Wood Acres is one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Bethesda, known for
its attractive brick colonials shaded by towering trees. Wood Acres has a caring,
friendly atmosphere, a terrific location convenient to important destinations,
and a spirit of community that makes people proud to live here. The neighborhood
elementary school was beautifully rebuilt in 2002. You may have even heard about
the fabulous Halloween festivities or the old-fashioned Fourth of July parade
and picnic that are famous in this part of Bethesda. You will love living here
- we all do!
The fine brick home described herein enjoys a setting considered
by many to be as idyllic as it gets in Wood Acres. Known by the community as "upper
Harwick", it is one of the few level streets in the neighborhood and does
not get much traffic. The home itself is gorgeous, highlighted by an expanded
designer kitchen with an adjoining breakfast room. High, angular ceiling lines
and lots of natural light make this a most pleasant space. There are three bedrooms
upstairs and three and a half updated baths in the house, plus two extra public
rooms and a deck on the main level. Generally excellent condition and a private
backyard which is perfect for kids' play and/or adult relaxation make this an
unusually special offering. Enjoy your visit! Price: $850,000 Lot
