Would you like to know more about the community of Edgewood? It is a harmonious collection of approximately 75 traditional style homes, constructed in the 1930’s, 1940’s and 1950’s. Every original Edgewood home is either a colonial or cape cod with brick construction, plaster walls, oak hardwood floors, slate roofing and with the care and pride of an era gone by. The 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 are meticulously cared for, many have been expanded and updated and all have weathered the decades gracefully.
