About this home
This Chevy Chase Colonial stunner has always been a head-turner, with each chapter bringing its own layer of care and improvement. But this is the moment where it all comes together. What has long been a well-loved home has now found its best, most complete expression. And we all rejoice.
Set on a prominent corner in the Town of Chevy Chase, 3916 Blackthorn Street reflects a thoughtful, hands-on transformation by owners who have carefully shaped the home to feel welcoming, comfortable, and quietly refined.
From the moment you arrive, that intention is clear. The entire exterior has been freshly painted, complemented by newly added shutters, enhanced lighting, and antique custom front door that creates a sense of arrival. A custom arbor, fenced yard, and crafted side gate charm and function, while the covered front porch offers a natural gathering point for everything from morning coffee to evening conversations.
Inside, the home unfolds across four finished levels, offering both scale and flexibility. With six bedrooms and six full baths, the layout provides privacy where needed and connection where it matters, including workspace on each level. The rooms feel defined yet open, allowing the house to adapt easily to how you live day to day.
The main level balances openness with warmth. Hardwood floors have been sanded and stained to bring out their richness, while built-ins in the dining area have been enhanced for additional storage. In the living room, an antique fireplace mantel was added as a focal point, grounding the space and adding a layer of comfort. The home office / main floor guest room is tucked away. Easily configured into a main floor bedroom suite, it includes closet space and an adjacent en suite full bath for further functionality.
The open kitchen, outfitted with professional-grade stainless steel appliances, connects seamlessly to the surrounding living and dining areas. With a large center island with ample counter space encourages gatherings. Open to the oversized family room and additional dining space, it serves as the true heart of the home. The family room is lined with oversized windows and multiple french doors connecting entertainment spaces indoors and out. It features oversized built-ins, a fireplace, and light flooding from all sides.
Throughout the home, finishes feel elevated but not overdone. Lighting from Visual Comfort and tailored window treatments from Elizabeth Eakins and Jasper create a cohesive, layered look that adds to the overall sense of ease.
Upstairs, the bedroom levels continue that balance of comfort and versatility. The second floor includes three large bedrooms, a renovated hall bath. In addition, a massive primary suite with multiple closets, and a fully renovated en suite bath creates a sumptuous, private retreat
The third-floor loft, with cathedral ceilings and multiple skylights, works as a private suite, office, or flexible retreat. With a fully renovated full bath, ample storage, and statement lighting, it’s yet another living space designed for today’s lifestyles. The lower level has been fully finished as a true extension of the home, offering an in-law or guest apartment complete with its own kitchen, living area, legal bedroom, and accessible full bath.
The exterior spaces have been equally considered. Multiple decks extend the living areas outdoors, while practical improvements such as buried downspouts, an added hose bib, and under-deck storage access reflect the level of care throughout. A curb cut has already been installed, setting up the opportunity for a future driveway and garage.
All just moments from Metro, downtown Bethesda, and easy commute to Downtown D.C., this home offers a rare combination of classic character, meaningful updates, and everyday convenience. The Town of Chevy Chase is a vibrant residential enclave known for its well-maintained streets, architectural charm, and unparalleled convenience....
