Nestled in one of the most coveted and rarely available communities in the Washington, DC area, this beautifully refreshed 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home offers 2,724 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space in the charming Town of Glen Echo. With just 100 homes and a close-knit neighborhood feel truly unlike anything else in the region, Glen Echo is not just a location, it is a lifestyle. Freshly painted throughout, the home welcomes you with light-filled living spaces, hardwood floors, and a gracious flow ideal for everyday living and entertaining. The finished basement adds valuable flexible space, while newly replaced windows flood every level with natural light. A new balcony off the primary suite creates a private retreat overlooking lush, wooded surroundings. The kitchen and bathrooms are original, offering buyers a blank canvas to customize to their own taste and vision. Major updates include windows replaced in 2025, balcony, new carpet, freshly painted interior and exterior, and a roof replaced in March 2020. Steps from the C&O Canal towpath, Cabin John Regional Park, Glen Echo Park, and the Potomac River for kayaking and recreation. A short stroll to the Potomac Farm Market, restaurants, and shops. Convenient to downtown Bethesda, Friendship Heights, NW DC, Clara Barton Parkway, and I-495. Located in the highly regarded Whitman School Cluster. Opportunities to own in Glen Echo rarely come to market. This is one of them. **Square footage per third-party floor plan measurement and may differ from tax record. Buyer is advised to independently verify.
