Quintessentially charming historic stone house located in the sought after Town of Somerset. Originally built in 1935, a major renovation in 2018 by Zantzinger brought the home up to today’s living standards. The home maintains all of the charm and character of the original house but now offers better flow, functionality, and comfort. Upon entering a vaulted living room with wood burning fireplace and Urban Electric pendant lights sets a warm and inviting tone. Off the living room a den with custom floating bookshelves and ceiling paneling offers space for a reading nook, office area, or small TV room. The kitchen is the central focal point connecting the dining and living room to the beautiful rear patio through double doors with side lights. The first floor has a large family room with gas fireplace and windows on three sides, an adjoining pantry with limestone tile floors and built in shelves and laundry. Additionally the pantry has a full bathroom with tiled shower and basalt sink. The second floor has two bedrooms and a bathroom as well as a primary suite with ceiling fan, art light, two closets, and bath with marble and stone tile. The top floor has a delightful bedroom with tree top views to the backyard and built in bookshelves and bench seat. A mature garden in the front yard includes a heritage crepe myrtle, three varieties of hydrangeas, and a dogwood. Toward the rear is a rose garden and a quiet fenced in stone patio with perennials, a flowering cherry tree, and a line of American hornbeams. A garage can be accessed via the rear drive. Some updates since 2018 include; dual zone HVAC system, a new roof, new windows, new bathrooms, new pantry, coat closet, enlarged third floor room and a new rear stone patio. Outside the home, enjoy proximity to Somerset Elementary School, the beloved Somerset pool, tennis courts, Capello Park and nearby Friendship Heights metro, Bethesda and the Capital Crescent Trail.
