Adjacent to Caroline Freeland Urban Park and two blocks to the Connie Morella (Bethesda) Library. Everything is at your doorstep!

Upper 4th BR could possibly be created by converting Laundry room to a Bedroom. Use the space from the second closet in MBR to make a closet for this bedroom. Relocate the entrance of 3rd FB to the hallway or move the door to the 3 BR in a few feet so it adjoins 3rd BR wall. Laundry room could go underneath the 1st floor half bath in the large mudroom near garage. The new bedroom could be approximately 8'7" x 11" plus closet. The original floor plans are available to assess and review with your contractor or home inspector.
