Welcome to this stunning home in the Town of Somerset in Chevy Chase, Maryland! Renovated top-to-bottom and expanded by renowned DC architect Carmel Greer, the house features contemporary, Scandinavian-inspired stylish design while also meeting the demands of everyday living. The property (featured in Home & Design in 2015) is flooded with natural light thanks to its many windows and custom glass doors. The home was entirely re-configured with a generous open-concept layout and clean lines, and provides a warm modern ambiance. An extensive contemporary addition at the back of the home overlooking the flat backyard features a sleek white German Bulthaup kitchen with Bosch appliances. An adjoining sunken, elegant great room with ten-foot ceilings comprises a sitting area with a wood-burning stove by Danish manufacturer Morsø and a generous dining space. The luxurious ownerâs suite on the top level features a large bedroom, ample cabinet storage, and a nursery-size walk-in closet. Highlights include a spa-inspired marble bathroom with Duravit double vanities, a walk-in shower, and a luxurious soaking tub in front of a lovely covered Brazilian hardwood Ipe balcony: a precious retreat from the stresses of everyday life. Three additional bedrooms and two modern full bathrooms round up the upper levels. A convenient two-car garage, and a spacious finished basement with kitchenette, laundry, full bath, family room, den, and a storage room complete this fabulous high-quality home. The Town of Somerset is one of the most coveted neighborhoods in the DC area, situated between Chevy Chase and Bethesda. It provides community amenities, including an outdoor swimming pool, community tennis courts, and a Town Hall. The home is ideally located, only a block away from the pool, and 0.8 miles from the Friendship Heights red line Metro station, shops and restaurants, and with close access to the Capital Crescent Trail.
