walk-in closet with attic access. A separate space with built-in desk and shelves serves as a perfect small office/study area. The lower level offers tons of space for recreation, entertainment and guests. Features include an expansive recreation room, a fully equipped wet bar, a large bedroom with walk-in closet, a full bath and a walk-in cedar closet. A separate finished space currently configured as a gym with a mirrored wall and an additional wet bar could be a great space for a media room! A large unfinished utility/storage room adds to the substantial storage space throughout the house. A fully enclosed breezeway accessible from the kitchen and back deck connects to the oversized two-car garage, above which is the fully-finished sun-filled bonus room, currently serving as an artist's studio. With a private entrance, balcony overlooking the wooded backyard, and separately zoned to support a full bath and kitchenette, this private space could also be configured as a guest suite, home office, or self-sufficient Airbnb. The exterior is equally delightful with its professionally designed landscaping and careful attention through the years to bring the property to life year-round. The plethora of plantings include numerous specimen trees (Japanese maple, dogwood, Chinese Fringe, crepe myrtle), redbuds, azaleas, hydrangeas, peonies and a host of beautiful annuals. The kitchen window overlooks the rock garden. The wooded backyard provides natural beauty and also offers the opportunity to create additional outdoor recreation and entertaining space that complements an abundance of nearby golf courses, local parks and pools, walking trails and outdoor activities.
