This lovely and bright American Foursquare sits on one of the most coveted blocks in Chevy Chase, DC. Lovingly maintained by the current owners of almost 40 years, this home spans approximately 4,000 square feet on an 8,450 square foot flat lot. From the welcoming front porch, step into an elegant center hall flanked by generous dining and living rooms. The living room centers around a wood burning fireplace and features built-in bookshelves. Beyond the living room is a large, south-facing family room with a wall of windows overlooking the tranquil and expansive back lawn and garden. French doors from the family room lead out to a deck, perfect for relaxing with family and friends. The cheerful kitchen has southern and eastern exposures, as well as an additional door to the back deck for easy entertaining and grilling, or access to the 2-car garage. Upstairs on the second floor, find 4 well-proportioned bedrooms, each with 2 exposures and generous closets, and 2 full bathrooms. On the third floor, a large owner's suite awaits with dramatic vaulted ceilings, skylights, exposed beams, a full bath, and sitting area. The finished lower level provides an additional guest bedroom or rec room, full bath, laundry room, and ample storage. Distinguished homes with large lots and mature trees define this quiet and impressive block, just steps to cafes, restaurants, shops, and grocers-- truly the best of both worlds-- and just a short walk to Lafayette Elementary or Friendship Heights metro. This home is sure to delight!
