Charming Frame Colonial in Chevy Chase, DC

 Welcome to 3519 Patterson ST NW; a picture perfect home located on a coveted block of Washington's Chevy Chase neighborhood. This charming frame Colonial home is just 2 blocks from all the convenience of Connecticut AVE and one block from Lafayette Elementary School (including the wonderful playground). Chevy Chase is known for its tree lined and walk-able streets along with great recreation areas such as Rock Creek Park, and Chevy Chase Recreation Center.

A quaint white picket fence borders the front yard and complements the freshly painted white trim around the windows and doors on the home. A large front porch welcomes visitors and has a swing, built for two, perfect for enjoying a hot cup of coffee on a fall morning or a cold drink on a summer afternoon.

Stepping inside, the spacious living room feels bright and airy. A wood burning fireplace with surrounding built-in bookshelves completes the room. The large dining room flows to a small family gathering area and then out French doors onto a large wooden deck. An updated kitchen (new appliances, lighting, hardware and counter-tops) is a cooks delight with a gas stove, ample counter-top space and plenty of storage. A completely updated powder bath completes the main level.

The home's second story has three well proportioned rooms. The first bedroom has light flooding in from two sides and nice built-in bookshelves. The second room must be passed through to reach the third so it is perfectly suited for a large home office or guest room. The third room has a great closet and light from two sides. A large, updated, bathroom and small linen closet round out this story.

The home's third story is a private master suite. Ample closet space, windows on all sides and a wonderful bathroom make this a true retreat. The bathroom, completely updated, has dual sinks, a whirlpool tub and plenty of storage.

The lower level is a fantastic finished space boasting great storage, a crisp and spacious laundry area, a second powder bath and a large storage room with walk-out access to the back yard.

The backyard is one to be envied with a large deck off the main level and tons of fenced grassy space with nice plantings thoughfully grouped around the yard. Alley access completes the package.
