Nestled in the charming Town of Glen Echo, this expanded Victorian-inspired Cape offers a unique blend of character, space, and convenience. Originally built in 1905, thoughtfully expanded in 1980, and extensively renovated inside and out, this 5 bedroom, 4 bath home sits on a 5,224 sq. ft. lot bordering National Park Service land and overlooking the C & O Canal. A complete exterior renovation, completed in 2022, enhanced the home’s timeless appeal with the addition of a welcoming covered front porch with a painted sunburst pattern above, expansive wraparound deck, Hardie-plank siding, architectural shingle roof, skylights, triple-pane windows and a shed. Elegant architectural details include a gracious living room with fireplace, walk-in bay window, and 9-foot ceilings, along with a distinctive octagonal dining room at the center of the home.

The upper-level primary suite offers a walk-in closet and dual-sink bath, while four additional bedrooms provide flexible options for guest rooms, offices, or hobbies. Original crown moldings, window trim, and maple floors have been beautifully preserved, blending historic charm with modern comfort. A private walk-out lower level provides approximately 1,400 sq. ft. of flexible living space with its own exterior entrance and lockable separation from the main residence. Ideal for guests, a home office, studio, or multigenerational living, the space includes living and sleeping areas, a galley kitchen, walk in bay window dining nook, ample storage, and canal views. A separate mudroom and utility area with sink offer additional potential for a wine cellar, workshop, or hobby space. . Enjoy seasonal river views, natural surroundings, and a truly special neighborhood setting with easy access to Glen Echo Park, the C&O Canal, shops, trails and convenient commuter routes to Bethesda, Washington DC, and Northern Virginia. Neighbors gather at the Town Hall for holidays, picnics, and community events, creating a warm and welcoming small-town atmosphere. Bannockburn, Pyle and Whitman school cluster.
