This gracious split level on a corner lot in the picturesque Rock Creek Hills neighborhood of Kensington has SO much to offer. Timeless appeal, extensive updates, classic details, and other special features (including three fireplaces, one in the kitchen!) distinguish this attractive home. You will love the generous room sizes throughout - with a floor plan that provides ample space to spread out for both everyday living and group gatherings. Enter through the stately foyer to the main level with excellent flow and gorgeous oak floors, featuring: a stunning, high-end, renovated open kitchen with eat-in area and adjacent sitting room; an elegant living room with formal dining space; a bright and cheerful sunroom/family room overlooking the charming rear patio; and a renovated, thoughtfully placed half bath. There are three bedrooms and two full baths up, including a enormous primary suite with cathedral ceilings, walk-in closet, and spacious bath. Between the upper and lower levels, conveniently located just off the two-car garage entryway, are a fourth bedroom, office (or fifth bedroom), and third full bath, providing excellent and private space for guests or work-from-home needs. The lower level features a large recreation room with a bar area, an enormous storage room with laundry, and a second half-bath. Meticulously maintained, with so many major updates already in place, plus room to further customize to your preferences. And the location can't be beaten - on a quiet, leafy street in a treasured neighborhood close to Rock Creek Park, the Town of Kensington, Antique Row, restaurants, parks, and other attractions, with easy access to commuter routes, transportation, and other amenities. This is truly a home to live in for a lifetime.
