Located in the heart of desirable Greenwich Forest, just about one mile from Downtown Bethesda, this expanded Colonial offers charm, space, and flexibility with a beautifully landscaped, private backyard. Thoughtfully updated and featuring a spacious addition, the home provides a versatile layout across three finished levels. The main level features a bright living room with a gas fireplace, built-in shelving, and a large bay window, filling the space with natural light. A generous formal dining room is perfect for large gatherings, while a family room/den offers a quiet and intimate space for reading or winding down. The private home office off the living room, complete with new luxury vinyl plank flooring, is great for remote work. The updated kitchen is exceptionally spacious, offering ample counter space, abundant storage, and a breakfast room with direct access to the backyard. A side entrance off the driveway provides additional convenience. One of the highlights of the main level is the sun-filled sunroom, overlooking the fully fenced backyard, which includes lush landscaping, a koi pond, and a storage shed. A powder room completes this level. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a large walk-in closet with built-ins and an updated en-suite bath featuring a double vanity, jacuzzi tub, and separate shower. A guest bedroom with its own updated en-suite bath, plus two additional bedrooms and a hall bathroom, provide ample space for owners and guests. The finished lower level includes a recreation/flex room, an additional bedroom with egress and a private entrance, a full bath, laundry area, and storage room. A private driveway can accommodate two cars, a peaceful setting on a tree-lined street, and an unbeatable location close to Greenwich Forest Park, NIH, and the vibrant dining and retail of downtown Bethesda. Not to be missed.
