Welcome to 7812 Custer Road, a picture-perfect Colonial in one of Bethesda’s most quintessential neighborhoods—just steps to Downtown Bethesda, Metro, and part of the sought-after Whitman, Pyle, and Bradley Hills school cluster. Brimming with charm and curb appeal, this expanded and beautifully updated home shouldn't be missed with its inviting covered front porch, landscaped yard, and classic architecture. The main level offers a versatile and gracious floor plan with spacious formal living and dining rooms, a gas fireplace, glass doors that open to a private flagstone patio and fenced backyard and floor that floods the home with natural light. An expansive generous family room addition, with custom built-ins, oversized custom windows and serene backyard views, adds a comfortable central gathering space, while an updated kitchen provides functionality at the heart of the home. A dedicated home office with built-ins is ideal for remote work, and a convenient side entrance with a powder room and extra storage enhances everyday living. Upstairs, you'll find four bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths, including the owner’s suite addition, a spacious bedroom with en-suite half bath and closets galore, two more bedrooms and an updated hall full bathroom with soaking tub. A finished walk-up attic offers the perfect flex space—ideal as a studio, playroom, or creative retreat. The renovated walk-out lower level includes a guest suite, full bath, and additional living space for relaxation, recreation, or guests. Set on a private, fenced lot, this home is framed by lush flower beds, a flagstone patio, and a detached shed, and features recent upgrades that include a new roof and covered gutters, new water heater, replacement windows, upgraded appliances and a 5-year-old heat pump—making this truly a turnkey opportunity.
