You will not find another house like this in the area at this price point! This modern, custom-built VICTORIAN is a treasure trove of architectural details of yesteryear from gingerbread moulding to a lofty turret room, yet without the disadvantages of an old home. Situated tucked away in a coveted Capital View Park neighborhood walking distance to historic Kensington with all its dining and shopping options, the fairytale classics come alive as soon as you pull into the driveway. Invited in by a wraparound porch with copper roof and charming professional cottage garden (perennial and designed to please in every season), enter a welcoming foyer to the formal living room with stunning antique fireplace mantle and bronzed frontispiece, a sitting room meant for coffee on lazy mornings, and a formal dining room for intimate gatherings and special occasions.
Chefs will love the Tuscan-European inspired table-space kitchen featuring Italian travertine tile, Portuguese hand painted backsplash, beautiful custom pantry/dining closet, farmhouse sink, double-oven, and stainless-steel appliances with a triple-door fridge. The kitchen connects to the Great Room with a brick GAS FIREPLACE and plantation shutters, as well as to a truly incredible large three-season covered SCREENED PORCH big enough for sitting AND dining areas, plus an attached open deck (maintenance-free Brazilian hardwood) with space to grill and sip coffee at a bistro table.
Upstairs, enter through elegant custom double doors to the primary suite, a true retreat, with a separate sitting area and a bath with a step-up jacuzzi soaking tub for stargazing through the skylight, separate glass shower, and beautiful details like inlaid decorative tiles and gilded swan faucet. The distinctive rounded turret room above is ideal for an artist, inspired writer or one seeking some deep quiet for remote work. The fourth bedroom has been repurposed into a sophisticated dressing room with plenty of beautiful built-in closets and shelves.
The home’s basement, a walkout lower level, serves as an additional hobby area, bedroom, or OFFICE SPACE, complete with a full bath and a small wet bar, plus a cedar closet and extra storage room.
Finally, step out to the truly private backyard oasis with an above-ground pool and patio with pleasant views for lounging or hosting. Enjoy a two-car detached garage, with electric for that hobbyist. Own in a desirable and established community with lots of new growth (new brewery and another cafe coming!), centralized location, walking distance to coffee shops, grocery, Farmer’s Market, parades and community events, and all that Kensington has to offer while also being convenient to Bethesda, 495, ICC, and the Marc. For that discerning buyer who has been waiting for that one of a kind, unforgettable home, this one is it!
