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 Joe’s. 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 wasn’t 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? Don’t 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!"

Every long once in a while advantage and opportunity intersect in one's life. That time is now. 2,663 square feet is remarkable space for any apartment. Put that on the top floor of an elegant building in its own wing, surround it with 3 exposures and evenly space 11 sets of French doors & windows all around and add an expansive balcony for good measure - that is the definition of unique city living. The space of the living room and adjacent dining room can only be described as vast (36ft, wall to wall!). The living room has cherry built-ins (matching the kitchen cabinetry) and 2 sets of French doors leading to the balcony. And the kitchen deserves special mention: appointed with the Cherry cabinetry, 'Verde Ventura" granite counters & breakfast bar, stainless appliances including a Viking 6-burner gas cooktop, Viking side-by-side refrigerator, glass-front Viking under-the-counter wine fridge, and a Bosch dishwasher. The large corner primary bedroom features a tray ceiling, custom plantation shutters, a walk-in closet the size of my first apartment and a sprawling windowed ensuite bath with an unusually long double vanity, jetted soaking tub and separate shower. On the other side of the layout is the 2nd bedroom, also on a corner with tray ceiling & plantation shutters, has 2 closets and another bright ensuite bath with French doors (nice bathroom detail!) A powder room and a separate laundry room add to the house-like feel. All is enhanced by fresh paint, brand new Brazilian cherry wood flooring throughout, high ceilings and substantial trim & hardware (good example: 7-ft high, 1-Â¾ inch thick solid core doors). The 2 garage spaces include one of the very few fully enclosed structures allowing you to shut a single overhead door behind you. Not only does this accommodate a full-size car, but also allows for generous extra storage â this is in addition to a storage cage. Did I mention opportunity?
