Nestled in the heart of Chevy Chase Section 5, this 1923 bungalow blends timeless architectural character with thoughtfully integrated modern updates. The home offers 3 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, plus a convenient quarter bath in the lower level. A 2014 kitchen renovation with a striking red Viking gas stove, and a beautifully refreshed upper-level bathroom in 2019 provide contemporary comfort, while original hardwood floors, a wood-burning fireplace, and classic built-ins preserve the home’s historic charm and craftsmanship. Set on a 5,313 square foot lot, the inviting front porch and expansive rear deck—both rebuilt in 2018—offer ideal spaces for outdoor enjoyment, with the fully fenced backyard and lush garden adding privacy and serenity. Inside, generous storage is available throughout, including a charming pantry/mudroom area off of the kitchen, a complete unfinished lower level, and an attic space with semi-finished walls and painted wood flooring. This home is truly move-in ready, yet offers outstanding potential for the renovation enthusiast. With existing architectural plans and exterior footings already in place, and prior approval for a 2–3 story addition, there is a unique opportunity to expand the home to include a luxurious primary suite and two additional en-suite bedrooms. Just blocks away, the Brookville Road commercial corridor offers a small-town village feel with the convenience of a neighborhood market, deli, pharmacy, the acclaimed La Ferme restaurant, and a beloved weekend farmers market. Topped off with a brand-new roof installed in April 2025, this home offers comfort, character, and room to grow in one of Chevy Chase’s most sought-after neighborhoods.
