4209 Bradley Ln

OPEN HOUSE Saturday and Sunday October 18 and 19--2:00 to 4:00 The magnificent facade of this beautifully renovated home evokes an earlier, more gracious era yet is only a fifteen minute walk to the Bethesda Metro. Anthropology and other Bethesda Row shops and restaurants are only about a .8 mile walk! Set nicely back from the street, the home has stately white columns supporting a handsome covered portico in front, and airy porches along the side and rear. A circular drive provides easy access at any time of day. Inside are large, light-filled common rooms with high ceilings, tall windows and elegant fixtures -- a beautiful living room with fireplace, an expansive dining room, a sitting room, a dramatic family room and an extraordinary kitchen/family room with French doors to the back terrace and garden. The second floor features a luxurious primary suite plus three additional bedrooms and baths; the top floor has two more bedrooms, a television watching space and beautiful views over the neighborhood. In addition to the circular front drive, the home has a picturesque garage and a rear motor court where additional cars can be parked. The level back yard has ample room for sports practice or a swimming pool, should new owners wish to add one. Eight years ago, the home (and garage) underwent a complete two-year renovation and has all new systems and a partially new roof. It is listed on the Maryland Historic Register as well as the Montgomery County register.
