Property Description
One of a kind, expanded colonial, rich in history, in the highly desirable Ayrlawn community! The core of this home was built in 1841 and was the Ayrlawn Farms Dairyman’s Building. Two additions have greatly expanded the space. Main level features living room, parlor, and dining room with hardwood floors and custom windows; kitchen; a spacious family room which overlooks a private backyard; and full bath. Upper level boasts four bedrooms with hardwood floors, a large unfinished addition with potential, and a full bath. Lower level is an organizer or handyman dream -- lots of versatile work and storage space and a laundry area. Potential for more living space! Upgrades include roof (2018), furnace (2020), and nine custom Pella windows (2023). Features include vintage fireplace, custom cabinetry, and historic charm! Driveway allows for two-car off-street parking. Award-winning schools and major transportation routes are minutes away! Downtown Bethesda, shopping, NIH, and Walter Reed are close. Home is being sold "as is," but it has been faithfully maintained.
Ayrlawn Farms was owned by businessman and philanthropist John C. Letts and his family from 1928-1946. Letts developed a nationally-known farm, garnering many awards with his prize livestock. Nearby Ayrlawn Park contains some vestiges of the Farm complex which was a Bethesda anchor for the agricultural community that was once Montgomery County. This home on Johnson Avenue is not designated historic, but its history can come alive with an appreciative buyer!
