Property Description
Welcome to 6309 Kenhowe Drive, a beautifully maintained and thoughtfully updated brick Colonial offering timeless character, with hardwood floors throughout all levels, exceptional outdoor space, and abundant natural light. Set in a coveted location within walking distance of Bannockburn Elementary School, this inviting home features a sunny southwest exposure, a large side yard, and beautifully landscaped grounds. A center hall foyer welcomes you inside, where fresh paint, crown molding, and recessed lighting enhance the main level. The traditional floor plan includes a spacious living room with a wood-burning fireplace currently featuring an electric insert, a formal dining room, a large kitchen with stainless steel appliances, a study, and a powder room. The spectacular gourmet kitchen was remodeled in 2011 and features extensive custom cabinetry and built-ins by Hagerstown Cabinets, honed black granite countertops, a Sub-Zero Refrigerator, a Wolf range with Viking exhaust, Thermador double ovens, a Miele Dishwasher, and a GE Monogram Microwave. An inviting eat-in area features an integrated bench flanked by built-ins all around, plus a sliding glass door opening to the rear patio. The kitchen also opens seamlessly to the adjoining living room/study, creating an ideal layout for everyday living and entertaining. One of the home's most special spaces is the sunroom addition, originally a screened porch and enclosed by the current owners. Filled with southern light and overlooking the expansive side yard, it offers French doors leading to the backyard. It provides a wonderful connection between the interior and the home's exceptional outdoor spaces. Upstairs are four generously sized bedrooms, all with closets that feature built-in shelving and rails plus lighting, two full bathrooms, one of which features a jacuzzi bathtub, and a linen closet. An adjacent laundry chute to the basement adds convenience. The lower level adds tremendous flexibility with two large finished rooms; one could serve as a guest room (it includes two closets), while the other features an additional wood-burning fireplace and built-in shelving with a niche (TV included). Continue through the lower level to find a full bathroom, storage room, and a large utility/laundry room with a Miele washer and dryer. Interior access to the attached one-car garage provides additional convenience. The outdoor setting is truly exceptional. Extensive hardscaping, stone retaining walls, terraced landscaping, and a French drain were added as part of significant exterior improvements. The expansive patioreportedly constructed with Tennessee pink marbleprovides a beautiful setting for outdoor entertaining and overlooks the large, partially fenced grassy side yard, a rare and versatile space for play and relaxation. Notable updates include a remodeled kitchen and basement bathroom, new gutters and downspouts (2019), repaired and lined chimney flues (2020), new roof and attic insulation (2020), new attic fan (2024), and new air conditioning (2025). Ideally located near the Ride On 29 bus with service to Bethesda and Friendship Heights, this home also offers the opportunity to acquire a membership share in the nearby Merrimack Pool (easy walking distance) - please inquire for more information about how this works. With its timeless Colonial architecture, extensive improvements, exceptional natural light, and rare outdoor spaces, 6309 Kenhowe Drive is a special opportunity in a highly desirable Bethesda location.
