About This Home
As of June 2023A must-see home just blocks to Downtown Bethesda! Gracing a .26 acre corner lot in the idyllic Greenwich Forest neighborhood, this stately home has a rare blend of charm, sophistication and function! The front facade features beautiful stone accents and a wrap-porch with an arched entryway. Built in 2007, the home includes more than 5,900 square feet of living space on four finished levels. First floor highlights include a welcoming entry foyer; gourmet kitchen with quartz counters, stainless appliances (including two dishwashers and two sinks), island with seating, and a large breakfast area; formal living and dining rooms, both with custom built-ins; private home office with pocket doors and fireplace; and a cozy family room with another fireplace. The second level has a private owners' suite, which includes a sitting room with custom built-ins, gas fireplace, large bathroom and walk-in closet with custom closet system. Three additional bedrooms are found on the second level, each with an en-suite bath. Upstairs on the loft level there’s a light-filled family room with large casement windows overlooking the neighborhood … a gorgeous view! Another bedroom and full bath are also found on this level. Lower level offerings include a recreation room with screen and projection equipment, an ideal place to enjoy gaming or a movie. A sixth bedroom and full bath are also located on the lower level. Park your car in the spacious two-car garage (wired to support electric car charging). Mature trees and shrubbery surround the home.
