8610 Lancaster Dr, Bethesda, MD 20814

Perfect opportunity to own in East Bethesda’s Glenbrook Village neighborhood. The location is extraordinary with NIH’s red line station just blocks away, BCC High School within half a mile, and downtown Bethesda at your fingertips. Lynbrook Park is also close, boasting tennis courts, basketball courts, a playground, soccer and baseball fields, day care, and an unofficial dog park. Now, onto the house! You approach this home through the enticing covered porch, surrounded by gardens and thoughtful landscaping. Built in 2012, this well-maintained home features a bright and cheerful color scheme, a nod to the current owners’ time spent in tropical locales. Hardwood floors and high ceilings are found throughout the first floor. The eat-in kitchen with traditional white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances and a breakfast bar opens to a bright and sunny family room with a gas fireplace and floor-to-celiing windows. It overlooks a fenced-in stone patio with mature plantings. A convenient powder room is accessed off the entry hallway. The living room (which currently serves as a home office) has two exposures, as does the dining room. A side door off of the kitchen brings you to more yard space, an off-street parking pad and a good-sized walk-in shed. Upstairs you’ll find a primary bedroom with a full bath (separate jacuzzi tub and shower) and a walk-in closet. There are two other bedrooms and a laundry room, along with a hall bath. The lower level rec room is vast! The flooring has all been recently replaced and it looks fantastic. There’s a 4th bedroom suite, including a full bath. A utility room, along with an extra refrigerator, rounds out the lower level. Updates include a newer tankless on-demand water heater, 2-year old kitchen appliances, some new fencing, recent paint on the exterior trim and shed, new shades in many of the rooms, and a new wooden counter top for the breakfast bar. This cheerful home is just waiting for someone to love it as much as the current owners have.
