Tucked away on a serene, tree-lined street, it would be hard to conceive that 5620 Madison Street is only minutes away from urban downtown Bethesda. With impressive curb appeal radiating from the contrasting trim framing its modern two-story facade, this is a home that offers space and comfort coupled together by Douglas Construction Group’s outstanding quality and craftsmanship. Walking through the solid, custom front door, ten-foot ceilings, and wide-plank white oak floors set the scene for a flexible floorplan equally suitable for large-scale entertaining as it is for comfortable and intimate living. Entering through pocket doors, a thoughtful home office provides a dedicated environment perfectly suited for today’s increasingly popular work-from-home lifestyle. A contemporary powder room with a floating vanity is adjacent to a superbly placed main-level bedroom suite, permitting multigenerational living while managing to be discreetly tucked away. A rear window wall and chic gas fireplace help introduce the spacious living area, which is immediately adjacent to an ethereal dining area with direct deck access via double-paned sliding doors. The modern gourmet kitchen is a showstopper, with custom Cabico cabinetry reaching the full ten-foot ceiling height, contrasting Dekton countertops, twin dishwashers, and a full suite of chef’s stainless steel appliances. A generous mudroom with built-in cubbies, attached garage, solid core eight-foot doors, and motorized blinds complete the main level. At the top of the light-filled staircase lies a bright and airy upper-level sitting area — the perfect quiet place to curl up and enjoy a good novel. The well-designed owner’s suite is centered around an entrance vestibule, thus creating an oasis of a sleeping area with total privacy all around. Twin walk-in closets both feature custom built-ins and provide ample storage space for any fashion guru. The owner’s bath is yet another showstopper, with lighted mirrors, dual vanities, oversized shower, and radiant heated floors for a warm start to those cold winter mornings. The three secondary bedrooms on the upper level are generously proportioned, flooded with natural light, and served by two modern, tiled baths. The walkout lower level features a large recreation room served by a wet bar — an entertainer’s dream. The sixth bedroom has its own walk-in closet and ensuite bath, creating ideal accommodations for an au-pair or in-laws. Also found on the lower level are a fully-equipped exercise room, workshop, and professional home theater with built-in surround sound and subwoofer. Outside, the fully-fenced rear yard is shaded under a lush tree canopy and features a stunning maintenance-free deck for hosting the finest outdoor gatherings. Smart home features abound throughout, such as the sophisticated ADT security system, heated bidet toilet seats, a Samsung Frame TV, CAT 6 wiring throughout, energy-efficient windows/HVAC, and the home is pre-wired for car charging and solar panels. The new construction, desirable lot, optimal location, and quality finishes throughout put 5620 Madison Street in a class of its own.
