Sumner is one of Bethesda's premier close-in neighborhoods and this fine colonial sits on one of its nicest blocks. The wide, low traffic street lends a pleasing, spacious feeling to the homes in this immediate vicinity. The main level flows from the bright living room through the dining area that is open to the kitchen with its striking, vaulted ceiling breakfast room addition, on into the den, completing the circle to the front door. There is an updated powder room in the den. The breakfast room and the dining room both have sliding glass doors to access the deck which has privacy from the mature trees and plantings that surround the backyard. And there is a door in the dining room which leads to the cozy screened porch. The second level has four bedrooms and two renovated bathrooms, one of which is en-suite with the primary bedroom. There is a pull-down staircase in the hallway to access the attic for additional storage space. The full basement is unfinished except for the linoleum tile floor but half of it is unobstructed, allowing for a very nice future living space. This is also where you find the laundry and utilities, a modest half bath and the one car garage. There is an outside exit to the backyard. Sumner is the neighborhood nearest to DC that is in the Whitman High School cluster, thereby allowing for a very easy commute to downtown DC and a short drive to Bethesda or Friendship Heights. It is only 4 blocks to the Crescent Trail (all downhill!) for jogging or biking into downtown Bethesda or the other direction all the way to Georgetown! The Westbard Square redevelopment project is well under way with a brand new Giant Food, Tatte, Starbucks, several restaurants and shops, and much more to come in the next couple of years. All of this is only about a mile and half away. Good stuff! A home is such a fine location at this modest price point is undeniably a special opportunity. Don't miss it. Offer deadline Tuesday, Feb. 24. 1:00 pm. Thank you.
