With its stately brick front and wooded lot, 5439 Alta Vista Road embodies a classic colonial charm while representing rare newer construction and all of its associated benefits in a central Bethesda location. Set back from the street in a peaceful, tree-lined community, a long driveway leads up to the attached two-car garage and covered front entrance. Inside, the double-height foyer and prominent staircase make a statement, introducing a spacious open concept floor plan encompassing approximately 6,250 square feet of luxury living space. To one side, an illuminated niche adds a layer of intimacy to the soaring space. On the opposite side are the formal living and dining rooms, open to one another for effortless flow, and with multi-piece crown, chair rail, and shadow box moldings against wooded views. Along the rear of the home, spanning its entire width, are the informal spaces. The chef’s kitchen features rich, dark cabinetry and a commercial-grade Jenn Air range top alongside a large granite-topped island with bar seating. Adjacent is the ethereal breakfast with direct outdoor access afforded by a bay window with lush views. Completing the main level is a generous family room with a wall of windows and a cozy gas fireplace. The upper level mezzanine is flooded with natural light from the palladian window above the main entrance, and branches off to four spacious bedrooms. Amongst them, occupying an entire wing of the home, is the sumptuous primary suite. Double doors open into a vestibule with separate large walk-in closets and a spa-inspired marble bath. The former pair have extensive built-in shelving, while the latter boasts a corner soaking tub, dual vanities, makeup counter, and walk-in shower with multiple body sprayers. The home’s lower level offers incredible bonus space. A wraparound, fully-open recreation room enables endless activities, while a full bath, exercise room, and dedicated storage room augment practicality. Out back, the large deck descends to a generous, private, usable grassy lawn – a rare find in such a close-in location. Blocks to NIH, Walter Reed, and the Medical Center Metro Station, as well as mere minutes to Downtown Bethesda’s shops and eateries, 5439 Alta Vista road conjures up a unique blend of comfortable, effortless living and urban convenience.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
