The Hamlet neighborhood in Chevy Chase is beloved for its picturesque streets, charming homes and strong sense of community. This home offers all that and has been updated and maintained, including a gourmet kitchen.

A center hall welcomes you with a curved staircase and a two-story ceiling. Flanking the entry are a traditional living room and a formal dining room. There are 9-foot ceilings throughout the main level, and the dining room features a coffered ceiling. Hardwood floors are found throughout the home.

At the back of the house, an open family room connects to a stunning kitchen, with a relaxed dining area in between. This bright gathering space has a gas fireplace, large windows and access to the backyard. Enjoy a gourmet kitchen, featuring high-end appliances, a center island and floor-to-ceiling white cabinetry (offering lots of storage).

A butler’s pantry between the dining room and kitchen, and built-in bench seating in the breakfast nook add to the functionality and charm. Tucked away off the main living space, you’ll find a laundry room and mudroom. Everything has been updated with top-of-the-line finishes.

Upstairs, there are four bedrooms and two updated bathrooms. The primary is accented by a tray ceiling, two walk-in closets, and a luxurious en suite bathroom. It features a soaking tub, a separate glass shower and dual vanities.

The lower level has been finished and contains a surprising amount of space. This includes a large recreation room, a den with a stone fireplace, a fifth bedroom and a full bath.

Outside, enjoy a rear stone patio and green space. The house also has a detached two-car garage.

Living in the Hamlet means you’re minutes from the best shops and restaurants in Chevy Chase and Bethesda. Rock Creek Park is also nearby. The home is about 1.5 miles north of the D.C. line.
