About this home
*** Join our Open House on Sunday 7/26, 1:00pm - 3:00pm! *** Whitman Cluster entry pricing just minutes from Bethesda Row! Offering over 5,700 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, this is an extraordinary opportunity to own one of the largest homes at this price point in one of Bethesda's most sought-after neighborhoods. Expanded in 2006, the original cottage was transformed into a truly one-of-a-kind residence where architectural character, flexible living spaces, and everyday comfort come together beautifully.
A dramatic two-story foyer filled with natural light creates an unforgettable first impression. From there, the home unfolds with inviting gathering spaces, quiet work nooks, and effortless flow designed for both entertaining and everyday life. At its heart, the spectacular family room is anchored by a stunning stone fireplace and opens seamlessly to a full entertaining bar—an ideal backdrop for everything from holiday celebrations to casual evenings with friends.
Upstairs, an expansive central landing offers the perfect flex space for reading, homework, gaming, or relaxing. Spacious secondary bedrooms share a thoughtfully designed bath with individual vanity areas, giving everyone their own space to get ready with ease. The private owner's retreat is a destination unto itself, featuring skylights, dual walk-in closets, a spa-inspired bath with a rare Japanese-inspired wet room, and a private balcony—perfect for morning coffee or unwinding with a glass of wine at sunset.
The expansive lower level offers incredible flexibility for every stage of life. With a large recreation room, dedicated fitness area, abundant storage, and a current art studio, the space can easily evolve into a private guest suite, multigenerational living area, executive home office, or creative studio. Already plumbed for a full bath, the possibilities are endless.
Perfectly tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac, yet just a 15-minute walk to Bethesda Row's acclaimed restaurants, boutiques, and entertainment, this home delivers the rare combination of privacy, space, and walkability. Located in the beloved South Bradley Hills neighborhood and just blocks from Whitman High School and Pyle Middle School, opportunities like this rarely come along.
If you've been waiting for an exceptional home with unmatched space, character, and one of the most compelling values in the Whitman Cluster—this is the one....
