Built in 2021, this better-than-new, barely-lived in home features 6 bedrooms, 5.5 bathrooms, a third level au pair/guest suite and bonus room, two laundry rooms, and a lower level apartment in a four-story, modern farmhouse design. Impressive curb appeal and a welcoming front porch introduce this outstanding property. Greeted by the main-level library/office with French doors, the foyer opens to the dramatic open-concept living area. The kitchen—which showcases a large, centered waterfall island with a breakfast bar, Fulgor Milano appliances including double wall ovens, ample counter space and cabinetry—adjoins the dining area, which is outlined by nearly floor-to-ceiling windows and French door access to the rear porch and backyard. The dining area flows seamlessly into the light-filled living room with its modern, stone-encased fireplace. Upstairs, the second floor finds 4 bedrooms with walk-in closets and three bathrooms, highlighted by the owner’s suite with its dual walk-in closets and en-suite bath with a double vanity, glass shower, stand-alone tub, and private commode area. This level also includes a convenient laundry room. The fifth bedroom with a bathroom and an open bonus room is found on the next upper level. Access to the lower level is off the foyer or via a private, exterior side entrance. The in-law/guest suite is comprised of a bedroom, bathroom with dressing area, walk-in closet, separate laundry, living room, kitchen recreation room and entertainment area. A separate recreation room is also found here. A 2-car garage with a pebble tech floor and an electric car charger, custom window treatments—most with smart Lutron switches—10-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, energy-saving LED lighting throughout and a fenced rear yard complete this outstanding home. Perfectly located, NIH, Walter Reed, downtown Bethesda and Ayrlawn Park are just steps away. With easy access to major transportation routes, commuting to downtown Washington, DC, northern Virginia and area airports is a breeze.
