TWO PRIMARY SUITES and 16 x 16 GOURMET KITCHEN in desirable LAFAYETTE School District. This historical Chevy Chase Brick Colonial blends classic craftsmanship with modern designer renovations, this elegant 6-bedroom, 4.5-bath Colonial showcases timeless architecture, luxury finishes, and exceptional livability on one of Chevy Chase DC’s most picturesque, tree-lined streets. A flagstone walkway beneath a 65-year-old Japanese red maple leads to an arched entry and private tiered stone backyard oasis. Inside, original oak and heart pine floors, custom crown moldings, and brass-and-gold-leaf sconces frame a sun-filled living room with wood-burning fireplace and original artisan mantel. The formal dining room, finished in Benjamin Moore’s Brushed Aluminum with custom panel molding and iron-and-gold-leaf chandelier, connects through a butler’s pantry with wet bar, beverage refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, and extra disposal. The 16×16 chef’s kitchen is a true showpiece—perfect for entertaining. Featuring Calacatta Imperial marble island, countertops, and backsplash, lime-washed exposed brick, and custom Pioneer cabinets built in Lancaster, PA with solid walnut reeded island fronts, banquette seating with built-in smart TV, and a vintage-style walnut china cabinet.
