6905 Maple Ave, Chevy Chase, MD 20815

NEW LISTING! Welcome to this classic 1923 porch-front home set on idyllic Maple Avenue in the Town of Chevy Chase. Walk to Trader Joe's and all of downtown Bethesda, as well as the award-winning Chevy Chase Elementary School (CCES), part of the International Baccalaureate public school cluster. While thoughtfully upgraded for today’s modern living, great care has been taken to retain the architectural integrity of the home. On the main level, there is a welcoming foyer, hardwood floors, built-in bookshelves, custom lighting and a romantic gas stone fireplace. The kitchen is spectacular and features a gleaming white chef's kitchen with custom cabinetry and glass-front doors, a 5-burner gas cooktop with stainless steel hood, quartz and butcherblock countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a deep double sink with window overlooking the pretty backyard. French-style doors flank the fireplace and lead to the deep, covered front porch with ceiling fan, new dental molding, railings, and plenty of space for entertaining. The generous dining room leads to the first floor home office/den (could be a 4th bedroom) and magnificent full marble bathroom with oversized, glass-enclosed shower. Hardwood floors continue on the upper level to three bright, generous-sized sunny bedrooms. A newly renovated second floor bathroom boasts a new tub, sink, toilet, tile and fixtures, and storage area. The lower level was completely finished and transformed by the current owners, creating an amazing family room space and artist’s studio. Improvements include new ceiling height, custom lighting, flooring, walls, laundry alcove, generous closet, new full-sized windows with egress wells. The new full bathroom in the lower level features a glass-enclosed shower, and all new fixtures and tile. The attached garage fits one car comfortably. The fully fenced backyard features a two-level Azec deck with accent lighting, a circular stone sitting area with accent fountain, and shade gardens planted with new shrubs, bulbs and perennials. A beautiful natural stone retaining wall runs down the driveway and across the front of property, and landscape lighting leads from the sidewalk to the front door. The Town of Chevy Chase is one of the most desirable neighborhoods in the entire Washington area. Quiet streets are lined with tall trees and friendly neighbors always stop to say hello as they stroll down the abundant sidewalks. The Town offers an array of community services and there are committees who plan many different events for residents of all ages, including children’s movie nights, chili dinners, bourbon tastings, clothing drives, singing groups, and so much more. This home is also eligible for membership in the popular Chevy Chase Recreation Association Swim & Tennis Club (CCRA). CCRA has an excellent swim team, and hosts many family events throughout the summer. The CCRA Café offers a full menu including healthy dining options, which makes it an ideal spot for summertime fun. Downtown Bethesda, the Lawton Community Center and the Red Line Metro are all within a half mile of this fine home.
