This sun-filled cape cod home is located in the convenient neighborhood of
Glenbrook Knolls. It has been gently lived-in and lovingly maintained by its long-time
owner. Some of the many features of the home include a first floor den or bedroom,
two and one half bathrooms, table space kitchen, large screened porch, finished
basement, and a one car garage. The backyard offers privacy and there are numerous
mature plantings throughout the property. All of these amenities plus a very desirable
location add up to an exceptional value in today's hot real estate market. Glenbrook
Knolls is a community of traditional style homes built by quality craftsman with
the care and attention to detail of an era gone by. It is a close knit community
where residents know one another and help those in need. Community life is enhanced
by the efforts of the Glenwood/Edgewood Citizens Association. The citizens association
is voluntary and serves the residents of three communities (including Glenbrook
Knolls) by monitoring the progress of downtown Bethesda, NIH, Beth-El synagogue,
and Suburban Hospital. It has been instrumental in the development of a walking
path onto NIH campus (which is used to walk to Metro), the planting of many trees
on the NIH campus, and the creation of an "common" area on the campus
for neighbors to walk their dogs, children to play and adults to enjoy. Additionally,
the community organizes a 4th of July celebration and Halloween party each year,
both featuring a parade by the children and a great get together for the adults.
There is a real sense of "community" here in Glenbrook Knolls. In
addition to all the wonderful people in the community, one of Glenbrook Knoll's
greatest assets is the proximity to Metro, numerous parks, and downtown Bethesda.
Bethesda, with its many desirable restaurants and outdoor activities, is only
a short walk and remains the destination of choice for adults and families. So
whether it's Imagination Bethesda, Taste of Bethesda, Bethesda Literary Festival
or the Thanksgiving Day "Turkey Trot", the town of Bethesda and the
community of Glenbrook Knolls offers something for everyone. MAIN
