About this home
Tucked away behind the nationally renowned Congressional Country Club, its namesake Country Club Drive is one of Bethesda’s most prestigious streets, with just 26 estate homes set along sweeping, picturesque curves. Set far back from the street on a verdant two-acre lot, this quintessential custom-built residence was originally constructed for its discerning owner.
Approached by an elegant circular driveway, the white brick and siding façade, capped by a synthetic slate roof, evokes classic New England colonial architecture and an enduring sense of quiet luxury. A portico entry and mahogany front door framed by transom windows open to a gracious foyer with a grand staircase.
Formal living and dining rooms flank the reception hall in a traditional center hall layout. Each is generously scaled for entertaining and features one of the home’s six fireplaces. The dining room includes built-in china displays, while the living room flows into a richly paneled library with its own fireplace, connecting seamlessly to the family room. Bathed in natural light from double French doors, the family room features a coffered ceiling and stone fireplace, adding warmth and intimacy.
At the heart of the home is a chef’s kitchen, reimagined by Jack Rosen Custom Kitchens to blend beauty and function. White shaker cabinetry contrasts with dark hardwood floors, while a honed Carrara marble island pairs elegantly with leathered granite perimeter counters. A custom stainless-steel hood anchors the space, complemented by a full suite of Wolf and SubZero appliances. The butler’s pantry features glass-front cabinetry and a wine fridge, linking to the dining room. A sunlit breakfast room with cathedral ceiling and an adjoining keeping room bring the outdoors in. A mudroom and full bath complete the main level.
The upper level features a private primary suite wing with a covered terrace, sitting room, and breakfast bar tucked behind French doors. The spa-like bath includes a soaking tub, and the dressing room offers extensive custom built-ins. Four additional bedrooms and three baths complete this level, while a top-level loft provides flexible space.
The lower level is designed for entertaining, with a recreation room featuring a wet bar and screening area, along with a fireplace-adorned office, fitness center, bedroom, and full bath.
Resort-style grounds include a screened porch opening to a flagstone patio with fire pit and grilling station, a heated pool with automatic cover, and a two-level guest house. Expansive lawns, mature trees, and curated landscaping create a private retreat.
Proximate to top-rated public and private schools, lush parks, and scenic byways the residence offers an unmatched combination of elegance, comfort, and livability in a setting that feels worlds away yet is moments from the heart of Bethesda. Impeccably designed, meticulously updated, and beautifully sited, 8509 Country Club Drive represents one of Bethesda’s finest offerings in an extraordinary home exemplifying timeless luxury....
