What's special
Like living in an Enchanted Forest... Nestled among mature trees in the historic and highly sought-after Forest Glen Park neighborhood, this storybook brick colonial feels like a private woodland retreat just moments from city life. Surrounded by lush landscaping and vibrant greenery, it’s a haven for anyone with a green thumb, a penchant for bird watching or a deep appreciation for peace, privacy, and natural beauty. Inside, you'll find a perfect blend of 1940s charm and modern updates across three finished levels. The main and upper floors boast rich hardwood flooring, while a wood-burning fireplace adds timeless warmth to the inviting living room. The thoughtfully renovated eat-in kitchen features wainscoting, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and sleek industrial-style fixtures—all drenched in sunlight from multiple exposures. With 3 bedrooms and 2.5 beautifully updated baths, there’s room for everyone. Enjoy the comfort of heated floors in all bathrooms and the laundry room—a small luxury you’ll appreciate every day. Outdoors, the fully fenced yard offers multiple destinations: a gravel driveway for off-street parking, a charming shed with electricity for all your gardening or DIY dreams, and meandering paths through curated native landscaping. All of this is less than a mile to Forest Glen Metro and just minutes to Rock Creek Park, Kensington, Chevy Chase, downtown Bethesda, and Silver Spring. Whether you’re sipping coffee under the canopy or heading into D.C. with ease, this home offers the perfect balance of tranquility and connection. Driveway parking for 2 cars and additional 3-4 spaces across the street. Come experience the magic—this one is truly special.
