Welcome to 5125 Baltan Rd, a timeless gem in the sought-after Sumner neighborhood of Bethesda, Maryland.

Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully prepared for market, this home features fresh paint throughout, new lighting, refreshed landscaping, and beautifully restored 1959 hardwood floors that bring back its authentic character. Offering over 3,700 square feet of finished living space across three levels, this residence provides a spacious, comfortable retreat on just under a quarter-acre lot.
Inside, you’ll find five bedrooms, an office/den, four full bathrooms, and a convenient half bath. The formal entry foyer opens into a welcoming layout that includes a formal dining room, family room, and living room with a wood-burning fireplace, all illuminated by oversized windows and a charming bay window. Newly installed recessed lighting enhances the warm and inviting ambiance.
The main-level primary suite is conveniently located just off the kitchen, offering a spacious layout with double exposures, an en-suite bathroom, and a pass-through Jack-and-Jill half bath leading to a stately study. This study features built-in closets and two additional exposures for warm, diffuse natural light. The walk-out lower level includes a second kitchen, an additional bedroom, an expansive rec/family room, and a private entrance, making it ideal for multi-generational living or rental potential. The fully fenced backyard is a private oasis, complete with an oversized stone patio perfect for outdoor gatherings and entertaining.

The home is a quick commute to downtown Washington D.C., Georgetown, and Northern Virginia attractions. The convenient Sangamore Shopping Center provides grocery, dining, and retail options, and bustling downtown Bethesda, with its diverse amenities and Metro access, is just around the corner. buying in Sumner means you’ll also be minutes from Friendship Heights Metro Station, major highways, and main connector roads for easy regional access.
Don’t miss the chance to make this home your own in a well-established, vibrant neighborhood with city amenities close at hand.
