Three bedrooms with two full baths upstairs are all bathed in natural light, including the primary suite with striking cathedral ceiling and custom glazing.

The Brookdale Neighborhood, developed between 1934 and 1950, is known by its village-like quality, evoked by the cottage-style architecture, a lack of sidewalks, and the nature of its landscaping, which includes mature trees and cottage-style plantings. Brookdale Citizens Association is an active proponent of enjoyable neighborhood events like block parties and Halloween events; and also publishes the charming Brookdale Bugle neighborhood newsletter. The neighborhood is just steps to the restaurants, shops, Whole Foods, Metro, and offices of Friendship Heights, while also supremely convenient to Spring Valley and Tenleytown. Close to Metro and the Capital Crescent Trail. Westbrook, Westland, and B-CC schools serve the neighborhood.
