Property Description

Behind its storybook Craftsman cottage façade, 6512 Ridge Drive unfolds into an expansive, light-filled home offering more than 4,000 square feet across four beautifully finished levels. Set on a quiet dead-end street in Bethesda's coveted Brookmont neighborhood, this 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath residence combines timeless character, thoughtful updates, and an exceptional connection to the outdoors.

A welcoming foyer opens to the gracious living room, where a striking stone wood-burning fireplace creates a warm focal point. Hardwood floors continue into the formal dining room and through to the heart of the home: a beautifully remodeled kitchen and family room with a gas fireplace, walls of windows, and peaceful sunset views. The kitchen features custom cabinetry, a generous island with built-in storage, stylish backsplash, premium appliances including a six-burner BlueStar Platinum gas range with an oversized oven, and a breakfast nook with built-in seating. The open flow of the main level makes it ideal for both intimate gatherings and large-scale entertaining.

The kitchen opens directly to an extraordinary outdoor retreat. Measuring approximately 25 by 40 feet, the one-of-a-kind Ipe deck was constructed on commercial-grade steel and feels suspended among the trees. When the leaves fall, there are sweeping views of the Virginia Palisades and the C&O Canal. With a covered dining area, multiple seating spaces, a hot tub, and a natural gas stainless grill, the deck offers an exceptional outdoor living experience. Below, a covered patio extends the indoor-outdoor living space, while established gardens in the front attract butterflies and add seasonal color.

Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a private getaway, complete with a renovated en suite bath, walk-in closets, and a balcony overlooking the C&O Canal. The additional bedrooms are generously sized, and all of the home's bathrooms have been recently remodeled. The top floor provides versatile space for an additional bedroom, office, playroom, art studio, or lounge.

Filled with natural light, the lower level offers a spacious media and recreation area with room for movie nights, a home gym, or an additional living room. A private bedroom with its own full bath and separate entrance creates an ideal arrangement for guests, an au pair, or multigenerational living. Two laundry areas, one upstairs and one on the lower level, along with two storage sheds, add everyday convenience.

Brookmont offers a distinctive balance of neighborhood charm, natural beauty, and accessibility to DC, which is only half a mile away. Two neighborhood entrances connect directly to the C&O Canal and its miles of walking and biking paths. The Capital Crescent Trail intersects with the top of the neighborhood, and additional internal trails flow from a local arboretum. The village green, a community space that hosts annual events and Brookmont's own year-round farmers market, is just one block away, and the neighborhood boasts its own playground, basketball court, tennis court and tree swings. Safeway, Wagshal's, CVS, Praline Bakery and other everyday conveniences are all close by. The home is also located within the highly rated Walt Whitman High School cluster. With its unexpected scale, exceptional outdoor living, and rare connection to both nature and the city, 6512 Ridge Drive offers a Brookmont lifestyle unlike any other.
