5425 Wickford Dr, Rockville, MD 20852

Nestled in a small enclave of custom homes, on a lush and beautiful corner lot fringed with a new vinyl clad picket fence, and bright yellow forsythia, this all brick colonial is a standout with modern distinction. Once inside the white picket fence, garden beds and slate walks meander about to the front porch, side garage and rear patio. The covered front porch and balcony have lovely iron appointments, and the slate roof above will protect and perform for years to come. Pristine and tasteful, a stunning interior has been thoughtfully upgraded and modernized with designer selects at every turn. Recent improvements in 2024 include refinished satin hardwood floors, upscale plantation shutters all around, fresh paint, new carpet and new designer lighting. Four fireplaces, recently cleaned, enhance the study, formal dining room, family room, and upper level bedroom. Designed for indoor and outdoor living, dining and entertaining; upgraded French doors along the back of the house invite outdoor access to the expansive slate patio, streaming light into the sun room, family room, and eat-in gourmet kitchen. A commanding center island with a gas cook station, cookbook shelves and breakfast bar are surrounded by a perimeter shaker wood cabinetry, stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, breakfast room, and a spacious walk-in pantry. Adjacent to the kitchen is a powder bath, and main level laundry outfitted with cabinetry, sink, and beverage cooler. A winding central staircase with plush carpet runner rises to the upper level where a separate wing offers privacy for a gracious primary suite where plantation shutters pair nicely with raised panel wood wainscotting. Two separate walk-in dressing closets are outfitted with wardrobe organizers, and a grand primary suite bath invites spa-like luxury with designer finishes. The upper level is completed with plantation shutters all around, three additional bedrooms, a hall bath, and an en-suite bath. Downstairs, a fully finished lower level with low maintenance porcelain herringbone patterned floors, fireplace, library shelving and a wall of storage closets add to the lifestyle amenities that encircle the second family room, game area, and recreation room. Completing the lower level is a full bath and fifth bedroom with a covered side entrance that could be a private au-pair or inlaw suite. This fully upgraded, beautifully modernized home offers amenities, fine finishes, and of course, a very prime location just a stone's throw away from the Metro, Strathmore Concert Hall, Georgetown Prep and shopping galore. Do not miss this rare opportunity to live, work and play in the sought after Wickford community in North Bethesda.
