5225 Pooks Hill Rd APT 828S

Welcome to 828S a gorgeously renovated corner 2 bedroom, 1 bath apartment in the prestigious Promenade Towers. Being a corner unit, there is double the exposure from two walls of oversized windows, an extra large balcony, bathroom and primary bedroom closet. The kitchen has all new stainless appliances except the refrigerator which is in fine condition. During the renovation, the kitchen was opened to the living room with a large pass through and granite counter. Plenty of cabinets including a wine rack. The floors throughout are luxurious, carefree, vinyl wood-grain wide planks. The ceiling throughout the apartment has been remediated of asbestos and is smooth with lots of recessed lights. Beautiful grey railroad backsplash. The bathroom has a walk-in shower with both fixed and hand held shower heads. Large sink cabinet with plenty of storage and a lit mirror above the sink. Both bedrooms are spacious and offer great views. Wonderful views from all the windows. One garage space conveys. The building has so many amenities, it lives like a resort. The lobby is in the process of a complete renovation. The recently redecorated Arcade level has the state of the art fitness center with indoor pool and hot tub: locker rooms with showers and sauna. Also in the Arcade is Chef Tony's restaurant (a well known seafood/Italian eatery), a grocery store/deli, dry cleaners, travel agent, beauty salon, resident lounge, party and conference rooms. There is a large outdoor pool with adjacent grills. Tennis (lighted courts) and pickelball have their own building as you drive onto the property. Ping pong is played regularly, as are social activities such as "Breakfast at Wimbleton". There are too many activities to mention them all. A few are trivia night, open mike night, monthly first fun movies, lectures, vaccinations, vote in all elections in the party room (including Presidential). There is meditation, exercise class, book club, canasta, bridge, and mahjong. We have wine and cheese get togethers in the lobby, a rocking New Year's Eve party and various other celebrations. We have car charging stations, and a car washing area with a dynamite vacuum. Garage parking comes with the unit. It is easy to get to the Red Line Medical Center metro stop at NIH/Walter Reed. The bus comes to the door of the Promenade. Close to 495 and 270. Nearby Wildwood Shopping Center has Balduccis, CVS, Bethesda Bagels, Starbucks, a number of places to eat and several cute boutiques. Giant food is just across the street.
