Property Description
Nestled in the charming Town of Glen Echo, this delightful bungalow blends the timeless character of a 1903 Chautauqua Cottage with thoughtful modern updates. Inside, a light-filled floor plan features high ceilings, wood floors, a wood-burning fireplace, and a wall of windows offering a winter view of the river. The dining room opens to a deck and flagstone patio, creating an easy indoor-outdoor flow. The table-space kitchen includes white cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a convenient pantry. A more recent addition expands the home with a spacious family room featuring vaulted ceilings and abundant natural light. The main level also includes a laundry area and a private primary suite with vaulted ceilings and an ensuite bath with marble-top vanity and tile shower. Upstairs are two generously sized bedrooms with ample closet space and a full bath. The lower level offers a bright finished studio with a new vanity sink-ideal for an art studio, office, or potential guest suite-as well as an unfinished area for additional storage. Outside, the fully fenced yard includes off-street parking, a Level 2 EV charger, extensive hardscaping, stone retaining walls, a flagstone patio, and a sunny upper deck-perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Glen Echo offers a vibrant, close-knit community with holiday parties and pot-lucks at the Town Hall, a community garden, Little Free Library, and easy access to nearby trails. Ideally located near Glen Echo Park, the C&O Canal, and Cabin John Creek, with convenient access to Bethesda, DC, VA, I-495, and I-270. Zoned for highly regarded schools including Bannockburn Elementary, Thomas W. Pyle Middle, and Walt Whitman High School. Freshly painted and updated with a newer metal roof, windows, Hardie Plank siding, and two-zone HVAC, this move-in ready home offers the perfect blend of charm, comfort, and community.
