About This Home
As of April 2025A sprawling estate home ready for your decor updates, this stately, custom-built Cape Cod is one of those rare finds – a classic home designed to stand the test of time while providing the perfect ‘blank slate’ exciting to today’s homebuyers. Some homes are simply where you live. Others are where you celebrate life, create memories, and leave a lasting legacy. Set on over half an acre of beautifully landscaped grounds, this estate was carefully curated as a sanctuary, not just for its owners, but for the birds and wildlife that grace its gardens. Mature trees, sculpted boxwoods, and flagstone patios that follow the natural curves of the land create a setting that is both private and poetic.
At the heart of this home is an expansive main-floor owner’s wing – a true rarity in Bethesda on this scale. More than just a bedroom, this private suite is an oasis, complete with a large en suite bath, dual vanities, soaking tub, walk-in closet, and an adjacent study/library. Whether seeking a quiet place to reflect, work, or unwind, this wing offers the flexibility and comfort that high-end buyers desire – without sacrificing connection to the rest of the home.
With 6,700+ square feet sprawling across three levels, this home’s design is both elegant and effortlessly livable. Expansive gathering spaces allow for hosting on any scale, from formal dining to fireside conversation in the grand living room with a bay window and ornate fireplace. The center-island kitchen, adjoining family room with fireplace, and sunroom span the back of the home. The slate-floor sunroom features walls of windows and skylights that flood the space with natural light and invite the beauty of the outdoors. From there, the access to the breezeway and garage make coming and going a breeze.
The upper level offers five generous bedrooms and two baths, a huge unfinished attic space, and additional storage. The large lower level provides an additional bedroom, full bath, and recreation spaces – ideal for multigenerational living, hosting guests, or creating a private retreat for a caregiver or au pair.
This is a home that embraces its surroundings. The previous owner, an avid birder, designed the gardens and green spaces as a haven for both feathered and human visitors alike. From morning coffee on the flagstone patio to evenings spent watching the sun set behind the trees, every element of this estate was crafted to offer peace, beauty, and a connection to nature – all just moments from the heart of Bethesda.
For those seeking a truly special home – one that offers timeless design, unparalleled comfort, and a setting unlike any other – this is an opportunity not to be missed.
