Overview
Discover the quintessential charm of this historic stone residence, nestled in the coveted Town of Somerset. Originally built in 1935, this home underwent a significant renovation in 2018 by the esteemed Zantzinger, seamlessly blending timeless character with contemporary living standards. The house retains its original allure while now offering enhanced flow, functionality, and comfort.
Upon entry, you are welcomed into a vaulted living room adorned with a wood-burning fireplace and Urban Electric pendant lights, creating an inviting and warm atmosphere. Adjacent to the living room, a den features custom floating bookshelves and ceiling paneling, ideal for a cozy reading nook, office, or small TV room. The kitchen serves as the heart of the home, seamlessly connecting the dining and living areas to the beautifully designed rear patio through elegant double doors with side lights.
The first floor boasts a spacious family room with a gas fireplace and windows on three sides, offering ample natural light. An adjoining pantry, with its limestone tile floors, built-in shelves, and laundry facilities, includes a full bathroom complete with a tiled shower and a basalt sink.
On the second floor, find two charming bedrooms and a bathroom, alongside a luxurious primary suite featuring a ceiling fan, art lighting, two closets, and a bath adorned with marble and stone tiles. The top floor presents a delightful bedroom with treetop views of the backyard, built-in bookshelves, and a cozy bench seat.
The mature front garden is graced with a heritage crepe myrtle, three varieties of hydrangeas, and a dogwood, while the rear garden features a rose garden and a serene, fenced-in stone patio adorned with perennials, a flowering cherry tree, and a row of American hornbeams. A garage is conveniently accessible via the rear drive.
Recent updates since 2018 include a dual-zone HVAC system, a new roof, new windows, renovated bathrooms, a new pantry, an expanded coat closet, an enlarged third-floor room, and a new rear stone patio. Outside, enjoy proximity to Somerset Elementary School, the beloved Somerset Pool, tennis courts, Capello Park, as well as the Friendship Heights metro, Bethesda, and the Capital Crescent Trail.
