Property Description

OPEN TOMORROW SAT., 1/27 FROM 2-4:00 P.M. Designer details and finishes are found at every turn in this classic and timeless white brick colonial. Sited on a 1/4-acre grassy and deep lot in the sought-after neighborhood of Chevy Chase DC, this well maintained home has recently been renovated and is truly move-in ready. A charming blue door beckons you inside this entertainer's dream with crown moldings, high ceilings, custom built-ins, bespoke window treatments, and on-trend lighting. The functional and pretty portico / mudroom leads into a gracious and welcoming foyer with gleaming hardwoods that open to the main floor's ideal and flexible floor plan -- a grand living room with a wood-burning fireplace, original mantle and custom wood built-in bookshelves with custom lighting -- that flows to a cheery, windowed play room or an ideal space for a family room overlooking the expansive and lush rear yard. The formal dining room leads into the white chef's kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a breakfast table with seating and egress to the herb garden. The main floor office has two custom-crafted built-in desks, file drawers and bookshelves with library lighting, and a wallpapered powder room that delights. Up the stairs with a custom runner you arrive on the second floor landing; there is a large bedroom with two closets, another bedroom with its own private patio -- an ideal spot for star gazing or enjoying morning coffee -- a renovated hall bath with wallpaper and Carrara marble, and the private and light filled tree-top primary retreat with an en suite bath and a walk-in closet. The third floor has a carpeted bedroom and a bonus room currently used as a dreamy walk-in dressing room but can be re-envisioned as a bathroom, den or additional bedroom. The light-filled lower level has a nice-sized foyer that leads to supremely flexible space -- use as the fifth bedroom ideal for an au pair, guests or in laws -- or use that large space as a family or great room with the stone fireplace, ideal for movie night. The full bath was just renovated with a navy & marble vanity and warm brass accents; there is a thoughtfully designed laundry area with high-efficiency machines and folding station, a home gym zone, storage galore, and rear egress to a stone patio for entertaining and al fresco dining under the twinkly string lights. There is also easy interior access to the attached 1-car garage and EV-car charger hook up from the lower level. Located in upper northwest DC in the welcoming and leafy neighborhood of Chevy Chase DC just a quick 25-minute trip downtown with easy access to commuter routes -- I-495, 16th Street, Connecticut Avenue, and Beach Drive.
