Bethesda, MD
This handsome home is a distinctively refined collage of layered masses with a hint of Mediterranean grace. Firmly sited above the street, the stone and stucco building features a cobble stone entry court hardscape and magnificently rich landscape to overshadow a deceptively narrow lot. The combination of deep roof eaves, tall narrow window openings inset among randomly coursed natural fieldstone and a second-floor band of stucco create an artful composition. From the front entry court, an enclosed stair tower divides a two-car garage from the main body of the house, and a carved limestone vaulted entry portal. The elliptical vault-form entry portal and doors are echoed within by a similarly vaulted foyer passage to the expansive family room, kitchen and breakfast areas. Each of these open-plan spaces continue to the rear yard through floor-to-ceiling picture windows and patio doors. The rear yard patios, screened porch, terraced pool deck, outdoor fireplace and free-standing wet bar pavilion compliment this home with a relaxing outdoor retreat.
