Welcome to storybook charm on one of the prettiest streets in the sought-after Barnaby Woods section of friendly and welcoming Chevy Chase, DC. The 3100 block of Upland Terrace is known for its sense of community, block parties and neighborly vibe.
This lovingly maintained home is truly move-in ready (just freshly painted, new lighting installed and floors polished) with updates, custom features and original detailing at every turn: arched doorways, crown moldings, gleaming hardwood floors, and a rare, 8,600+ SF flat and grassy lot. A curved stone path leads up from the street to a welcoming front portico and into the proper foyer, the powder room for guests and coat closet are nicely located in a separate alcove. The main floor has an ideal circular flow and layout for how we live and work today -- with an entertaining-sized formal living room with a wood-burning fireplace and original wood mantel that leads into the sunny, windowed family room and around to a dedicated den/office with french doors. The formal dining room with ample seating is conveniently adjacent to the sunny kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and the eat-in breakfast room with a high-top table for four -- a door leads out to the custom bluestone patio that's just perfect for al fresco dining and grilling. The upper level has a large landing that leads to two nicely sized bedrooms, one with a desk and built-ins, a hall bath with tub, and the spacious primary suite with two closets and a renovated white and bright en suite full bath with an oversized marble shower. The upper level delivers two more bedrooms with skylights, a full bath and a cedar closet. The bright and open lower level family room has been beautifully renovated with LVT flooring, recessed can lighting, a mini kitchen and a Pinterest-worthy laundry room with barn doors, and a full bath ideal for guests, an au pair or in-laws. The show-stopping backyard is a private oasis with a stone patio for play, entertaining, a grilling area, and a lush, grassy and flat yard -- let your imagination run wild! (Sport court? Pool? Expand the existing house?)
