This distinctive home, designed by renowned local architect Hugh Meriwether in the 1940s, is inspired by the classic Charleston Single House style. Blending timeless architectural charm with thoughtful modern updates, this unique property begins with a welcoming screened side porch bordered by ferns. Inside, the main level offers hardwood flooring, a generous living room, and a versatile office that also serves as a guest bedroom, along with a half bath. The open-concept kitchen flows into a vaulted family room featuring built-in bookcases, a cozy fireplace, and French doors that open to a private courtyard. The second level hosts the spacious primary bedroom, 2 additional bedrooms, and a full bath. Downstairs, a partially finished lower level includes a newly renovated full bath, utility room, storage, and an unfinished bonus space complete with a Murphy bed and fireplace. Step outside to enjoy the fenced yard, professionally landscaped courtyard, and a detached two-car garage—equipped with solar panels for added energy efficiency. Located just minutes from the UK, Chevy Chase dining and shopping, and highly rated schools.
