Property Description
Step through the front door of 4721 River Road and you feel it right away: the light on fresh walls, newly refinished hardwood underfoot, and a house that is ready for its next chapter. This classic 1964 brick colonial has been lovingly refreshed from top to bottom. It has new paint throughout, gleaming new quartz countertops, a brand-new range and oven, a modern statement chandelier in the dining room, and a brand-new roof installed in 2026. The big worries are already handled, so all that's left is moving in and making it yours.
Then walk out back… and prepare to fall in love.
The rear yard is the soul of this home. It's a private, tree-lined retreat that feels a world away from the city, even though the city is just down the road. Picture slow Saturday mornings with coffee on the deck, summer dinners on the patio as the light fades through the trees, and evenings in the enclosed porch listening to the rain. With multiple balconies, extensive hardscape, a partially fenced yard and a garden shed, this is a backyard people dream about and rarely find this close to DC.
Inside, the home is graceful and generous across three finished levels with more than 3,200 square feet. Crown moldings, wainscoting, custom built-ins and a fireplace with a classic mantel give it warmth and character. The formal dining room is made for holidays and long conversations. A bay window and French doors pull the outdoors in. With six bedrooms, including one on the entry level, there's room for everyone: guests who stay a while, a quiet home office, a studio, or the in-law suite you've been hoping for. The primary bath has a soaking tub where the day melts away.
The walkout lower level adds remarkable flexibility, with a second kitchen, a workshop, and direct access to the attached two-car garage. Add a driveway that holds six more cars, and you have parking for eight. That's almost unheard of inside the Beltway.
And then there's the location. Here, life gets easier. Friendship Heights Metro, Whole Foods and great shopping are less than a mile away. Downtown Bethesda's restaurants, theaters and Saturday energy are just minutes up the road. Lace up your sneakers for the Capital Crescent Trail and Little Falls Trail, stroll to Kenwood and Westbard for errands, and reach Georgetown, downtown DC, NIH and Walter Reed in an easy drive. You get the peace of a treasured Bethesda neighborhood with the whole region at your doorstep.
The mechanicals have been well cared for too, with a 2021 furnace and A/C, a 2023 gas water heater and professional duct cleaning.
This is the kind of home you don't just buy. You settle into it, grow into it, and never want to leave. Come see it for yourself at the Open House on Saturday, November 14, from 2–4 PM.
