3510 MORRISON STREET NW, WASHINGTON, DC 20015

$1,385,000

Own a Piece of History in Chevy Chase DC! Arguably one of the most storied homes in the neighborhood, this beautifully preserved 1925 Sears ''Maywood'' bungalow marries architectural authenticity with effortless creative soul. Authenticated through original permit records naming R.C. Hunter & Bro. as architect and Columbia Realty & Construction… Read More Co. as builder, the home retains every hallmark of the Maywood design - graceful low rooflines, grouped windows that flood the interiors with natural light, and elegant arched side-porch openings that whisper of a bygone era. Beyond its architectural pedigree lies a remarkable cultural legacy. For decades, the home was the residence of a beloved national broadcaster and storyteller whose salon-style gatherings drew Washington's creative and intellectual set. Jazz legend Dave Brubeck is said to have played here on several memorable evenings - adding to the property's lore as a place where conversation, music, and creativity have always thrived. Inside, the home radiates warmth and craftsmanship. Original wood floors, a striking stone fireplace, and sun-splashed rooms create a feeling that's both timeless and alive. The main level offers a welcoming living room anchored by that grand hearth, a sunroom bathed in sunlight (perfect as an art studio or reading lounge), a light-filled kitchen with garden views, a spacious dining room, and a stylish half bath. Upstairs, three generous bedrooms and a full bath are complemented by an en suite second half bath adjacent to a shower sized large closet for potential conversion to a second full bath. Set proudly on a corner lot, this property enjoys outdoor spaces on both sides. To the right, a wide, open yard framed by mature landscaping offers room for play, gardening, or entertaining. To the left, a lush hedge encloses a more intimate retreat with a detached garage that doubles as a perfect flex space - think outdoor dining pavilion, home gym, or creative workspace. Every window in the house frames greenery, giving the feeling of living in a private garden, almost like a storybook village scene from Nantucket or the English countryside. The lower level offers exceptional potential and great storage: with existing plumbing, laundry, it's ready to evolve into additional living space, a family room, guest suite, or creative studio with its own bath. And yet, the location couldn't be more connected. Stroll to Lafayette Elementary, the Broad Branch Market and weekend farmers market, neighborhood parks, and beloved local fixtures along Connecticut Avenue like Politics and Prose, Call Your Mother, and Little Red Fox. With tree-lined streets, a strong sense of community, and easy access to downtown, 3510 Morrison Street NW offers the rare combination of history, artistry, and everyday livability. A home that invites you in and makes you want to stay awhile! Read Less
