About This Home
As of May 2026Backing to the Rock Creek Park nature preserve known as Little Forest Park in Chevy Chase, DC, this home features all that Chevy Chase buyers seek: Classic Colonial details and modern updates blend seamlessly, to create a comfortable, easy lifestyle. Meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated, it is move‐in ready, available in June 2026 at the end of the school year. This is the type of Colonial red brick home Chevy Chase is famous for, sited on a flat, 8,000+ sq. ft. corner lot with mature trees, an expansive butterfly and native species garden, accentuated by a giant fragrant evergreen magnolia tree sheltering a child’s swing, all surrounded by a picturesque white picket fence. Main Level:
A slate walk, matching the slate side patio, leads to a traditional center-hall entry; inside, sun‐filled interiors drenched in harmonious quiet color, rich hardwood floors and intelligent lighting choices infuse the home with warmth and sophistication. The stunning classic wood‐burning fireplace is the centerpiece of the spacious, comfortable living room. An adjoining sunroom offers the ideal setting for a home office or sunny play area. The white and grey kitchen with warm wood accents and an island features stone countertops, stainless‐steel appliances, and a gas range, and is open to the dining area. Adjacent to the outdoor deck and slate patio, the kitchen and dining area form an easy indoor / outdoor setting for entertaining. A French door leads outside to the deck, patio and private, expansive yard. Additional features on the main level include a discreet powder room and an attached one‐car garage.
Upper Levels:
A serene primary bedroom retreat with en suite bath is separated by the stair landing from two additional bedrooms and a full hall bath with soaking tub. Two third level rooms currently serve as an office and a guest bedroom. All bedrooms are well-appointed, light and have hardwood floors.
Lower Level:
The bright finished playroom on the lower level extends the home’s generous living space, and there is plenty of room to easily convert the 1/2 bath to a full. Further finished expansion may be achieved by converting an extensive laundry and storage area on the lower level. Located on a picturesque, quiet, tree‐lined street, this property offers the best of tranquil Chevy Chase living, yet it is connected to the favorite neighborhood spots: miles of Rock Creek Park hiking trails, the Lafayette Elementary Farmers Market and the Broad Branch Market are all in proximity, with Connecticut Avenue shopping, dining, library and community center close by, at the heart of the Chevy Chase community.
In bounds for Lafayette Elementary, Deal Middle, Jackson‐Reed High School, Blessed Sacrament and St. John's College HS and within easy reach of major commuter routes: Military Road, Rock Creek Parkway, Connecticut Avenue and 16th Street.
