The Carleton of Chevy Chase is a luxury high-rise condominium in The Village of Friendship Heights in Chevy Chase, MD., at the gateway to the Nation's Capital, near the northwestern border of Washington, D.C. The Carleton is the condo building with the fewest units in the Village at just 140, making it considerably smaller than its neighboring buildings and allowing for a tight-knit community of owners since its construction in 1982. It is also the last of the condominiums built in the neighborhood with door attendant service, separately metered climate control in every home, and an in-unit sprinkler fire suppression system. The boutique building stands distinct with its red brick architecture of 12 floors of residences, the largest balconies in the Village, and 4 floors of underground garage parking directly accessible by the building's 2 elevators. The canopied circular entry driveway leads to an expansive and recently updated lobby, staffed around the clock by a front desk concierge to greet you and your guests. Guest parking in the garage supplements residents' assigned spaces. Entry access everywhere is controlled electronically and monitored centrally. All residents have access to a fitness center with a locker room, shower and sauna facility, card room, and a party room, complete with a full kitchen, that can be reserved in advance for a small fee. Household pets are welcome. The heated swimming pool with sun deck, supervised by a certified lifeguard, is typically open from Memorial Day through Labor Day, sheltered in the green and tree-lined courtyard. Residents conduct community-wide social events throughout the year. The building engineer is available to handle certain small repairs at a nominal cost. The Carleton of Chevy Chase is a brief free shuttle ride or a 5-7 minute walk to the Friendship Heights Metro; then 13 minutes Metro transit to the subway stop for the White House, World Bank, or George Washington University; and 8-mile drive to the Capital Beltway (I-495). The Village offers a free shuttle bus every 20 to 30 minutes on weekdays and weeknights as well as a weekend schedule that picks up in front of the Carleton building and drops off by the covered area of the Metro station as well as Whole Foods, Amazon Market and all of the neighborhood shops and restaurants.
