The expansive living space features vaulted ceilings, a loft area, and skylights that enhance the open, airy feel. The suite includes a full kitchen and abundant storage, making it perfect for an in-law or au pair suite, family room or home office. <br> <br> Ideally located, this Chevy Chase DC gem offers a perfect blend of elegance, comfort, and practicality, with ample space for everyone and a large unfinished basement with a second washer/dryer and additional storage. <br> <br> A driveway offers off street parking and farther back a one car garage with a side door leading to the garden. <br> <br> A short walking distance to shops, restaurants, cinema and transportation options.
