First time ever on the market - This stunning Colonial Village home is being sold by the original owners! Built in 1988 by Robert Schattner, his craftsmanship and attention to detail are still apparent throughout this luxurious residence. Soaring ceilings and light pouring in from all angles make this elegant home feel simultaneously welcoming and stately. The layout is perfect for entertaining, with a wide center hall, exceptionally large dining room, and beautiful back patio. The thoughtfully laid out kitchen flows to the living room, providing a warm and homey atmosphere. A laundry room on the main floor (with a chute from upstairs) provides convenience and extra storage space. Upstairs, the bedrooms are generously proportioned and the bathrooms have all been updated. The primary suite spans the entire back of the home, plus contains two walk-in closets and a full bath with separate tub and shower and a double-sink vanity. The finished basement is only half below grade, and features a huge rec room, fifth bedroom with full bath (perfect for an au pair). But thats not all there is a wet bar, large bonus room, and two huge closets. To top it all off, theres an oversized two-car garage with another secure utility/storage space. The grounds have been professionally landscaped for several years, giving this special home fantastic curb appeal. The location is icing on the cake: whether you want a peaceful walk in Rock Creek Park or a quick jaunt downtown or to Maryland, its all right outside your door!
