September delivery. A rare opportunity for new construction in the highly sought-after Whitman High School cluster, this exceptional residence by CM Conlan Construction, one of the area's most respected custom builders, offers sophisticated design, outstanding craftsmanship and an unusually compelling value within one of Bethesda's most desirable school districts. Designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining, the home pairs timeless architectural details with a fresh, highly functional floor plan. The main level opens with a gracious entry foyer and flows into an expansive, light-filled kitchen and great room-the true heart of the home. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with custom ceiling-height Lewistown cabinetry, quartz or granite countertops, an oversized center island, Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, designer pendant lighting, a generous walk-in pantry and a separate butler's pantry with beverage refrigerator and sink. The adjoining great room features a beamed or coffered ceiling, gas fireplace with custom surround and expansive double sliding doors opening to the flagstone patio, creating an easy connection between indoor and outdoor living. A generously proportioned dining room is designed to comfortably accommodate large gatherings, while a private office or den at the front of the home provides an ideal work-from-home setting. Thoughtfully designed utility spaces are equally impressive. The custom mudroom includes built-in cubbies, bench seating and extensive storage and connects directly to the oversized one-car garage, which incorporates additional workspace and natural light. A discreetly positioned powder room completes the main level. Upstairs, the private primary suite offers a serene retreat with a spacious bedroom and sitting area, two large walk-in closets and a beautifully finished bath with custom cabinetry, dual vanity, quartz or granite countertops, soaking tub, oversized frameless glass shower and private water closet. Three additional bedrooms each enjoy their own ensuite bath and generous closet space, creating exceptional privacy and flexibility for family and guests. A dedicated second-floor laundry room adds everyday convenience. The fully finished lower level substantially extends the home's living space, with a large recreation room centered around a second gas fireplace, an optional bar area, a fifth bedroom with oversized window, full bath, exercise room, finished storage and utility space. Throughout the home, wide-plank French white oak flooring, custom millwork, wainscoting, crown molding, transoms, recessed lighting and carefully considered architectural details reflect CM Conlan's commitment to craftsmanship. Exterior finishes include HardiePlank siding, Pennsylvania flagstone walkways, front porch and patio, architectural shingles and professionally designed landscaping. Additional features include Andersen windows, two-zone HVAC, 400-amp electrical service, Cat 6 wiring, high-efficiency systems, upgraded insulation, whole-house energy sealing and a builder warranty.
