About this home
Tucked away behind the nationally-renowned Congressional Country Club, its namesake Country Club Drive is one of Bethesda’s most prestigious streets, with a mere 26 of the very finest estate homes dotted along sweeping curves in a picturesque setting. Within this rarified air, set far back from the street on a magnificent, verdant two-acre lot, is this quintessential custom built estate home, originally constructed for its discerning owner.
Approached by an elegant circular driveway, the white brick and siding facade capped by a synthetic slate roof evokes cues of classic old-world New England colonials situated on large swaths of land, exuding an ethos of quiet luxury. Traversing the portico and mahogany front door framed by intricate transom windows reveals a classic foyer with a prominent grand staircase. Exquisite millwork and wide plank oak flooring set the tone for a refined atmosphere of warmth and sophistication.
Formal living and dining rooms flank the reception area in a traditional center hall layout. Both spaces are generously proportioned for large scale gatherings, and each feature a roaring fireplace, two of six in the home, along with stylish accent lighting. The latter features built-in china displays while the former flows into a richly paneled library, boasting another fireplace, bridging both living and family rooms. An ethereal space as a byproduct of double sets of French doors opening onto the rear patio, the family room’s coffered ceiling and stone fireplace inject intimacy into an otherwise substantial room.
At the heart of the home’s informal area is the award-winning chef’s kitchen, fully reimagined by Jack Rosen Custom Kitchens to blur the lines between aesthetics and function. Bright white shaker cabinetry contrasts with dark-stained hardwood floors, while the thick, honed Carrara marble island top does the same with stunning leathered granite perimeter counters. A spectacular custom stainless-steel hood is the centerpiece, while a comprehensive suite of Wolf and SubZero appliances represents the top-of-the-line in commercial grade equipment. The adjoining butler’s pantry has been reimagined with lighted glass-front cabinetry and a wine fridge, effortlessly bridging the transition to the dining room. An adjacent keeping room with fireplace and sunlit breakfast room with paneled cathedral ceiling bring the outdoors in. The main level is thoughtfully completed with a spacious mudroom, featuring extensive built-in cabinetry and an adjoining full bathroom, providing a practical yet refined conclusion to the main level.
The upper level primary suite occupies a dedicated wing. Featuring a large bedroom with access to a private covered terrace, as well as a sitting room with a breakfast bar tucked away behind French doors, the space is a secluded retreat of opulence. The sumptuous bath features all of the ubiquitous spa-inspired amenities, including a jetted soaking tub, and the dressing room is lined with custom built-ins. Four secondary bedrooms and three baths are found on the upper level, while the top level loft can serve as an additional bedroom or multipurpose space....
