This expanded colonial resides on a lesser-traveled street in the desirable community of Wood Acres. The original floor plan has been enhanced by a kitchen extension offering ample cabinetry and counterspace, adjoining a bright cathedral ceiling breakfast room with a great view through the Palladian window and an exit to the deck. There is also a flagstone patio and a lovely, level side yard. Another quality brick addition provides an airy family room with a lovely bay window having the same pleasant vista and a powder room. The living room has a traditional wood burning fireplace and flows naturally to the dining room, kitchen and family room to complete the circular flow. Newly refinished hardwood flooring and fresh paint make this level shine! (Note that the kitchen extension borrowed part of the garage which no longer accommodates a vehicle.) Nearly level entry into the house is a subtle everyday benefit.

The second level, which has quality wall-to-wall comfortable carpeting over the original hardwood flooring, offers four bedrooms and 2 moderately updated baths, including the primary bedroom with its en-suite bathroom. This house was built in 1954 towards the end of the neighborhood development which stared in 1941, and originally benefited from three slightly larger bedrooms than the earlier homes. That fact enabled the long-time owners to divide the second largest bedroom into two cute bedrooms with built-in beds, resulting in four total bedrooms upstairs. The customization was done in such a way as to be easily converted back into one large bedroom if so desired.

The lower level of this house has a newly refinished rec room with luxury vinyl flooring and recessed lighting - nice! There is a modest half bath along with the separate laundry room and the utility room. A large closet provides good storage space.

The Sellers have a membership to the Palisades Swim Club where Katie Ledecky got her start! This membership can transfer to the new owner of this fine home with an application and modest membership fee which avoids the waiting list, which is years long.

Wood Acres is well known to be a highly sought after destination for people who value a close-in convenient location. It is a relatively mild commute from here to downtown DC and getting to Northern Virginia is not bad either. The Capital Crescent Trail is popular for hiking and biking and will have you in thriving downtown Bethesda in no time. The area is excited about the redevelopment of Westbard Square which already has a new Giant Food, Tatte, Starbucks, restaurants, shops and more on the way! It is only about a mile away. Also nearby are Glen Echo Park, the C & O Canal, the Potomac River and great biking along MacArthur Blvd. The public school assignments are Wood Acres Elementary (right in the neighborhood!), Pyle Middle and Whitman High School. (Always verify with MCPS.) People love living in Wood Acres and I know you will too!
