The bright living room has a fireplace, a picture window, recessed lighting, a storage closet, and opens to the delightful screened-in porch with fantastic backyard views. The light-filled dining room has a dual sided brick fireplace, modern lighting fixture, and opens to the kitchen and the living room.

  • Rob B.
    "Bethesda is a great neighborhood. Unfortunately the small business owners are being pushed out by the the larger corp. that have bought up so much real estate. Rents are very high and commercial rent is as well. Sadly it is slowly losing its neighborhood charm and it will soon look like every other cookie cutter block with all the same large corporation businesses. There is a homeless shelter that’s not well advertised on Cordell ave & Wisconsin Ave so you will see people begging for money on the regular. Great access to I459, the Metro and DC if that’s seen as a plus for you. "

  • Michael
    "Excellent commute. Walkable living makes things accessible in the neighborhood from stores to restaurants "

  • Sinhavikas
    "Bethesda row has everything, metro stop, grocery stores, shopping and restaurants. You do not need to have car in this neighborhood if you don’t want to."
