A MUST SEE - the photos can’t compare to experiencing this home in person! Modeled on turn of the century architecture, this exquisite custom residence is filled with historical authenticity while providing the modern conveniences and amenities sought by today’s buyers (including an ELEVATOR which serves all 4 levels!). Built with an attention to detail that is rarely seen, nothing was spared in the creation of this property, and the cost of building it today would far exceed the current asking price. With nearly 7K sf of space and set on a lush, lovely lot of over ⅓ acre, the home features a fabulous flow and setting that is ideal for entertaining and everyday living. 10’+ ceilings on the main level and 9.5’+ on the second showcase the attributes found throughout, including a spectacular open staircase to all levels, a wrap-around porch and a turret, hand-crafted millwork, reclaimed heart of pine floors and reclaimed mantels for the 4 fireplaces, plaster moldings, a Frank Lloyd Wright inspired stained glass skylight, a barrel vaulted ceiling, curved walls, pocket doors, bespoke hardware, period fixtures and more. The stunning foyer opens to formal living and dining rooms and looks through to the back of the house which is home to the everyday living spaces including the kitchen, breakfast and family room, all designed to be partitioned as needed by pocket doors, and providing views and access to the outdoors. A gorgeous library with pocket doors is located at the second level landing; a generous primary suite, with a turreted sitting area, walk-in closet with dressing area and spa-like bath, along with two additional bedrooms with a double Jack and Jill bathroom and a laundry are also on this floor. The third level includes two more bedrooms and a bath, a sitting area and expansive storage, along with the skylight installed above the staircase. A recreation room, sixth bedroom and full bath, a fabulous wine cellar located in the circular space beneath the turret, access to the oversized two-car garage, a mudroom, additional storage and utilities are on the lower level. Additional perks include a generator, solar panels, tankless hot water heater, copper gutters and more. The lovely front porch wraps around the front turret of the home and provides vistas over the neighborhood, and the rear deck and screened porch overlook the beautiful backyard which is filled with specimen trees and plantings. Within the sought after Walt Whitman School district, Glen Echo Heights is loved for its mature, tree-lined streets and friendly, welcoming community. Neighbors enjoy proximity to the C&O Canal towpath and Capital Crescent Trail, as well as Glen Echo Park and the nearby Safeway, shops and restaurants at Sumner Place. The newly redeveloped Westbard Center and Whole Foods are also close by, and all that Bethesda has to offer is within minutes. Access to Downtown DC and points in Maryland, Virginia and beyond are easily reached, including all area airports. So close to everything, this location is the perfect choice for those who desire a mature, established neighborhood with all of the conveniences of the city right at hand. This is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity - be sure not to miss your chance!
