Overview

Nestled in the forest of The National Park Pinehurst Tributary, this stunning home is on the market for only the second time since 1956. It has been thoughtfully renovated by its current owners, including an addition by Hamilton Snowber Architects and Mauck Zantzinger Builders, which showcases breathtaking forest views and eastern light. Interior design by Zoe Feldman, featured in Architectural Digest, creates inviting spaces that are both intimate and welcoming. Landscaping and hardscaping by Fritz & Gignoux has transformed the gardens into a seasonal paradise, featuring a storybook front garden and a flat rear lawn surrounded by blooming garden beds and native trees. In the adjacent park, a tranquil tributary flows through a canopy of majestic tulip poplars and oaks, with hiking paths along the peaceful stream. A winding stone path leads to the entrance of the brick colonial home, accentuated by large, imported English stone planters and crowned with climbing pink roses. Flowering dogwoods and vibrant azaleas create a stunning spring display. The screened-in porch offers breathtaking views and delightful birdsong, perfect for morning coffee. Natural light fills the home, and the property is complemented by low-voltage illumination at night. Four fireplaces enhance its charm, with the living room fireplace inviting cozy gatherings and seamless flow to the porch through French doors. The kitchen features a striking 12-foot island, a dining table accommodating eight, and stairs leading to the backyard. A unique saltwater fish tank and a wall of windows highlights the family room, while additional amenities include a Butler?s pantry, walk-in coat closet and a dry bar with engraved copper wall tiles. The elegant dining room features a telescoping mahogany table that accommodates twelve (most furniture is for sale), complemented by a magnificent chandelier and rich silk drapes. The main-floor bedroom suite, currently an office, overlooks lush gardens and is ideal for guests. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms share a hall bathroom. There is ample storage and an attic fan providing natural cooling. The private primary suite features custom closets, built-in bookshelves, a romantic fireplace, and a luxurious spa-like bath with radiant heat flooring. The renovated English basement includes an Au Pair/MIL suite, a spacious art studio with backyard access, and a recreation room with a wood-burning fireplace. There is a newly renovated table tennis room with French doors, and a laundry room and utility space. The backyard boasts a private stone terrace with an Italianate fountain?perfect for entertaining. Additional features include a whole-property irrigation system, path lighting, a wooden shed for refuse/recycling, and an Invisible Fence for dogs. Located in Barnaby Woods, Chevy Chase, DC, this tranquil sanctuary is just a short drive from Bethesda and downtown Washington, offering easy access to world-class dining and services.
