CONTRACTS TO BE PRESENTED TUESDAY AUGUST 17 AT NOON!!! The quintessential Chevy Chase street, lined with trees and classic residences is the setting for this timeless brick home, which is available for the first time in 30 years. Enhanced with lovely gardens, gorgeous Crepe Myrtles in front and back, and flagstone walkways and patios, this home extends a warm welcome from every angle. Hardwood floors, crown molding and vintage glass doorknobs exude the timeless character of the interior, which includes a spacious living room with a fireplace, a light-filled dining space and a wonderful renovated kitchen with granite surfaces and stainless steel appliances. Ideal for today's "work from home" lifestyle, the owners added a wing on the main level that they have used as office space. French doors open to the back terrace and gardens, creating a perfect backdrop for your own home office. Upstairs, there are 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The owner's bedroom has its own private bath. There is an expansive attic space that opens from the upper level hallway. The attic level would provide a great opportunity to expand the footprint of the home. The lower level features a large recreation room with built-in closets and storage, a separate living space, a full bath and the laundry/utility room. Step out back to your own garden sanctuary, where the deck and terrace extend every option for outdoor entertaining and relaxation. There is a one-car detached garage as well, which can house all the lawn equipment, bikes, and/or provide the opportunity to finish as a studio/guest space or playhouse. This home is just 3 blocks from beautiful Norwood Park, 5 blocks to Somerset Elementary School and has easy access to Friendship Heights, downtown Bethesda and the DC line. A few blocks in any direction will lead to parks and playgrounds, restaurants, shops and entertaining! It is located on one of the town's prettiest streets and is surrounded by beautifully maintained original homes and stunning custom designs. This home presents a "right size" footprint for so many: the move-up buyer, retiree's looking for urban/suburban walkability, or the buyer looking to add their own design imprint and enjoy Chevy Chase living! From its classic style to its bucolic garden setting, this lovely residence says "Welcome Home".
