Outstanding mid-century residence nestled on a quiet tree-lined street in the Town of Somerset. There are spacious rooms flooded with light, comfortable living areas and superb outdoor spaces. A delightful covered front porch and welcoming foyer greet you as you enter this gracious home. The sun-drenched living room with fireplace opens to the formal dining room with French doors. The inviting chef's kitchen boasts handsome maple cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and a breakfast area. Enjoy the charming screened porch with its beautiful views . The second level features two generously sized bedrooms, each with original cabinetry and dual closets. The stunning dual entry bath was thoughtfully renovated with a pocket door from the owner's bedroom and a glass shower with bench. Upstairs, there are two more oversized bedrooms and a luxurious bath. In addition, there are fixed stairs to an attic with wood floors and great expansion potential. The lower levels feature a large recreation room with fireplace, a marvelous 1950's wet bar, a bonus room that could be used as an office, guest or game room, powder room, renovated laundry and mudroom, and a two car garage. The lushly landscaped private fenced yard is perfect for entertaining, relaxation or play. The. home's superb location is close to all the amenities the Town of Somerset has to offer - a community swimming pool, tennis courts, a batting cage and basketball court. 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 is truly a treasure!
