This colonial sits on a 6,608 square foot lot backing to NIH in the quiet
community of Glenwood. It is located on a no-thru street and is walking distance
to Greenwich Park, Metro and downtown Bethesda. Would you like to know more about
the Glenwood/Edgewood community? It is a harmonious collection of 225 traditional
style homes, mostly constructed in the 1930's and 1940's. Every original Glenwood/Edgewood
home is either a colonial or cape cod constructed of brick, plaster walls and
oak hardwood floors with the care and pride of an era gone by. The rolling terrain
and magnificent trees provide a setting equal to any in Bethesda. But the community
is more than just brick and mortar. This is a community where people really do
know their neighbors, where there is a pride in ownership and where people work
together to improve the quality of life for all. Many homes have been expanded
or updated and have weathered the decades gracefully. Community life is
enhanced by the efforts of the Glenwood/Edgewood Citizens Association. The community
organization is voluntary and serves the residents by monitoring the progress
of downtown Bethesda, NIH 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 campus and the creation of an "common"
area on the campus for neighbors to walk their dogs, children to play and adults
to enjoy. 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. In addition to all the wonderful people in the community, one
of our 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.
Whether it's Imagination Bethesda, Taste of Bethesda, Bethesda Literary Festival
or the Thanksgiving Day "Turkey Trot", Bethesda and the Glenwood community
offers something for everyone. MAIN LEVEL "
