Welcome to 5138 Wissioming Road -- the picture-perfect retreat you've been waiting for in the heart of Glen Echo Heights. Beautifully situated on more than a quarter acre of lush, private grounds, this exceptional 5,925 sqft Craftsman home was built in 1996. The expansive main level features a grand entry and center hallway, leading into a spacious family room with cathedral ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, and large windows. During winter months, enjoy the panoramic view across the Potomac, complete with spectacular sunsets and river views. The family room opens to a gourmet stainless/granite kitchen, with a skylit eating area, that connects to the large formal dining room with seating for 12 or more! A formal living room with a gas fireplace, a sizeable office/music room, and a powder room complete the first floor. Upstairs are four bedrooms and three full baths, plus a laundry room. The primary bedroom has its own large sitting room, walk in closet, and bath with separate tub and water closet. Another bedroom includes an ensuite bath, and the two remaining bedrooms are joined by a shared bath with double sinks. In addition to the fabulous recreation room with gas fireplace, the lower level includes two generous bedrooms and a separate full bath, a storage room, a utility room with built-in shelving, and a bonus room perfect for a home gym. The lower level opens to a deck overlooking the verdant backyard that stretches all the way to Wyoming Road. This extraordinary home in the Whitman School District sits in the heart of one of the most coveted neighborhoods in Bethesda. Welcome home!
