NEW LISTING! Open Saturday (7/11) from Noon to 2PM! Welcome to this charming rancher that has been loved and cared for, beautifully maintained and refreshed...and now ready for you to make it your own! This is the perfect combo of move-in ready condition, prime location, and a gorgeous lot with a large backyard and the much-desired private driveway. Fresh paint and rich hardwood floors will grab your eye the moment you walk in the front door. Enter a generous living room with large picture window, step into the formal dining space, and then into a warm and inviting kitchen with a surprising amount of counter and cabinets, and also a new refrigerator in 2025! A few steps will take you to a large, two-level, AMAZING rear deck and easy access to the gorgeous finished patio at the walk-out level. The backyard is a show-stopper --- green, level, private, and the big storage shed conveys! Back inside, the main level primary bedroom boasts restored hardwood flooring, as do the other two main level bedrooms. The primary bath has been updated, including floor-to-ceiling tile in the tub/shower. The lower level has a walkout, space for everyone and features a large and open rec room space, incredible knotty pine walls, and easy access to second full bath. The utility room is light and large enough to host extra storage space. Warm gas heat (new in 2013), water heater (2025), and central air conditioning make for the perfect in-home climate. All of the hard work has been done --- the premium architectural shingle roof was replaced in 2024.! Your future home is located less than a mile from the Dewey Local Dog Park, Little Towns Children's Museum, and Beach Drive, part of the Montgomery Parks Open Parkways program-which closes to motor vehicles on weekends to expand recreational space for pedestrians and cyclists. Located just minutes from 355 Rockville Pike, you'll find everything you need within reach. The new Pike and Rose District, with its array of shops and restaurants, adds to the appeal, providing a lively atmosphere for dining and entertainment and similarly, downtown Bethesda is also just a short drive away. Commuters will appreciate the home's proximity to major transportation, including public bus routes, as well as the Bethesda, and North Bethesda metro stations. Major highways such as I-495 and I-270 are also easily accessible, making travel to Washington D.C. and beyond a breeze. The bustling Randolph Hills Shopping Center is nearby, offering a variety of shopping and grocery options. Nature enthusiasts will love being just a short walk from Rock Creek Park, where you can enjoy scenic bike and hiking trails. This home offers a commuter's dream location combined with the comfort and convenience of nearby amenities, schools, parks, and recreational opportunities. Enjoy the best of all worlds in this ideally situated property.
