Contemporary

The hard to find main level primary suite is here on a quarter-acre lot in Somerset! This stunning, award-winning contemporary, whose design was adapted from Hugh Newell Jacobsen's "Dream Home" and built in 2007, has approximately 5,300 square feet of space. Offering soaring ceilings, walls of windows, gorgeous hickory floors and fabulous entertaining and everyday living spaces, the home brings the outdoors inside yet maintains incredible privacy. The center pavilion of the home includes entry foyer and a living room with 20' ceilings, a linear gas firebox and walls of glass into the expansive, domed screened porch and to the marble patios and heated saltwater pool beyond. A large chef's kitchen with custom cabinetry, island with seating for four and dining area are found in the west wing of the home, along with powder room, mud room with laundry, access to the attached 2-car garage and stairway to the lower level. Three bedroom suites, including the primary suite, are found in the east wing of the main level. The primary includes sumptuous bath, and two walk-in closets, one of which is a custom Poliform closet and could also function as additional living/work space. Each of the other two bedroom suites includes a loft area. A very generously sized family room is found on the lower level, along with three additional bedrooms (one is currently used as a gym) and two more full baths. There is also a kitchenette with wine cooler, plus a second laundry area and a separate entrance on this level. Gorgeous marble patios and decking overlook the heated salt-water pool, set among lovely plantings and green space. Somerset is beloved for its welcoming community, fabulous schools, neighborhood pool and fantastic location between Friendship Heights and Bethesda, with access to both metros and shopping. Numerous parks and playgrounds are also nearby, as is the Capital Crescent Trail. This is a truly special home in an unbeatable spot!
