A One-Of-A-Kind Modern Residence With Enclosed Garden Courtyard If you’re searching for something beyond the ordinary — a home that sparks imagination, is impressive for entertaining, but functions well for everyday family life or working from home — this Mediterranean influenced residence is the answer. With more than 5,000 square feet of interior living space and a large fenced garden, it offers both scale and soul. From the dramatic two story vaulted entry hall to the expansive owner’s suite and the private courtyard garden, this home creates a special feeling. You can imagine yourself in a boutique hotel or another country. A flexible floor plan and multilevel layout also let you tailor this unusual property for your own lifestyle. Main Level The entry level serves as the primary living floor. At the front of the home, a custom kitchen opens to an adjacent breakfast area and a convenient powder room. A corridor connects the kitchen to a spacious rear family room. A stairway from the breakfast room leads to a large loft, currently used as a family room but easily adapted as an additional bedroom, exercise studio, or home spa. The loft includes its own full bath with rain shower and whirlpool tub. The main level also includes three adjacent bedrooms (one ideal as an office), each with French doors opening to the fenced rear garden. On the opposite side of the main level, a generous dining room sits beside a wet bar and wine closet. The dramatic entrance hall — currently curated as an art gallery — connects the dining room to the front living room. A twosided glassfront fireplace links the living room and entry hall, adding architectural interest. French doors from the living room open to the home’s central courtyard, a stunning focal point that functions as a private interior garden and an inviting “outdoor” entertaining space. A separate guest or grandparent suite with bedroom and full ensuite bath is also located on this level, easily accessed from the entry hall. Second Floor / Owner’s Suite The owner’s suite is reached via the main staircase in the entry hall. At the top, a sitting room with wood burning fireplace overlooks the dramatic two story foyer. A short hall leads to the primary bedroom, which includes a large walk in closet and a balcony overlooking the interior courtyard. At the rear of the suite, a dedicated home office features its own balcony with views of the garden. A secondary staircase connects this office directly to the main level, allowing it to function independently from the bedroom suite if desired. Location Situated in the sought-after BCC school district, the home is less than half a mile from Rock Creek Park with its extensive trails and recreation. Public transportation is close by, including bus stops within a block. A short walk brings you to Metro’s new Connecticut Ave. Station on the Purple Line, opening next year, providing easy access to Bethesda and Washington, DC. Come by for a tour. This distinctive residence provides easy access with a circular drive leading to a twocar garage. A truly must see home.
