RARE Penthouse Offering at The Lauren – Bethesda’s Crown Jewel of Luxury Living
Welcome to an extraordinarily special opportunity to own one of the most coveted penthouse residences at The Lauren, Bethesda’s premier full-service building known for its elegance, exclusivity, and unmatched attention to detail.
Perched above it all, Penthouse 703 spans approximately 3,350 square feet of impeccably designed interior space, with sweeping views of downtown Bethesda and an extraordinary private rooftop terrace - a feature found in only a select few homes in the building. Direct private elevator access ushers you into a world of refinement, where 9'6" ceilings, wide-plank dark oak floors, and floor-to-ceiling windows bathe the home in natural light.
Designed for both grand entertaining and comfortable living, the home features a stunning gourmet kitchen outfitted with marble countertops, full-height marble backsplash, and an elite appliance suite from Wolf, Sub-Zero, and Bosch. The open-concept layout flows seamlessly to multiple outdoor spaces, including a rare private rooftop terrace with built-in summer kitchen- ideal for al fresco entertaining under the stars.
The expansive primary suite is a true retreat, featuring two custom walk-in closets and a spa-inspired marble bath with dual vanities, an oversized rain shower with bench, and private water closet. Two additional bedrooms - one with custom built-ins- are generously sized and filled with natural light, while a flexible den serves beautifully as a home office, library, or lounge. Every full bath is finished in floor-to-ceiling marble and exudes the tranquility of a luxury hotel.
Additional features include a large vented gas fireplace, fully integrated Lutron lighting, motorized shades, a separate laundry room with built-ins, and abundant gallery-style wall space ideal for showcasing art. The residence conveys with two reserved garage parking spaces and private storage.
At The Lauren, residents enjoy the highest caliber of service, including 24-hour white-glove concierge, valet, on-site management and engineering staff, a state-of-the-art fitness center, and access to the residents-only Onyx Lounge featuring private wine lockers. The building’s rooftop terrace, complete with catering kitchen and panoramic views, is the ultimate gathering place.
Set in the heart of downtown Bethesda, with celebrated dining, boutiques, and cultural amenities just outside your door, Penthouse 703 at The Lauren is more than a home - it is a lifestyle beyond compare.
