Perfectly located on a tree-lined street in Chevy Chase West, this beautifully maintained home blends timeless character with the functionality and flexibility of a more modern floor plan, boasting a newly renovated carriage house and access to Norwood Park at the end of the block. Thoughtfully expanded and updated over the years, it offers the spaces and flow that support modern living while retaining the warmth, craftsmanship, and charm that make older homes so special. Filled with natural light and designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the property is further distinguished by a fully renovated detached carriage house, an exceptional and rarely available feature that provides remarkable flexibility for guests, a private home office, an au pair suite, or multigenerational living.
A welcoming entry hall sets the tone for the home, opening to bright, inviting living spaces. The spacious living room offers flexibility for both formal entertaining and comfortable everyday living, with a wood-burning fireplace creating a cozy spot to gather on cooler evenings. At the heart of the main level, the dining room connects the living room, kitchen, family room, and office. The kitchen is thoughtfully designed for everyday functionality and opens to a sunny breakfast area with a large pantry, while the adjoining family room addition provides easy access to the rear deck and backyard beyond. Tucked quietly to the side of the home, the office and powder room offer privacy and flexibility for working from home.
Upstairs, the primary suite is a peaceful retreat complete with a library sitting room, walk-in closet, and spacious primary bath. If needed, the sitting room can easily be sectioned off into an additional upstairs bedroom with minimal updates! Two additional bedrooms with large closets, a full hall bath, a generous linen closet, and a conveniently located second-floor laundry room complete the upper level. Hardwood floors and fresh paint throughout the main and second levels add warmth and continuity throughout the home.
The lower level adds another layer of flexibility, featuring a bedroom, full bath, and comfortable sitting area. The lower level addition is dug out with high ceilings and tile floors, creating an exceptional bonus space, ideal for a recreation room, fitness area, playroom, or whatever best suits your needs.
A truly special feature of the property is the detached two-level carriage house, recently transformed through a comprehensive renovation by Four Brothers Construction. The result is an exceptional space featuring a welcoming living area, office space, kitchenette, and full bathroom on the main level, along with a private, sunny bedroom upstairs. Integrated heating and cooling systems on both levels provide year-round comfort. Whether used as a guest house, private office, creative studio, or space for extended family, the carriage house offers remarkable flexibility while feeling seamlessly connected to the main property.
Outside, the rear deck opens to a flat, grassy backyard that serves as a natural extension of the home's living space. Mature landscaping creates a private and inviting setting with ample room for outdoor entertaining, gardening, recreation, or quiet afternoons at home. A gravel parking area with an EV charging station provides valuable off-street parking.
Just a stone's throw from Downtown Bethesda, the Bethesda Metro, and Friendship Heights Metro, this home offers easy access and walkability to restaurants, shopping, grocery stores, and everyday conveniences. Down the street is Norwood Park, with walking paths connecting to the Capital Crescent Trail and Bethesda Pool. Combining exceptional walkability with convenient access to regional transportation, this location offers the very best of Chevy Chase living.
