About This Home
As of July 2025First Open This Sunday CANCELLED. Property is Under Contract. A Classic Colonial Retreat in the Heart of it All!
Tucked along the picturesque, tree-lined streets of one of the area's most desirable neighborhoods (Glen Mar Park), this timeless brick Colonial, adjacent to the coveted Sumner subdivision, offers the perfect blend of classic charm and modern lifestyle. Ideally situated with easy access to downtown Bethesda and Washington D.C., and just a short stroll to the vibrant new Westbard Square—featuring restaurants, parks, and boutique retail—this home delivers on location, convenience, and character. One block from Glen Mar Neighborhood Park with tennis courts, basketball court and kid’s playground. And 1 mile to new Westbard Shopping Center with Giant, Starbucks, Tatte, One-to-One Fitness, liquor store, barber and several restaurants and retail.
Set on an expansive lot with mature landscaping, this 4-bedroom (all on 2nd floor), 2.5 bath residence was expanded for both comfortable everyday living and effortless entertaining. The sun-drenched freshly painted main level welcomes you with an open floor plan anchored by the original wood-burning fireplace and mantle, gleaming hardwood floors, and a seamless flow from the spacious living area to a large kitchen that opens to an expansive deck. A bright sunroom offers serene views of the generous backyard—an ideal spot for your morning coffee or a quiet retreat.
Upstairs, all four bedrooms are thoughtfully placed, including a primary suite with an ensuite bathroom. The remaining bedrooms share a beautifully preserved hall bath that pays homage to the home’s original charm. The basement has several functional rooms one of which can easily be converted to a 5th bedroom (and half bath that could easily be converted as well to full bath) with its own entrance that would be perfect for an au pair or to generate rental income.
Step outside and find yourself in a large, private outdoor oasis (7,368 sf lot). The beautifully landscaped rear terrace, complete with winding pathways and a gazebo with wood decking, sets the stage for summer BBQs, family gatherings, and cozy evenings around the fire.
This is more than just a home—it’s a lifestyle. Peaceful, connected, and full of character.
Property is subject to an estate and is being sold “as-is”. Please see offering instructions.
