Property Description
Enjoy beautiful sunset and seasonal Potomac River views from the front deck of this expanded and extensively updated 6-bedroom, 3.5-bath home in the desirable Glen Echo Heights neighborhood of Bethesda, within the highly sought-after Walt Whitman High School cluster. Conveniently located near an access point to the C&O Canal Towpath, this home offers the perfect blend of modern comfort, outdoor recreation, and commuter convenience. Thoughtfully renovated and expanded, this home spans three finished levels with flexible living spaces designed for today's lifestyle. Recent improvements include the addition of two bedrooms, a spacious family room, an expanded kitchen with new cabinetry, a climate-controlled two-car garage, and front and rear decks ideal for entertaining or relaxing. The entry level features a welcoming foyer, a large family/recreation room, a guest bedroom, a flexible home office (or sixth bedroom), a full bath, an updated laundry room, and interior access to the attached garage. The main level showcases an open floor plan with two living areas, a dining space, an expanded kitchen, the primary suite with a walk-in closet and en-suite bath, an additional bedroom with deck access, and a powder room. The upper level offers two additional bedrooms with oversized floor-to-ceiling windows and a full bath. Major capital improvements include a roof (approximately 2.5 years old), new siding, gutters, 200-amp electrical service, a premium Rinnai tankless water heater with hot water recirculation system (less than one year old), wireless-controlled mini-split HVAC throughout the home and garage, backyard drainage system, app-controlled front-yard irrigation, an updated laundry room, automated garage doors, wireless smoke detectors, a security camera system, professionally landscaped grounds, custom primary closet organization, and European-style heated towel warmers in two bathrooms. Ideally located with easy access to I-495, Washington, DC, and Northern Virginia, this home is just minutes from Sangamore Shopping Center, the future Westbard Square development, Glen Echo Park, Cabin John Park, the C&O Canal Towpath, hiking and biking trails, kayaking, shopping, dining, Sibley Memorial Hospital, and the Mohican Swim Club.
