Large, gracious Colonial with lovely detail, 2-car garage, and so much room to grow in a coveted Chevy Chase neighborhood. Ideally located between Connecticut Ave & Wisconsin Ave, this special home is sited on a no-through street close to NIH and all the amenities of downtown Bethesda and Friendship Heights.

As you enter the foyer, arched doorways lead to the rear family room and side hallway with a powder room and exit to the 2-car garage. The family room has a fireplace and French doors to a deck overlooking a picturesque, landscaped & private backyard. Off the family room is an updated kitchen with granite countertops and stainless appliances including a gas range. Formal living and dining rooms offer space for entertaining. There are rich hardwood floors, recessed lights and oversized windows throughout, flooding the home with light.

In the foyer, a stairway with curved oak railing leads to the bedroom level featuring an enormous master with vaulted ceilings, two walls of windows, and space to accommodate a large sofa/sitting area. The ensuite bath is also large, with whirlpool tub, separate shower and double vanities. Three additional spacious bedrooms share a full bath off the hallway and all have generous closet space.

Stairs from the kitchen lead to the finished lower level recreation room that could also serve as a play and exercise room. There is also a utility room and very large storage room on this level.

Located just minutes from Bethesda and Chevy Chase shops and restaurants, this home is also near the Rock Creek Park trails, Meadowbrook Stables and the iconic Parkway Deli. NIH is also close by. Have it all at 8802 Altimont Lane. Welcome home!
