9603 Montgomery Dr, Bethesda, MD 20814

Nestled amidst towering trees along a verdant street in the heart of Bethesda’s highly sought-after Alta Vista neighborhood, 9603 Montgomery Avenue is the quintessentially charming Cape Cod. A deep front lawn is accentuated by tidy landscaping and a brick paver walkway creating a dignified approach. Comprehensively and thoughtfully updated, the interior is highlighted by freshly painted interiors, richly refinished dark-stained hardwood flooring, and sleek recessed lighting. Wide cased openings and abundant natural light create an open concept main level with effortless flow for both entertaining and casual living. Adjacent to the entryway is the formal living room, accented by a roaring fireplace with stone mosaic surround and a large picture window overlooking the lush front lawn. An ethereal sunroom is tucked away off the living room, ideal as a private office, studio, or reading nook. Centrally located, the formal dining room is framed with wainscoting and features a set of French doors to the rear deck, blurring the lines between indoor and outdoor living to introduce an element of al fresco dining. Thoroughly modernized, the kitchen’s crisp white cabinetry, subway tile backsplash, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliance package create a functional space to appease the culinary enthusiast. Two main level bedrooms, each with two exposures to natural light, share a large, luxurious hall bath. A cozy sitting area at the top of the stairs is lined with built-ins and introduces the upper level. The primary bedroom is generously proportioned and features ample storage via two closets with extensive built-ins. Two additional bedrooms, and a spacious marble hall bath with walk-in glass shower are down the hall. The lower level is anchored by a large, walk-up recreation room. A laundry room, full bath, ample storage, and access to the attached, two-car tandem garage, an enviable amenity in this coveted location, complete the space. Beyond the large rear deck is the home’s highlight: an expansive, fenced, level rear lawn, shaded by soaring trees and fully private. Across the street from the Rochambeau French International School, the home is proximate to NIH, the YMCA, top public and private schools, and less than three miles to Downtown Bethesda’s urban core.
