Property details

About 5309 Falmouth Rd

Set in the heart of Westmoreland Hills, this refined residence offers five spacious bedrooms and three and a half newly renovated bathrooms in a thoughtfully designed space. The professionally landscaped lot offers privacy, beauty, and functionality -- ideal for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. Step into the foyer to shake off the cold and rest yourself next to the cozy fireplace and large bay window. Or plan summer soirées where guests seamlessly move from the living room, to the formal dining room, out to the patio. Just off the dining room, a new flagstone patio invites outdoor gatherings, while the serene, terraced backyard (complete with a built-in outdoor fireplace), sets the stage for intimate al fresco dining or raucous barbecues. The functional kitchen serves as the heart of the home with stainless steel appliances and ample counter space. Pull up a barstool at the peninsula while reading the paper, chopping vegetables, or helping with homework. Down a few steps is the den of your dreams. With warm paneling, built-ins, and an oversized bay window, this is by far the owner's favorite retreat. Access to the oversized garage, a deep coat closet, and updated powder room to provide the ultimate convenience and efficiency for everyday life. But wait -- there's more! If overnight guests or live-in au pair need room to spread out, the newly renovated lower-level offers another brand new family room, bedroom with egress, and another full ensuite bath. The kitchenette, laundry, and additional storage make this space more than a retreat - it’s like its own separate living space. The upper bedroom levels features four additional bedrooms including a primary suite with custom walk-in closet, updated dual vanity bathroom, and “wet room” shower with integrated freestanding tub. The walk-up attic level is poised for future finishing or easily accessible storage. All systems have been recently upgraded including windows (2023), HVAC (circa 2017), second HVAC (2024), new water heater, roof (circa 2017), and insulation in attic voids surrounding the primary suite. Newly installed flooring in kitchen and lower level, freshly refinished hardwoods throughout, renovated baths, and updated fixtures and finishes make this property a turn-key home. Westmoreland Hills is known for its classic Colonial-style homes set along winding, tree-lined streets. The neighborhood borders the Capital Crescent Trail and Westmoreland Hills Park, both are just steps from the front door. Quick access to Friendship Heights, downtown Bethesda, and the vibrant shops and restaurants that define the area. Residents enjoy an active neighborhood association, beloved annual traditions, and a community feel that’s rare to find. Served by Westbrook Elementary, Westland Middle School, and Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School, 5309 Falmouth Road is one for the ages.
