Description
Welcome to this renovated mid-century contemporary in highly sought-after Bannockburn with 4 bedrooms and 3 updated bathrooms. This dramatic home has been extensively renovated, blending light-filled interior spaces and dramatic modern design with the natural exterior landscape. This sun-drenched residence offers a dual sided fireplace, 4 skylights, generous room sizes, and tasteful architectural details throughout. Enter into a welcoming two-story foyer with decorative display nooks and an open closet. 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. The thoughtfully designed chef’s kitchen is highlighted by gorgeous wood cabinetry with mini glass subway tile backsplash and solid surface counters, a Bosch stainless steel appliances suite, a breakfast bar, pendant lighting, a five-burner gas cook-top with a stainless-steel exhaust hood, excellent prep space, and both a walk-in pantry and separate pull-out pantry cabinet. Off the kitchen is a cozy family room with wood tile flooring, tongue and groove ceiling, and a perfect office nook. There are two bedrooms and two full bathrooms on the main level, including the primary bedroom suite with a large walk-in closet, recessed and overhead lighting, and a private renovated full bathroom with a marble vanity, a glass enclosed shower with a recessed nook, colorful glass tile accents, a towel warmer and porcelain tile walls. The main level is complete with a laundry room and a coat closet. Upstairs are two bright bedrooms with tree-top views and an updated dual entry bathroom. The beautiful grounds provide a serene and private setting with a fenced backyard, stone accents and beautiful flagstone patio, mature and colorful plantings (hydrangeas, a fig tree, and red flowering climbing vines), and a shed. The enchanting, screened porch has a gabled roof with a ceiling fan and is the perfect spot for entertaining or relaxing! Fabulous location - This house sits on what's called "the hook" of E Halbert, a quiet cul de sac that is the venue for communal basketball games and street block parties including an annual Halloween potluck. The Bannockburn Swim Club and Clubhouse just down the street is the jewel of the community, which houses a nursery school, community events and a lovely playground. Great location – close to Glen Echo Park, the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Towpath, and Downtown Bethesda. Easy access to River Road, Massachusetts Avenue, Clara Barton Parkway, the GW Parkway, Chain Bridge, I-495, and just minutes to DC.
