Property Description
Step into Chevy Chase history as you enter this stunning Mediterranean Revival home, designed and built in 1911 by the renowned architect Waddy Wood. Nestled in the heart of Chevy Chase Village, this estate sits on a 15,000-square-foot lot, showcasing exquisite gardens, impeccable landscaping, and a lovely pool.
The home's distinctive pebble dash exterior and classic architectural details set it apart. A beautiful double door entryway and vestibule lead to a gracious foyer with exquisite plaster moldings and glass French doors on either side. The light-filled living room on the right, adorned with beautiful woodwork, high ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, and custom built-ins, features two walls of windows offering serene garden views. The original side porch has been enclosed, creating a cozy library with direct access to the rear gardens.
To the left of the foyer, a magnificent dining room awaits, featuring deep green lacquered walls that evoke springtime or holiday festivities, depending on the season. This room also boasts lovely moldings and an additional fireplace. The dining room opens to a light-filled family room with French doors leading to a large porch covered by a stunning pergola draped with wisteria and covered by a fitted awning that provides protection from the weather.
The spacious table-space kitchen features gas cooking and light on three sides. It is also equipped with an island, custom Wood-Mode cabinetry, and a built-in desk. The kitchen offers seamless access to the rear yard via a back porch and also connects to the pergola-covered porch overlooking the pool.
Upstairs, you will find three bedrooms, including a primary suite featuring a sitting room, en-suite bath, fireplace, and access to a large porch with copper flooring. Two additional bedrooms share a hall bath. As on the main level, the wood floors are original. A walk-up attic provides endless storage possibilities.
A covered archway on the exterior of the main level of the property connects to a large two-car garage and to a second-floor apartment with a vaulted ceiling and windows overlooking the pool. This multi-purpose space can be used as an office, guest suite, or au-pair suite. It includes a bedroom area, sitting area, full bath and a mini kitchenette.
The estate's outdoor spaces are delightful, with beautiful gardens and mature landscaping providing privacy for the 45 by 15 foot heated pool. The pool features an automatic cover, a bar area with a sink and refrigerator, and a slate-surround patio, creating a perfect setting for relaxation and entertaining.
This iconic Chevy Chase Village home seamlessly blends historic character with modern day delights. Its expansive living and entertaining spaces are a pleasure in every season. Don't miss the opportunity to enjoy this unique, charmingly renovated expression of architectural history in one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in the Chevy Chase area.
