Description
Truly magical homes begin with a vision-
back in 1917, the historic town of somerset was an enchanting village dotted with classic frame dwellings constructed in the late 1800s and nestled on rolling farmland with a landscape of forests, streams, and golden meadows. cumberland avenue, one of the five original lanes within this growing township, featured some of the most picturesque residences within montgomery county. the variety of architecture among these impressive residences was an experience to tour as part of a tranquil neighborhood stroll. over time, the town of somerset grew into the thriving community that it is today.
the architectural design of the property was a wonderful enhancement to the original streetscape back in 1917. the premium lot selected was perfectly oriented with a broad & glorious full southern exposure. the home's enchanting full-width front porch anchored the impressive residence. the porch drew visitors to the home as a place to enjoy lazy afternoons with neighborly conversations, to savor morning coffee or to dine al-fresco, and to capture multi-generational moments in time.
in the last few years, this exceptional residence has been thoughtfully restored with exquisite custom updates, premium finishes, and seamless transitions for the very best of indoor & outdoor living. the transformation was achieved through a collaboration between the owners and the pagenstecher group. this neighborhood classic offers a fresh & luxurious lifestyle while residing as a hallmark home.
the property grounds are exceptional and expansive. it boasts a rare circular driveway of aggregate stone, a porte cochere leading to a two-story garage and/or hobby space complete with a cathedral ceiling and a cavernous potting (with sink) & storage shed, too! the rear grounds are a private park-like oasis. there's an abundance of mature landscaping and attractive hardscape for outdoor enjoyment.
enjoy an amazing lifestyle seldom found so close to our nation's capital. norman rockwell could not have envisioned such a special property to call home. the award-winning somerset elementary school is at the top of the street and has been rebuilt to embrace the historic beauty of the nearby homes. the somerset pool is a casual stroll through the neighborhood. there's a town hall, tennis & basketball courts, a baseball pitching cage, a community park, and walking trails (one behind the town pool that makes pedestrian access to the friendship heights red line metro station and the best of friendship heights incredibly convenient!)
in addition, all of the enjoyment of little falls and norwood parks is nearly at your doorstep.
a visit to downtown bethesda couldn't be easier than a scenic stroll along the capital crescent hiker/biker trail is just around the corner.
opportunity is knocking today, not necessarily tomorrow!
