Storybook Stone (three sides!) Colonial, with easy access to everywhere! In 'Tudors, Tall Trees and An Echo of Old England Near Downtown Bethesda', The Washington Post writes, "When you turn onto Woodhaven Boulevard, the heart of the Woodhaven neighborhood in Bethesda, you’re immediately transported to an idyllic country town in England. Well-tended gardens surround gorgeous Tudor houses that line the street in a quiet display of stone and timber. The scene is like something you might encounter in a fairy tale. Towering oak, maple and beech trees shade streets named after American poets — Poe, Thoreau, Alcott — adding to the charm....developer Philip Dein began building Woodhaven in 1936 with the intent of re-creating a classic English village. Dein was so attached to his vision that he lived in the neighborhood in different Tudors...." Appreciate the garden from the screened-in porch, stroll the charming neighborhood, contemplate nature from the window-ensconced office and enjoy old world charm in the 'urban country'! Conveys with AHS Complete Warranty, As Is condition, pre-inspections welcome.
