***Special Open House, Sunday, April 27th, 2:30-4:30pm!*** featuring a classically trained flutist performing live and poolside for a magical home tour experience- Exceptional modern design often walks a fine line between expansive openness and intimate livability. At 6817 Capri Place, this balance is achieved with remarkable precision. A study in light, form, and spatial relationships, the home seamlessly integrates grand, sun-drenched volumes with human-scale moments of warmth and retreat. Nestled within the prestigious Palisades neighborhood of Bethesda, Maryland, this 8,700-square-foot residence sits on a breathtaking 1.5-acre lot. Designed to embrace its natural surroundings, the home boasts six bedrooms, five full baths, and one half-bath, each space thoughtfully positioned to enhance both privacy and connection. The experience begins at the threshold, where an immediate sense of spatial clarity unfolds. Expansive glazing floods the interiors with natural light, framing dynamic views of the rolling landscape. Nowhere is this more pronounced than in the main living area—a soaring double-height space where walls of glass dissolve the boundary between interior and exterior. From here, sightlines extend seamlessly to the kitchen and a lofted mezzanine, a flexible space that functions as a lounge or, as the current owners have envisioned, a refined home office. The rear elevation is a composition of shifting perspectives, continuously reframing the lush grounds and the striking pool. This interplay between built form and landscape is not merely aesthetic—it’s experiential. Each vantage point offers a distinct dialogue between architecture and nature, a testament to the home’s meticulous planning. Perhaps the most iconic element is the staircase, a sculptural focal point that defines both the home’s facade and its interior experience. More than a means of circulation, it acts as a vertical light well, anchoring the residence while providing a rhythmic architectural counterpoint to the surrounding openness. Moving through this space is not simply passage—it is an event, a moment of engagement with the home’s design philosophy. 6817 Capri Place is not just a residence; it is a statement of modernist refinement, where architecture, landscape, and daily living converge in perfect harmony. This is contemporary luxury at its most intentional.
