"Wood Acres"

 

Wood Acres is one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Bethesda, known for its attractive brick colonials shaded by towering trees. The atmosphere in Wood Acres is caring and friendly and there is a spirit of community that makes people proud to live here. The neighborhood elementary school was beautifully rebuilt in 2002 and the park behind the school is a “Norman Rockwell” setting for children of all ages. 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. Owning a home in Wood Acres gives you more than just a building with some rooms in it – you get the comforting feeling of “belonging” that comes with being part of a wonderful tradition that has been carefully nurtured by its residents for a very long time. It is an excellent place to live and you will love it!

The home pictured above has been enhanced with a few thoughtful renovations and additions. The most significant change was the redesign and expansion of the kitchen and dining area to create a bright, versatile central space that is perfect for cooking, eating and being together. The rear portion of this comfortable “great room” is all glass, affording a panoramic view of the lush green, extra-large lot and the natural beauty of the neighborhood. French doors from this “heart of the home” lead to a large deck for enjoying the pleasant, natural ambience of the mature trees and foliage. Another addition is the lower level family room which takes advantage of the walk-out basement. It has many windows and an exit to the backyard. The former garage has been finished to include another versatile room on the first floor, a powder room and a large storage closet. This fine home offers an excellent opportunity to become a part of one of Bethesda’s “blue chip” neighborhoods. Please enjoy your visit and thank you for your interest.
