tops and breakfast area, large dining room, living room with fireplace and custom
built-ins, first floor bedroom or office and a finished basement with Berber carpeting.
This home offers location, updating and space and is an exceptional value in today's
market.
Would you like to know more about the community of Edgewood? It
is a harmonious collection of approximately 75 traditional style homes, mostly
constructed in the 1930's and 1940'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.
Community life is enhanced by the efforts of the Edgewood/Glenwood Citizens Association.
The community organization is voluntary and serves the residents by planning events
and monitoring the progress of downtown Bethesda, NIH and Suburban Hospital. It
was instrumental in the design and renovation of the children's playground at
nearby Greenwich Park that took place this year. The neighborhood also has 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 its greatest assets is the proximity
to Metro, parks and downtown Bethesda. Bethesda, with its many desirable restaurants
and outdoor activities, is within walking distance 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",
this neighborhood and home offer something for everyone. MAIN LEVEL "
