    Classic Bethesda character, thoughtful updates, and exceptional versatility come together at 5107 River Hill Road. Offering nearly 4,400 square feet across four finished levels, this five-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath home pairs traditional architecture with warm, welcoming living spaces and a wonderfully functional floor plan. Newly refinished wood floors and fresh interior paint create a crisp, move-in-ready backdrop throughout. A central foyer opens to generous living and dining rooms, and two wood-burning fireplaces anchor the main level—one in the living room and the second in the family room. The spacious kitchen centers on an oversized island with seating and offers stainless steel appliances, gas cooking, a wall oven/microwave combination, abundant cabinetry, and an adjoining wet bar/butler’s pantry. The family room features exposed ceiling beams, a painted-brick fireplace surround, custom built-ins, and expansive windows overlooking the rear yard. A bright, window-lined sunroom works beautifully as a home office, reading room, or additional sitting space, and a stylish powder room completes the level. The first upper level offers three well-proportioned bedrooms and two full baths, including a Jack-and-Jill bath, with dual vanities in both. Above, the entire top floor is devoted to a private primary suite: a spacious bedroom with vaulted ceiling and hardwood floors, a large walk-in closet with built-in storage, and a spa-inspired bath with dual vessel sinks, freestanding soaking tub, glass-enclosed shower, and warm wood accents. The finished lower level adds a large recreation room, fifth bedroom, full bath, and generous laundry room with cabinetry, counter space, utility sink, and second refrigerator. An oversized one-car garage, exterior EV charger, additional storage, a boot bench and drop zone, and driveway parking for two more cars complete the home’s everyday conveniences. Outside, mature landscaping surrounds a series of stone patios, a hot tub, garden bed, and private rear yard—appealing spaces for relaxing and entertaining. Positioned for both recreation and commuting, the home sits minutes from Glen Echo Park, Cabin John Regional Park, and Mohican Swim Club, with easy access to Clara Barton Parkway, MacArthur Boulevard, and Canal Road for a direct route into Georgetown and downtown Washington. Downtown Bethesda is roughly 10–15 minutes away, while nearby Chain Bridge and the American Legion Bridge provide convenient access to McLean, Arlington, and Northern Virginia.
