On the market for the first time in nearly 60 years, this classic Chevy Chase Colonial presents a rare opportunity to write your next chapter in one of Washington, D.C.'s most beloved neighborhoods. Cared for by the same family for generations, the home offers five bedrooms, two full baths, and two powder rooms-including one conveniently located on the main level. The property's expansive, deep rear yard provides endless possibilities for outdoor enjoyment, gardening, or future expansion. With four full levels of living space, the home includes three bedrooms on the second floor and two additional bedrooms on the top floor-offering flexibility for family, guests, or home offices. While ready for immediate occupancy with some cosmetic updates, the house also holds tremendous potential for larger-scale improvements. Additional highlights include: hardwood floors throughout, a main-level den with bay window and built-in shelving, a spacious living room with fireplace, foyer, deck overlooking the rear yard, recreation room with walkout access to the backyard, ensuite bath arrangements, including a dual, shared bath for two bedrooms, HVAC (2016), water heater (2015), and a new roof was installed just 12 years ago (approx. 2013/14). Nestled on a quiet block between Broad Branch Road and Nevada Avenue, the home is just a short stroll to Lafayette Elementary, its playground and park, and the beloved Broad Branch Market. Chevy Chase is celebrated for its leafy blocks, abundant green spaces, and direct access to Rock Creek Park-making it one of Northwest D.C.'s most sought-after enclaves. Here, you're also minutes from the lively Connecticut Avenue corridor with its restaurants, specialty shops, and bookstore, as well as Metro's Red Line and multiple bus routes, offering quick access to downtown D.C. Schools include Jackson-Reed High, Deal Junior, and Lafayette Elementary. This is an Estate. Interior pictures available 9/16.
