The home has received a documented $436,000+ in improvements during the 20 year ownership of the current residents!<br/><br/> This warm spacious home is where the Capital Crescent & Little Falls Stream Trails become your backyard, just a three minute walk away. The trails are packed with nature and wild life and the neighbors are wonderful. This home is equally ideal for raising a family or for entertaining with its kitchen/family room, packed with high end appliances ( Gaggenau, Thermador, Miele, Sub Zero)<br/><br/> The large screened porch is ideal for summer dinners with family and friends or your morning coffee listening to birdsong. The home also includes a unique piece of European history as its current owners inserted a piece of the Berlin Wall into the chimney of the fireplace when they built the rear addition! How cool is that?<br/><br/> The renovated Primary bedroom has been enhanced and expanded with custom closets while its en suite bathroom has ample storage and a spacious shower featuring a rain shower head, wall spray jet and a handheld spray wand. <br/><br/> The garage comes equipped with ample shelving and an electric vehicle charger.<br/><br/> The lower level office could also serve as a fifth bedroom if desired. The home features wonderfully designed front and backyard patios, a deck connecting the kitchen, barbecue area and screened porch, and mostly native plantings for a low maintenance exterior. <br/><br/> Just off Mass Ave., near Westmoreland Circle, Sumner is only minutes from Downtown, Georgetown, and Bethesda/Chevy Chase and also affords an easy commute to neighboring Maryland and Virginia as well as access to all area airports. The shops, restaurants and Metro Friendship Heights, Chevy Chase/Bethesda are within a short distance, as are many parks.
