Welcome to 7017 Richard Drive, an extraordinary new custom residence by ERB Properties, perfectly positioned in Bethesda’s prestigious Burning Tree Valley. Offering over 6,000 square feet across three finished levels, this architecturally refined home blends modern sophistication with timeless design, delivering the scale, craftsmanship, and lifestyle expected in the Walt Whitman High School district. The main level is defined by soaring ceilings, expansive windows, and an effortless open flow designed for both everyday living and elevated entertaining. A chef’s kitchen anchors the space, showcasing an oversized island, professional-grade appliances, generous pantry, and sun-filled breakfast area that opens seamlessly to the inviting family room. Elegant formal living and dining spaces add a sense of classic luxury while maintaining a warm and functional layout. Upstairs, the private primary suite serves as a true retreat with dual walk-in closets and a spa-inspired bath designed with refined finishes and thoughtful detail. Three additional bedrooms with ensuite or adjacent baths and a well-designed laundry room complete the upper level. The fully finished lower level enhances the home’s versatility with a spacious recreation room, a dedicated fitness studio with mirrored wall and rubber flooring, a guest bedroom, and a full bath—ideal for wellness, entertaining, or extended stays. Outdoor living is equally impressive, featuring a covered upper deck and lower patio overlooking the fenced and professionally landscaped yard, creating a peaceful and private setting. A two-car garage completes this exceptional offering. Zoned for Burning Tree Elementary, Thomas W. Pyle Middle School, and Walt Whitman High School (buyer to verify). A rare opportunity to own a newly built luxury residence in one of Bethesda’s most established and sought-after neighborhoods.
