6516 Democracy Blvd, Bethesda, MD 20817
What This House Offers
Imagine coming home to this beautifully updated 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath single-family home, tucked into a sought-after neighborhood within the Walter Johnson school district. From the moment you walk in, there's a warmth to the space that makes it easy to picture your life here. Rich hardwood floors flow through the main living areas, creating a bright, inviting feel throughout. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with stainless steel appliances (all upgraded within the last three years), so it's ready for everything from quick weeknight dinners to weekend gatherings. Retreat to the master bath, where a Jacuzzi tub and spacious standing shower offer a quiet, spa-like escape at the end of the day. Downstairs, the fully renovated basement gives you even more room to spread out, with a full bathroom, an additional room with outdoor access (perfect as a guest room, office, or gym), a cozy library nook for curling up with a book, and plush imported Belgian carpet underfoot. Outside, a private backyard oasis awaits: a patio with a full outdoor kitchen, TV, refrigerator, bike rack, and basketball court, ideal for entertaining friends or simply relaxing under the stars. A newly rebuilt driveway completes the picture. Furniture can convey, making the move-in process even easier. A two-year lease term is preferred. This is more than a place to live, it's a home ready to welcome you in.
