This grand Chevy Chase dream home just celebrated her centennial birthday! The magnificent house & grounds with unique architecture have high ceilings and amazing 4-season views from every room. Commonly called Casablanca, it sits majestically on a hill and 2 lots, well-back and above the road, providing privacy and a long private driveway for easy doorstep access, and wide, renovated alleyways for easy exiting. Only 6 blocks from both Friendship Heights and Chevy Chase villages, shops, parks, community centers, dining and red line Metro. And 6 minutes from the 1,750-acre wildlife park, golf course, stables and planetarium of Rock Creek Park. Arrive by either formal front steps or easy doorstep private driveway. The Moroccan-style, hand-painted breezeway opens to the foyer with ample coat storage and the main staircase. The living room with fireplace and views of beautiful trees flows effortlessly into the generous dining room and powder room. The renovated white kitchen boasts a commercial range, stainless steel appliances and neutral granite counters. The back staircase that also exits down to the back fenced yard, leads up from the kitchen to three generously-sized bedrooms & closets, plus a sun-filled bonus room off the 3rd bedroom; it's a perfect spot for yoga, an office, or meditation. This level has one and a half more baths. Fixed stairs from the 2nd floor hall lead to the recently renovated master suite (nicknamed the penthouse for it s height and sunrise/sunset views). This master suite has a large second full bath (with private water closet), a walk-in closet, and the original, 100-year old hand-crafted, arched picture window, centering the "crown" of the house. The lower level is currently unfinished, with an original ancient oak wall, providing ample storage and a decorative divider, or it could be finished to suit your needs. The fenced rear yard is a perfect place to enjoy summer BBQs or kick a soccer ball. The long private driveway holds 3 cars, and has an added doorstep parking pad that can hold 2 or 3 more cars. Among many things, the roof and central AC are new, and the strong stucco exterior was recently revived by local restoration artisans.
