7203 Summit Avenue

If you look for the definition of “charming” in the dictionary, you will find a picture of 7203 Summit Avenue in historic Martin’s Addition, Chevy Chase, Maryland. This beautifully sequestered yet conveniently located home instantly welcomes you, with its large, well-landscaped front yard, brick walkway and custom window boxes reminiscent of French country cottages. Inside there are many thoughtful touches, such as designer light fixtures and new oiled bronze doorknobs. The front door opens to a parlor-sized foyer with a fireplace and modern lighting. The rest of the main floor is similarly spacious, with a formal dining room, sitting room, powder room, and gorgeous kitchen open to the well-outfitted family room. The family room leads to a porch, flagstone patio and lush private backyard. A mud room with a separate entrance completes this floor. Upstairs are four bedrooms and 2 baths; the master suite is huge and includes high ceilings and lots of light, which contribute to the expansive feeling, and a just-renovated luxurious bath with skylight. Hardwood flooring runs throughout the first and second floors. The finished basement has luxury vinyl tile floors and houses a storage room, laundry area, and recreation room. And this home has a fabulous bonus: a free-standing office, or studio. Just completed, located steps from the family room, the office has concrete floors and dedicated heating and air conditioning, making it the perfect spot for working in privacy at home. In sum, 7203 Summit Avenue has all the ingredients for comfortable, contemporary living. Just a three minute walk to the weekly organic farmer’s market and the neighbor- hood’s own French restaurant, La Ferme, there is also the convenience of Brookville Market and Pharmacy, the popular Olympia Diner, a dry cleaners and a barbershop. All of this just adds to the fact that 7203 Summit Avenue has all in a wonderful neighborhood.
