Welcome to 8815 Connecticut Avenue, a truly distinctive four-bedroom, three-bath residence offering an extraordinary combination of architectural character, expansive living spaces, and beautifully landscaped grounds in the heart of Chevy Chase. Situated on approximately 0.49 acres, this unique property offers 3,550 square feet of residential living space, a private swimming pool, koi pond, and an additional lower-level veterinary facility, creating a rare opportunity for homeowners seeking a residence unlike any other.
A welcoming brick exterior and expansive driveway introduce a home filled with character and unexpected architectural details. Inside, the spectacular great room immediately captures attention with its soaring ceilings, dramatic arched windows, hardwood floors, and abundant natural light. Generously proportioned living and dining areas offer inviting spaces for everyday enjoyment and entertaining, complemented by a fireplace, exposed brick accents, and an airy, open atmosphere. A separate media room with rich wood detailing provides a comfortable retreat for movie nights or relaxation.
The home's distinctive kitchen features warm wood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and an adjoining light-filled space overlooking the surrounding greenery. One of the property's most memorable features is its stunning solarium, where expansive glass walls, skylights, and lush indoor plantings create a remarkable connection between the interior living spaces and the outdoors. This exceptional space offers a peaceful setting for relaxation, entertaining, or enjoying the surrounding landscape throughout the seasons.
The residence includes four bedrooms and three full bathrooms, highlighted by a spacious primary suite with vaulted ceilings, distinctive architectural detailing, and an en-suite bathroom featuring a soaking tub and separate glass-enclosed shower. Additional bedrooms offer comfortable accommodations, including a charming bedroom with exposed ceiling beams and generous natural light.
Outside, the property transforms into a private garden retreat. Mature trees, lush plantings, winding pathways, and thoughtfully landscaped grounds create a sense of seclusion rarely found so close to the conveniences of the city. A private swimming pool, picturesque koi pond, and multiple patio and outdoor gathering areas provide an exceptional setting for entertaining, recreation, or quiet enjoyment. The nearly half-acre lot offers ample space to enjoy the outdoors, while the two-car attached garage and substantial driveway provide convenient off-street parking.
Adding to the property's remarkable versatility is an approximately 2,350-square-foot lower-level veterinary clinic that has served the surrounding community for more than 50 years. The existing facility includes a reception area, examination rooms, surgical and treatment space, offices, kennels, and supporting infrastructure. This established configuration offers a compelling opportunity for a veterinary professional seeking to combine homeownership with an existing practice location. The lower level also presents potential for alternative uses or future reconfiguration, subject to applicable zoning requirements and necessary approvals. The existing veterinary business and certain equipment may be available for acquisition separately from the real estate.
Conveniently located along Connecticut Avenue in the desirable Chevy Chase community, the property offers easy access to downtown Bethesda, Chevy Chase Lake, neighborhood parks, shopping, dining, and major commuter routes connecting to Washington, D.C., and the greater metropolitan area.
With its dramatic architectural features, exceptional indoor and outdoor living spaces, nearly half-acre setting, and unique combination of residential and professional functionality, 8815 Connecticut Avenue presents a rare opportunity to own a truly one-of-a-kind property in one of Montgomery County's most desirable locations.
