4522 Garrison St NW

You’ll be immediately drawn to this gracious colonial home, featuring a bright white facade and impeccably landscaped yard. Only two families have ever owned this expanded, 1937 charmer. It is solid, clean, and has been extremely well-maintained. This house had several major updates in 2010, including a sizeable addition, new composite roof, an electrical panel upgrade, ALL new windows, and TWO new HVAC systems. Authentic hardwood floors are preserved in many rooms of the home. The inviting living room has built-ins, a door to the mudroom and a converted gas fireplace. The living room flows into a refined dining room, with convenient access to the deck. Kenmore stainless steel appliances, quartz counters, and soft-close cabinets are kitchen highlights. Heated flooring is in the kitchen and family room areas. The versatile family room could easily be converted to a main floor bedroom. French doors provide easy access to the backyard. There is also a laundry closet and full bathroom with a custom-tiled walk-in shower and a heated floor. Three bedrooms are on the second level, one with heated wood flooring. The primary bedroom has two closets, including a walk-in, plus a custom, en suite bathroom with heated flooring. A third full bathroom has a tub. A deep linen closet is one of several unique storage areas in the home. The top floor has a special attic/fourth bedroom. Imagine family movie nights in the downstairs rec room! It comes with a wet bar. The handy folks will find good use for the separate work/storage room. A workbench and two storage cabinets convey, along with the rec room TV and family room TV. There’s a walkout basement, with a new, stone retaining wall along the exterior stairwell leading up to the fully fenced backyard. A small pond adorns the yard, and the large, natural fieldstone patio is low maintenance. Everyone will love spending time on the oversized wooden deck! It wraps around the house ending at the mudroom entrance. This home is in the desirable AU Park Community. It’s moments away from Fort Bayard Park, schools, and downtown Chevy Chase with its fabulous shops, restaurants and convenience to the Friendship Heights Metro station. Adorable as-is or you can put your own touches on this very special home
