There's a reason this house is hard to leave. Mornings start on the covered front porch of this 1949 painted-brick Colonial, set on a quiet, tree-lined street in close-in Bethesda. The home's best feature is the main-level primary suite: a true retreat with skylights, ductless heating and cooling, and a spa-style bath with a glass-enclosed subway-tile shower, so you can live comfortably on one floor. Sunlight fills the rooms and the hardwood floors glow. The living room is built around a working fireplace and opens straight out to the deck. The dining room still has its arched built-in china cabinet, a detail you won't find in newer homes, and it flows into a bright white kitchen with granite counters, stainless appliances and a breakfast bar where everyone ends up gathering. Upstairs, three more bedrooms with hardwood floors share a full hall bath. The finished lower level adds a big recreation room, laundry and a storage room lined with built-in shelving. Out back, the deck looks over a deep, fully fenced yard shaded by mature trees. The big-ticket items are done: roof (2022), heat pump (2023) and water heater (2021). Downtown Bethesda's restaurants, shops and Metro are about 1.5 miles away, NIH is about 1.4 miles and Walter Reed National Military Medical Center is about 2 miles, so the commute is short and evenings are yours.
