The Edgemoor, #703

Bethesda, MD 20814

There is something about the 4800 block of Montgomery Lane that retains an Old Bethesda charm which contributes to the appeal of this special property. Built in 2003 by the highly regarded PN Hoffman company, this boutique property with only 55 units is your chance to be literally in the thick of it one block from the heart of vibrant Bethesda Row and a nice stroll to what us locals call Old Bethesda (the other side of Old Georgetown Road.) It would take a separate brochure to list everything about this location but to highlight the only way to live closer to Metro would be to pitch a tent at the Metro platform. Hungry? The Bethesda Urban Partnership website (bup.org) lists 178 restaurants. Interestingly, Open Table posts 381 fun restaurants in Bethesda. (Really?) A half block to the public library, a block to Giant and about a mile to Harris Teeter and the new Trader Joes. Being well sated makes proximity to the Capital Crescent Trail particularly wonderful (and necessary!) And returning home you can count on a warm greeting from the 24-hour desk attendant. That 10 mile walk on the trail wasnt enough? There is an efficient exercise room on the lower level. Will all of your friends will want to visit you at your chic new home? Dont miss the lovely lobby level party room with access to the private rear garden. Apartment 703 offers just under 1400sf including a bright living/dining area, highlighted by floor to ceiling window/doors plus a charming den. This space is highlighted by floor to ceiling window/doors lined by a Juliet balcony - nice. The adjacent modern kitchen has a breakfast bar, granite countertops, 2-year-old GE Monogram stainless counter depth fringe and a convenient washer dryer equipped closet. This core area is bookended by 2 bedrooms: the generously sized primary with marbled ensuite bath and walk-in closet and on the other side of the apartment a nicely proportioned 2nd bedroom, positioned directly across from the 2nd full bath. Included in the purchase are 2 separately deeded garage spaces and an oversized storage cage (also separately deeded). This spotless home was just meticulously repainted and details, details new Lutron plugs and light switches thru-out plus new smoke + carbon monoxide detectors. Simply the best condo under a million! Life simplification accomplished. The only thing left to say is "Welcome Home!"
