So much house behind the charming, timeless and understated exterior. 3 fully finished levels with 5 bedrooms and amazing kitchen/family room/lower level addition. 1930s original construction mixed with an expanded footprint for today's living. Large, flat and private backyard, this property offers an excellent opportunity in a prime Bethesda location. Past the entry foyer vestibule is a spacious living room with fabulous built-ins and a large formal dining room. The heart of the home is the family room open to the huge kitchen. Cathedral ceilings, walls of windows, and fireplace enhance the family room, and then there is a breakfast area that transitions to the open chef's kitchen with prep and cabinet space adequate for extensive entertaining. Walkout to wraparound deck overlooking the yard is also available from the kitchen. A bedroom and full bath complete the main level. Upstairs are 3 additional bedrooms and full bath. And the lower level has a large recreation room, full bath and a 5th bedroom. Plus walkout to lower level covered patio and rear yard. Off street parking for multiple cars, mature landscaping, a walkable location plus the coveted Westbrook Elementary. HVAC, windows and doors replaced in recent years. Live in as is or make further cosmetic tweaks to the backyard and some interior spaces.
