Set in the wonderfully desirable neighborhood of “Glenwood”,
this white-painted brick colonial offers charm and character. The
home features an expanded first floor, including a den, powder room
and two porches. Also featured are refinished wood floors, freshly
painted interior and exterior, fireplace, and a master bedroom with
private bath. It is ideally located on a no-thru street and has
been a family home to the current owners for many decades.
Glenwood is a harmonious collection of 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 an intense pride
in ownership, and where people work together to improve the quality
of life for all. The homes have been well cared for, many have been
expanded/updated and all have weathered the decades gracefully.
In addition to all the wonderful people in the community, one
of our greatest assets is the close proximity to the NIH, 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 and Arts
Festivals, or the Thanksgiving Day “Turkey Trot”, downtown
Bethesda offers many activities for families and adults to enjoy.
This home, with quality updates, charm and location, is an exciting
value in today’s real estate market.
