Colonial

Turnkey perfection on a gorgeous corner lot in Westmoreland Hills - fabulous curb appeal and with a white picket fence, too! Originally built in 1955 and later expanded, the home has been further updated and improved by the current owner, with an attention to detail that is often overlooked - down to the replacement of electrical receptacles, light switches, heating and cooling vents and more. The front door opens to gleaming hardwood floors throughout and a welcoming foyer with open stairway to the second level. The living room with fireplace (currently wood burning but with a gas line in place), dining room and family room are all window filled and with views of the back patio and garden, and the living and family room each give access to the level walkout patio and yard outside. A sparkling kitchen with recently refinished cabinetry, granite countertops and stainless appliances provides amazing storage and workspace and the powder room has just been fully renovated. Three large bedrooms (converted from what would have been four with the addition), including a primary with renovated ensuite bath and dual closets plus an additional updated hall bath are on the second level. A recreation room with fireplace, laundry area, storage room, utility room with quarter bath and access to the one-car garage are in the lower level. Directly across the street is the entrance to Little Falls and Capital Crescent trails and access to beloved Westmoreland Park, with its playgrounds, fields, tennis courts and more. Hop on the trail to make your way to Bethesda and all it offers, or take a stroll to the shops and offerings of Spring Valley, including Millie’s, Compass Coffee, and Wagshal’s, among others. Whole Foods is also nearby, across from the newly rebuilt Westbard Square with its many shops and amenities. Friendship Heights is close as well, providing access to additional shopping, dining and Metro. Downtown DC and points in Maryland, Virginia and beyond are easily reached, including all area airports. Westmoreland Hills is known for its close knit community, and the voluntary Westmoreland Citizen’s Association is extremely active and hosts approximately a dozen events annually. So close to everything, this location is the perfect choice for those who desire a mature, established neighborhood with all of the conveniences of the city right at hand.
