Potential abounds in this beautifully sited Cape Cod home on a corner lot in Chevy Chase Village. This gracious family home has seen countless garden parties, family holidays, sleepovers, and quite a few late nights of quiet reading while the rain lightly dances on the roof. A perfect opportunity for home design enthusiasts; those with great ideas will take advantage of the ideal location, the space, the light, and perhaps the supreme satisfaction of 'zigging' while others 'zag.' 100 E Lenox delivers all the amenities of a Chevy Chase Village lifestyle while beckoning today's buyers to creatively envision its next glowing chapter.
Surrounded by brick and stone hardscapes, deep garden beds, and a fenced yard, this 5BR/5BA home sprawls over 3,950 +/- square feet (estimate). The double-door entry leads to a gracious foyer wrapped in custom millwork (rumored to be installed from a previous residence of Andrew Mellon). A rare on-grade approach accommodates those with mobility concerns or multi-generational needs. Once inside, a living room with custom millwork, fireplace, and room for a grand piano flows seamlessly from indoor to out. The sizable rear patio with stone knee walls, flowering plantings, and retractable awning provides additional gathering space. The eat-in kitchen connects to the formal dining room, creating excellent flow for everyday living and entertaining. Two main floor bedrooms, with two full baths, accommodates guests or work-from-home needs. Coming home is a breeze with the attached garage and a covered side porch entrance.
The massive second floor is flooded with natural light and features the owner's suite, complete with a walk-in closet, a private sitting room with skylights, and an en suite bathroom. There is an additional bedroom and full bathroom, as well as attic spaces for ample storage. The lower level is ideal for guests, offering a fifth bedroom, full bathroom, and laundry and storage facilities. 100 E Lenox Street offers elegance and small-town charm, and an opportunity to make this one your own.
The Village's tree-lined streets, brick sidewalks, open parks, and centrally located Village Hall complement the home's convenience to Chevy Chase Club, the shops and restaurants along Connecticut Avenue, and the shops on Brookville Road including the Brookville Market, Olympia Cafe, and Chevy Chase Barber Shop. With its easy access to public transportation, schools, and parks, 100 E Lenox is ready for a new owner to create a perfect home that offers a dose of small-town charm amid the hustle and bustle of the DC metro area.
