Property description
Updated & charming Cottage nestled on a quiet neighborhood circle in the heart of the picturesque and convenient town of Glen Echo. Serenely sited in the ideal location for the nature lover - close to the hiking, biking and walking trails of the C&O Canal, Glen Echo Park, Cabin John, and kayaking on the Potomac River. This quintessential three bedroom two full bathroom home features light-filled rooms with oversized windows, including two Bay windows, skylights, hardwood floors, and recessed lighting. Thoughtfully updated to include a new HVAC system, appliances, and finishes throughout the house. Excellent curb appeal with a quaint white picket fence and a lush, landscaped front yard with mature bushes, flowering shrubbery, a cherry blossom tree and a charming brick walkway. The bright, open-concept living / dining room is centered around a handsome stone fireplace and features a plethora of windows. It seamlessly flows into the immaculate kitchen, which boasts marble countertops and all-new appliances and overlooks a cozy family room / sunroom. The fenced-in property enjoys a wonderful rear brick patio with a new, large shed and surrounded by flower beds - perfect for entertaining, gardening, and dining al fresco. Upstairs, there are three sunny bedrooms, including the owner’s suite with built-ins, a sizable walk-in closet, and a full bath. 12 Wellesley Circle is just a short stroll to the natural beauty of the Potomac River, as well as the arts and culture of Glen Echo Park, restaurants, shops, and the Potomac Farm Market. Conveniently located near downtown Bethesda, Friendship Heights, NW D.C., I-495, Clara Barton Parkway and major commuting routes, this property is a supreme location close to everything while providing a secluded retreat in the Whitman School Cluster.
