• Remarks Public: Charming Cape Cod in Bethesda's Deerfield. Easy to show! This elegant custom Cape Cod sits at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in one of Bethesda’s most desirable neighborhoods. Overlooking the scenic Cabin John Trail, the property offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and thoughtful design. Surrounded by azalea-filled gardens in the front and peaceful wooded views in the back, the home invites outdoor living—from morning coffee on the screened porch to gatherings on the deck, all accompanied by birdsong and the rustle of leaves. Smart and beautiful renovations in 2018, the home blends classic charm with modern updates. With approximately 4,600 square feet (per floor plan), it provides surprisingly generous space in a serene, storybook setting. A Home Worthy of its Setting The main level welcomes you with a gracious foyer. Straight ahead, a large picture window in the formal living room showcases an endless private wooded view. Designed for both comfort and function, the main level includes a formal dining room with French doors opening onto an expansive treehouse-level deck. Mirrored pocket doors seamlessly connect the dining room to a renovated kitchen featuring custom cabinetry, a soapstone island, Carrera marble countertops, a picture window over the farmhouse sink, and French doors leading out to the screened porch. The porch, finished with reclaimed weathered oak barnwood siding – intentionally selected in homage to the street name – provides a peaceful retreat among the trees and flows into the deck. On the opposite side of the kitchen, a side door steps out to a charming herb garden. A cozy family room with wide plank oak floors features wooden beams, a wall of built-in bookshelves, and a fireplace set at a diagonal with a brick hearth. A main-level primary suite offers convenience and privacy at the other end of the home, away from living spaces, while a powder room and coat closet complete this level. A curved staircase takes you from the foyer to the upper level. This floor features three generously sized bedrooms, two full baths, and thoughtfully enhanced spaces. The ensuite bedroom includes a well-sized closet and its own bath, while the two additional bedrooms share a spacious bath. A large cedar closet provides convenient storage. A standout feature is the 12.5' x 5' library nook—a smart design by the owner—that elevates the hallway into an inviting gallery with recessed lighting and built-in shelves, perfect for displaying books, art, or collections. Northern exposure brings sunlight into a versatile room at the end of the hallway. This space, which was originally an attic that the owners transformed into a finished living space, has endless possibilities as a light-filled studio, game room, office, or even an upstairs primary suite. The lower level adds even more space and functionality to the home. A downstairs guest room, complete with an ensuite full bath, offers privacy and direct access to its own deck with a retractable awning matching those that span the main deck, and overlooking a Zen forest garden. A spacious recreation room opens onto the patio and backyard. Underneath the stairs to the main deck is a custom-built chicken coop, installed in 2020. This level also includes a laundry room with built-in shelving, and a second walk-in cedar closet that can readily be converted to a sauna or half-bath. The owner cleverly set off extra space in the two-car garage with a sliding door, creating an unfinished workshop/studio. Don't miss the spacious storage room with a third cedar closet and shelving units that convey. Situated just outside the Beltway, Deerfield is conveniently located to multiple shopping and recreation centers, and enjoys access by foot through the neighborhood to two elementary schools. Spacious living areas, thoughtful details, and a pristine connection to nature, all just 30 minutes to downtown DC,
