Description
YES, an ACRE abutting PARKLAND in Chevy Chase INSIDE THE BELTWAY, and with a gorgeous house, too! Set down the driveway and privately tucked away from the street, this Williamsburg colonial has been beautifully reimagined, expanded and fabulously renovated by the current owners, with walls of windows that overlook the amazing lot and the parkland beyond. Featuring a lovely open design and situated to take advantage of the beautiful views, the home includes approximately 4,900 square feet of finished space over three levels. The covered front porch opens to a foyer which looks through the home and to the grounds, and to a main level with a phenomenal chef's kitchen, with breakfast area, walk-in pantry and office nook, that is open to a large living/family room with gas fireplace and the spacious dining room. A separate office with walls of windows is also on this level, along with the mud room, powder room, laundry room and the attached two-car garage. An open stairway leads to the second level with five bedrooms (the fifth is accessed via a skylit bridge!) and three full baths. The fabulous primary has a private balcony and spa-like bath, all with amazing vistas, and a walk-in closet. The lower level includes a recreation room, a sixth bedroom with a walk-in closet and a large full bath - truly a second primary suite behind private doors that is perfect for visitors and in-laws - and an expansive storage room that is an ideal candidate for future expansion if desired. The gorgeous lot, which walks out to the Rock Creek Trail, offers possibilities to be explored - perhaps a pool, tennis or sports courts? The centralized location provides proximity to downtown Bethesda and DC, and to Baltimore and Virginia via the Beltway. The access to shopping, transportation, parks and schools is hard to beat. The fabulous retail of the recently developed Chevy Chase Lake, other nearby shops, and the soon to arrive Purple Line are within walking distance. The metro, shops and restaurants of Bethesda are also close. In addition to Rock Creek Park, area residents enjoy the grounds of Nature Forward (formerly the Audubon Society), the fields and playgrounds of Candy Cane City, and Meadowbrook Stables. Neighborhood bonuses include North Chevy Chase Elementary and the fabulous North Chevy Chase Swimming Pool Association. NCCSPA membership is available by application and offers three pools, swim and diving teams, plus year-round tennis, social activities, community events, and more. This is the perfect location for those who love the connection with nature but desire the conveniences of the city close at hand. This spectacular private retreat is a singular opportunity - don't miss it!
