5007 BALTIMORE AVENUE

BETHESDA, MD20816

Enchanting, light-filled, beautifully sited. Welcome to this expanded five bedroom home in “The Westbrook Neighborhood.” Thoughtfully updated and renovated by Anthony Wilder, 5007 Baltimore Avenue blends classic charm with a calm, Scandinavian-inspired sensibility that emphasizes light, openness, and livable elegance. The home enjoys tremendous curb appeal, hinting at the warmth and character within -- arched doorways, interesting woodwork, gleaming hardwood floors, and large windows that draw sunlight into the home from both the front and the back. The fantastic floor plan allows for multiple entertaining options, including two back patios overlooking a manicured, fenced-in backyard. Guests are welcomed by an expansive paved driveway and a curved stairway surrounded by a lush front yard, mature shrubbery, and stone paths. Inside, a traditional center-hall foyer leads to the formal living room, anchored by a fireplace, as well as a versatile first-floor bedroom option with murphy bed. The elegant dining room boasts chair rail molding and French doors opening to the back patio and connects seamlessly to the stunning, light-filled kitchen. Here, design and function come together with stainless steel appliances including a gas range, built-in microwave, and wine refrigerator, along with a gorgeous farmhouse sink, pantry, and built-ins. A mudroom off the kitchen, accessed from a side door, allows for excellent daily flow into the home. A cheery sunroom, also with patio access, and a powder room complete the main level. Upstairs are four generously sized bedrooms, including the owner’s bedroom with dual closets and an en suite full bath. A convenient second-floor laundry room, a full hall bath with two sinks, and linen closets add everyday practicality. What is even more fun? One bedroom includes a cozy sleeping loft above the bedroom which is bound to be a hit. The lower level features an oversized recreation room with recessed lighting, a wet bar, and a bonus room, as well as a door to the backyard and access to the attached one-car garage. The yard is a standout. Fully fenced, it provides multiple entertainment options for both two- and four-legged friends. Large enough to accommodate another addition in the future, or just double-down on the flowers and garden. It’s a true retreat. 5007 Baltimore Avenue benefits from neighborhood parks and trails and is convenient to Friendship Heights, Spring Valley, Westbard Square, downtown Bethesda, the Capital Crescent Trail, and major transportation routes. Named one of Bethesda Magazine’s “Great Neighborhoods,” the Westbrook neighborhood is a well-established community that continues to delight residents decade after decade with its Fourth of July and Halloween parades, block parties, and other neighborhood traditions. 5007 Baltimore Avenue is a short stroll to neighborhood favorites including Millie’s, the hometown butcher Wagshal’s, and sidewalk dining at Pizzeria Paradiso, along with Compass Coffee, Crate & Barrel, and the Spring Valley Shopping Center.
