Built to specification with an emphasis on flow, comfort, and elevated living, this Bethesda residence offers generous spaces, custom details, and luxe finishes at every turn. Step through the welcoming entry to find soaring ceilings, beautiful blond hardwoods, and wide stairwells and hallways that add to the overall sense of spaciousness throughout the home. To your right, find an inviting living room, with sight lines through the formal dining room into a large, open family room that connects the home in one direction to a remarkable chef's kitchen and in the other to a beautiful backyard by way of a stunning covered porch. Every detail has been curated in the luxury kitchen, from the gorgeous, oversized hood vent to stylish custom lighting, and an expansive kitchen island overlooking a sunlit family room and impressive fireplace. A large half bath, mudroom, and an impressive walk-in pantry add function and style to the level, which also allows access to a two car garage.

From the custom finishes to the wide halls and the beautiful outdoor property, every inch reflects high-end intention and enduring style.
Alta Vista, located between Downtown Bethesda and NIH, is a residential and walkable Bethesda neighborhood with leafy streets and a Metro-adjacent edge. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Bethesda Metro entrance at Wisconsin Ave & Old Georgetown Rd, where coffee counters, chef-driven dining rooms, and small storefronts set a steady weekday rhythm. Landmark Theatres Bethesda Row Cinema and Round House Theatre anchor local culture, with Bethesda Row’s independent boutiques adding polish. Housing leans toward mid-century colonials and updated ramblers on generous lots, with sidewalks that connect to nearby trails. Green space threads through at Ayrlawn Park and along the Capital Crescent Trail. The feel is calm and established, with a city-close cadence.
