5631 Knollwood Rd, Bethesda, MD 20816

Nestled into a lush corner lot of the close-in Bethesda neighborhood, Springfield, this solidly built home welcomes you with contemporary sensibilities and a versatile floor plan to meet your every need. The bright, updated kitchen has abundant white cabinetry and new quartz countertops, including a breakfast bar that is open to the living area. The adjacent, skylit room is great as a dining room or it could be a home office. There is a step-down, 10’ ceiling family room with sunlight streaming through the large windows to highlight the exposed brick wall and elaborate built-in cabinets and shelves. A wood burning fireplace lends warmth to the living area with its wonderful picture window. The door from the kitchen opens on to a spacious deck to enjoy the pleasant, newly fenced backyard. The hardwood flooring has been freshly refinished and you will be impressed by the recently installed hardscape of the driveway and walk. A variety of special trees and plants surround the home with a natural garden of greenery. There are three bedrooms and two bathrooms on the main level, one of which is the primary bedroom with a wall of closets and en-suite bath. The lower level has a large recreation room for much additional living area. The laundry and utility room offers plenty of storage space and has an exit stairway to the backyard. Pull-down stairs lead to a terrific storage attic that is semi-finished with drywall and recessed lighting. This wonderful home offers the excellent condition a new owner hopes to find. The convenience of having Wood Acres Elementary School and the Wood Acres neighborhood park a short walk away, and the Crescent Trail right down the road, add to the opportunity found here. The commute to downtown DC is a friendly one and it is a short ride to thriving downtown Bethesda. When the redevelopment of the Westbard Shopping area is complete, the proximity of this fine home will only add to its value. Served by Walt Whitman High School, this one is special and should not be missed!
