About This Home

As of May 2022

Truly charming brick Colonial with 1-car garage in the prettiest section of Parkwood, ideally located near Rock Creek Park and just minutes to the Kensington historic district and downtown Bethesda. Wonderful curb appeal: meandering front walkway, paved driveway – even the quintessential white picket fence.
The traditional floor plan includes a sun-filled formal living room with floor-to-ceiling windows and large wood burning fireplace with detailed moldings. An adjacent sunroom/porch with three walls of windows serves as a bright, 1st-floor office or sitting room. The all-white kitchen features stainless appliances, granite countertops and charming eat-in space overlooking the backyard. There is a formal separate dining room with chair rail and chandelier as well as a powder room on this level.
Upstairs are three bedrooms and a full bath with tub. All bedrooms have extra deep closets and windows with views. The walk-out lower-level rec/family room has recessed lighting and built-in bookshelves and offers the perfect space for movie nights or a playroom. There is also room for a Peloton or home office. An adjacent utility/laundry room has built-in shelving and plenty of space for storage.
The deep lot is an impressive size for this neighborhood. The fenced backyard with perimeter landscaping includes a large patio and a basketball hoop – great space for play, relaxation or casual entertaining.
Enjoy this special Colonial’s traditional warmth, charm and proximity to shops, restaurants and major commuter routes – a perfect home as is or ideal for an addition. Welcome to 4504 Amherst Lane. Welcome home! Offers if any, due Tuesday 4/19 by 2pm.
