205 Bryants Nursery Rd Silver Spring, MD 20905

Live like you're on a permanent vacation in this stunning, custom-designed "deck house" with sweeping views. This warm, inviting home was architecturally designed for its private, wooded, 2+ acre lot. It was built with unique natural materials, such as signature cedar vaulted ceilings, mahogany window casings, and exposed Douglas fir beams. Expansive southern-facing windows create a naturally bright interior and the geothermal heating and cooling system takes full advantage of natural resources. The open floor plan on the upper level conveys a relaxed elegance that sets it apart from other homes in this area. There's a private guest suite with built-in shelving and full bath, and gorgeous family room with a dramatically sloping ceiling and brick, wood burning fireplace. From the kitchen/breakfast area, step out to the large, canopied deck, with steps and an elevator leading down to the patio. Light up the fire pit and you'll spend your evenings out here gazing at the stars year-round! The walkout lower level has a rec room and laundry/mud room with access to the patio and detached 2.5-car garage. There are four bedrooms off of the hall, including the owner's suite, with two closets and a newly renovated bath.Lovingly maintained by its original owners, this distinctive home is an oasis in Silver Spring. For environmentally conscious buyers who want a private, natural setting that isn't far off the beaten path, this is a clear winner.
