A lantern in the forest, this 3 bed, 2 bath end unit welcomes with its glow, enveloped by the majestic green that gives the place its name. A sterling slice of Art Deco via the Bauhaus it s a contemporary showpiece renovated by renowned architect Mark McInturff, updated for today. From the brushed chrome door handles, to the streamline molding, to the sleekly styled windows hallmark of the moderne the renovation celebrates the aesthetic with finishes and fixtures that wed past with future. The sun-splashed vibe flows from room to room, evening glow enhanced by gallery lighting. In summer, stylish fans keep it cool in concert with a new HVAC system. Or go outside. French doors open into an ebullient landscape designed by the artist-owner. Next to a park, it s a short stroll down a wooded path to the town center. Like many architects, McInturff was smitten with the utopian community designed by out-of-work creatives, championed by Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt offering hope in challenging times. A moderne theater anchors the town center, where the New Deal Cafe offers the best in local music, and cuisine. The community center with signature Deco sculpture invites with programs for the active, along with two olympic pools, tennis courts, and fitness facility. Scenic trails loop a lake perfect on a lazy afternoon with delightful pocket parks, hidden from the street, throughout. Ahead of its time, Greenbelt is now a national historic landmark. As a bonus, architect McInturff designed a jewel-box addition, its sunny glass facade facing south into the secluded setting. A bedroom, family room, studio . . . your dream to build. Or, as shown here, a screen porch to enclose later. Though the community feels like a private enclave no cut-throughs it s right off 95 and the Baltimore-Washington Parkway, with Metro and Amtrak nearby. Weekends in New York, easy.
