About This Home

As of April 2025

Nestled in the sought-after and rarely available Byeforde neighborhood of Kensington, this beautifully maintained brick split-level home offers 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms. Freshly painted and full of charm, this home blends classic elegance with modern updates.

The main level boasts a spacious eat-in kitchen featuring granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and ample cabinetry. A formal dining room, highlighted by a contemporary chandelier, opens to a bright and inviting living room with recessed lighting and expansive double paned windows that flood the space with natural light. Stunning refinished hardwood floors extend throughout the living and dining areas, as well as the upper-level bedrooms and hallway.

Upstairs, the generously sized primary suite includes two closets and an en-suite bath. Two additional bedrooms share a full hall bathroom, completing the upper level.

The lower level offers a cozy retreat with brand-new carpeting, a large family room with a wood-burning fireplace, updated lighting, and a custom-built accent bookshelf. This level also features a fourth bedroom, a full bathroom, and a convenient exit on the same level to the side yard.

A second lower level provides even more functional space, including a mudroom, laundry area, workout/office space, and an extended one-car garage.

Outdoor living is just as impressive, with a large screened-in porch off the dining room leading to a beautiful patio—perfect for entertaining. The freshly landscaped yard is adorned with mature trees and plantings, creating a serene setting.

Ideally located minutes from I-495, Rock Creek Trail, Strathmore Arts Center, shopping, dining, and The District, this home offers both convenience and charm. It is also near top public and private schools, Antique Row, boutique shops, and public transportation. Lovingly cared for by the same owners for over 20 years, this home is a true gem in Kensington.
