About this home
Starting off as a modest wood-frame house, 4544 Fairfield was transformed in 2005 by an award-winning
residential architect into a sublime space with high ceilings that give the open-plan living room its dramatic
European flair and touches of luxury while retaining the charm of the original cottage. Flooded with natural
sunlight from multiple exposures, the space feels welcoming, bright and airy. The flow of the layout provides an exceptional setting for everyday living and entertaining, while the private backyard offers the perfect perch to unwind and commune with nature.
Upon entering, you are immediately struck by the handsome basalt tile at the entry, leading to the distinctive
Douglas fir flooring - a true show stopper. The living room features floor-to ceiling windows along with a gas
burning fireplace — perfect for cosy gatherings. The kitchen is both striking and functional, with granite
countertops, a breakfast bar for gathering and entertaining, unique under-cabinet windows showcasing the
butterfly side garden, high-end stainless steel appliances - new in 2022 and 2026 - and custom Douglas fir
cabinetry. The dining room allows for a decent-sized crowd and is enhanced by French door access to the yard and deck.
This jewel box of a home with its three bright bedrooms is the perfect alternative to condo living. The primary bedroom on the second level has its own ensuite bath with a shower and tub, along with a generous daylight-infused walk-in closet with two built-in dressers and an extensive closet system. A Juliet balcony overlooks the deck and yard. The laundry can be found on this level, too, plus some attic storage. Two additional bedrooms are located on the main level, along with a hall bath with shower. The home office with its smart and elegant built-ins is also located on this level, overlooking the front yard.
Outside you’ll find an Ipe (Brazilian iron wood) deck and a beautiful garden. There is a shed for your bicycles and extras. Ideally located just moments from the shops, dining, and everyday conveniences of downtown Bethesda, and steps from scenic trails and lush green spaces that run throughout the county and into DC, this home strikes the perfect balance between accessibility and escape. The property includes off-street parking for 3 cars, though you can easily leave the cars at home — there is plenty within walking distance. Harris Teeter is roughly 3 blocks away, NIH/Walter Reed are 2 blocks away, and downtown Bethesda is a 10-minute walk or 5-minute drive. Medical Center/NIH metro is less than half a mile door-to-door and the beltway is a 5-minute drive. Whether you’re downsizing or new to the area and eager to explore, this is a truly exceptional opportunity to own a turnkey 3-bedroom /2-bath single family home in one of the region’s most desirable communities....
