About This Home

As of September 2022

STUNNING! This is a ‘Must See.’ A truly amazing 4 bedroom/4 bath Expanded Rambler with a whopping approx. 3,000 sf on two levels, all nestled in a quiet neighborhood within the Bethesda-Chevy Chase (BCC) school district. The location couldn’t be better - about 1 mile to the SS Metro, Whole Foods, Rock Creek Park, gym, restaurants, theaters (AFI), The Fillmore, the new Purple Line, and 2-blocks to the Capital Crescent Trail, all in the much sought-after Rosemary Hills neighborhood. This beautiful & unique home features an upper level with 3-bedrooms/3-baths and a lower level with 1-bedroom/1 bath. Enter from the large front porch into a spacious living room with its double chandeliers, high-end wood-burning stove w/reclaimed fireplace mantle (from a Philly mansion), into the exquisite kitchen, and this is truly a ’Chef’s Kitchen,’ with its’ AGA double oven w/exhaust hood, Fisher & Paykel D/W, marble countertops, marble floors, full-sized pantry, breakfast bar, and beautifully crafted custom cabinet paneled integrated appliances. This is a real chef’s country kitchen! Continuing to the formal dining room with an approx. 14’ vaulted ceiling, architectural windows, marble floor, an ornate chandelier, and double-hung glass pained doors leading to a slate patio. The master bedroom is an oasis with its’ ensuite marble master bath, double vanities, dual mirrors, decorative pendant lights, and a large walk-in closet. The lower level features beautiful wood floors, a large bedroom, a full bath w/standup shower, and an entertainment bar with a mini fridge. The LL bedroom is perfect for guests, an au pair, a home office, or an independent teen (LOL). Plenty of space for a family media room (and then some) and perfect for entertaining. In addition, there is a separate laundry room and upgrades include a tankless water heater (Wow!), Jeld-Wen windows throughout, an architectural shingled roof, a unique permeable driveway, and a custom hardscape garden with a stone path surrounding the house. Add to all of this membership to the exclusive private Rock Creek Pool, where membership conveys. This won’t last long. Sellers retain the right to accept or reject any offer. Offers, if any, are due by 5:00 pm Tue 8/30. Pre-offer inspections are encouraged. Open Houses Sat, 8/27 & Sun 8/28 2-4 pm.
