About This Property

A modern Victorian beauty on a quiet tree lined street in one of Chevy Chase's most sought after neighborhoods.  As one of the original historic homes in the Town of Somerset, this distinctive residence has been lovingly renovated and thoughtfully expanded with extraordinary contemporary flair.   Built in 1905, this stately home features exquisite finishes, high ceilings, walls of windows, four fireplaces, custom built-ins and a sensational kitchen and family room.  

A welcoming wrap around porch greets you as you enter this stunning home.  Inside, you'll find an inviting foyer with fireplace, formal living room with fireplace and a delightful arched nook, and an elegant dining room  with bucolic views.  The custom gourmet kitchen is a showstopper! A chef's dream,  it boasts abundant cabinets,  a large island, quartz counters, a Miele appliance suite, and wine refrigerator.  The kitchen flows seamlessly to the open family room with a gas fireplace and a breakfast room with floor to ceiling windows.  The family room and dining room open onto the spacious deck and backyard creating the perfect blend of indoor and outdoor living.   Imagine hosting small gatherings or large parties in this exceptional setting.  The main level is complete with two coat closets and a powder room.

On the second level, there are four bedrooms (two en-suites) and three  full baths.  The luxurious primary bedroom suite boasts vaulted ceilings, a renovated farmhouse style bath with herringbone tile and a double vanity, two walk-in closets and a private balcony.  The versatile upper level offers the perfect retreat with a fifth bedroom or bonus room, office with built-ins, play area, and full bath with nook for lounging.  The lower level features a playroom, laundry room, powder room, and plenty of additional storage space.

The landscaped private fenced yard features fairytale gardens and great entertaining or play space.  Enjoy the views and the feeling of serenity as you relax on the expansive deck.  

The home's superb location is close to all the amenities the Town of Somerset has to offer - a community swimming pool, Dolphins swim team, tennis courts, a batting cage, and basketball hoops.  The Fourth of July picnic and parade, parties and dinners at the pool, and trick or treating on Halloween are popular Town traditions.  In close proximity are the shops and restaurants of Friendship Heights and Bethesda, Metro, Norwood Park, and the jogging and biking trails of the Capital Crescent Trail.  This home is truly a treasure.
