Property Description
Beautifully updated brick colonial in the highly desirable neighborhood of Springfield. The main level highlight is the open kitchen/great-room that flows naturally to the luscious screened porch! The generous living room has a fireplace and a picture window to enjoy the view of the professionally landscaped, blooming rear garden. The main level floor plan is completed by the foyer, the dining room, an office and the powder room. There are four bedrooms on the upper level along with two full baths, both nicely updated. One bath is en-suite with the primary bedroom which has ample closet space. Mature trees and plantings provide pleasing leafy views from most of the windows. The lower level offers a well-finished recreation room with a second fireplace, the fifth bedroom and a full bath, along with the utility/storage room. There is an exit stairway from this level to the backyard. People love this neighborhood for its convenient proximity to so many benefits. Those include the Capital Crescent Trail which affords hiking and biking into downtown Bethesda or all the way into Georgetown. Shopping at the newly developing Westbard Square is only a mile or so away and when the entire redevelopment is done, this will be a value enhancing feature for this home and the entire neighborhood. Glen Echo Park is a short drive from here, as is the Potomac River and the C&O Canal. The public school is Walt Whitman High School, Pyle Middle School and the highly regarded Wood Acres Elementary School, just steps away. This wonderful home represents the opportunity to enjoy life in one of Bethesda's finest communities and one of the best investments of your life. Just ask the neighbors and they'll tell you!
