5120 Wessling Ln, Bethesda, MD 20814

Designed by local architect Rui Ponte and built new from the ground up in 2015, 5120 Wessling Lane perfectly blends well proportioned rooms, a modern and open floor plan along with idillic indoor/outdoor living, all with a level of finish rarely seen. Situated within walking distance of downtown Bethesda, this 7,294 square foot home combines suburban amenities with urban convenience. A welcoming front porch ushers you into the home’s wide foyer. The living room to the right upon entry is flanked with custom built-ins and a “hidden” desk, allowing it to be a versatile home office as well. The formal dining room to the left of the foyer has stunning custom wall coverings and is dinner-party ready for 12 or more. A convenient butler’s pantry and walk in pantry are the ideal transition to the state-of-the-art kitchen. The home's main level half bath, with beautiful finishes, and two coat closets are also off of the front foyer.   The chef’s caliber kitchen is the perfect blend of functionality and beauty. Floor to ceiling cabinetry, expansive stone countertops and professional grade stainless appliances will impress the most serious of cooks. A stunning eat-in area with custom built-ins and wide center island make this kitchen the heart of the home. The kitchen itself opens directly to the main level family room, centered by a stacked stone gas fireplace and French doors opening to a large flagstone terrace and hard-lined gas fire pit. An incredible heated screened-in porch with an outdoor kitchen space provides the ultimate in indoor/outdoor entertaining. The porch leads out to the professionally landscaped yard with raised planter boxes and a custom play set. A secondary pantry space and mud room off of the kitchen leads to the convenient tandem two car garage, rounding off the main level. The crown jewel of the second level is the expansive primary retreat flanking the entire rear of the home. The bedroom space is an ideal space, with custom window coverings and built-in displays with lighting. The room opens to the spa-like primary bath with heated floors and towel bars, dual vanity areas, a large glass shower, water closet and separate niche with a free-standing soaking tub. A separate make-up vanity and his and her dressing rooms complete this special space. A second floor family room can double as a home office or ideal homework space. Two additional bedrooms, each with en-suite baths, and a separate laundry room and walk-in linen closet complete this level. The third level consists of two large bedrooms, each with walk in closets and a shared jack and jill full bathroom. Bedroom five also features a private balcony overlooking the rear yard. The expansive lower level has a beautiful recreation room and wet bar as well as half bathroom. A home gym space, a home theater room with built in projector and a full bedroom suite with attached bath complete this ideal Bethesda offering. Welcome home!
