Situated on a private cul-de-sac, this large, brick-front Colonial offers traditional charm, a beautiful backyard, a first-floor family room and an attached, one-car garage – with lovely curb appeal as a bonus.

Built in 1979, this 4 bedroom, 3½ bath beauty features a center hall with living room and family room on opposite sides. The family room opens to an updated kitchen with stainless appliances and granite countertops. An adjacent dining room with sliding glass door leads to an expansive deck overlooking a pretty, landscaped backyard, fenced for privacy. The dining and family rooms share a dual-sided fireplace with floor-to-ceiling brick surround. There are beautiful hardwoods throughout the first level.

Upstairs are four bedrooms and two full baths, including an owner’s suite with private bath. There is a 3rd full bath, along with a rec room and laundry room on the finished lower level. A “bonus” room on this level offers versatile space for an office, exercise room or playroom. Both the second and lower levels are newly carpeted.

Oversized windows on the first and second levels fill the home with natural light. There is abundant storage space throughout. Near downtown Kensington, Chevy Chase and Silver Spring, this special home is just moments to 495, University Boulevard, and the Connecticut and Georgia Avenue corridors, offering easy access to shops, restaurants and transportation.
