Property Description
The lower level expands the living space with a versatile family room, full bathroom, and laundry area—ideal for guests, a home office, or additional living flexibility. Don't miss the separate entrance off the driveway side of the home which expands your opportunity to host the basement as an in-law suite, au pair suite, or an income producing lower level. Set on a rare lot and a half, the property offers a larger-than-typical yard for the neighborhood—fully fenced and surrounded by mature trees and perennial plantings. Whether entertaining on the patio or enjoying quiet outdoor space, this setting is a true standout. A detached garage and additional off-street parking complete the package.
Tucked away in the highly sought-after Maplewood / Alta Vista neighborhood, this home offers unmatched convenience — just moments to NIH, Walter Reed, Suburban Hospital, YMCA, and local parks. Commuting is easy with nearby bus access, two Red Line Metro stations within 3 miles, and quick connections to downtown Bethesda, Wildwood Shopping Center, and I-495.
This is a rare opportunity to enjoy the warmth and craftsmanship of a historic home, paired with the space, location, and updates that today's lifestyle demands.
