PRICE IMPROVEMENT. 7607 Hemlock Street | Bethesda, MD 20817 Some homes are built to impress. This one was built to live in "” and the difference shows in every detail. Set on a quiet street in Oakwood Knolls, one of Bethesda's most coveted neighborhoods, 7607 Hemlock is a custom-crafted residence where thoughtful design meets the rhythms of real family life. Highly ranked Walt Whitman High School and Pyle Middle School are an easy walk away; Burning Tree Elementary is a two-minute drive. For families who've made the school district a priority, the location alone is the story. The home's flagstone porch and striking architecture announce what's inside: over 6,000 square feet of light-filled, intelligently designed living space. The main level opens with a gracious center hall foyer leading to soaring ceilings, rich oak floors, and a seamless flow between formal and informal spaces "” crown and wainscoting moldings, coffered and tray ceilings, and high-end hardware throughout. The formal living and dining rooms give way to a fully appointed entertainer's bar with beverage center, sized for the kind of hosting that doesn't require apology. At the heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen was designed for people who actually cook. A massive center island anchors the space, flanked by quartz countertops, a large walk-in pantry, and professional-grade Thermador appliances "” a six-burner gas range with built-in griddle, double wall ovens, and an oversized side-by-side refrigerator. Discreet under-cabinet electrical outlets keep the counters clean. The adjacent family room, with its wall of windows, custom cabinetry, and gas fireplace framed for a large-screen TV, is where the day ends. When the weather cooperates "” and even when it doesn't "” a full-width NanaWall opens the kitchen directly onto a large screened-in porch, collapsing the boundary between inside and out. The backyard has been fully re-graded and transformed: a new stone patio, lush landscaping, and a perimeter of Chindo viburnums sourced from a North Carolina family nursery. Already deeply rooted, these pet-safe, low-maintenance evergreens will reach approximately 16 feet, delivering a private canopy without encroaching on the yard itself. A dedicated main-level study, powder room, and a mudroom with built-in cubbies round out a floor plan that anticipates how families actually move through a day. Upstairs, the primary suite is a proper retreat: private foyer entry, tray ceilings, two large walk-in closets with custom built-ins, and a spa bath with an oversized shower and dual vanities with custom mirrors and sconces. Three additional bedrooms "” each generously sized "” share two full baths, while a separate upper-level living space serves naturally as a study zone, playroom, or secondary family room. A spacious laundry room with extensive cabinetry and large-capacity machines is where it should be: on the bedroom level. The fully finished lower level adds meaningful square footage without feeling like an afterthought. A recreation room with wet bar, a private theater room, a rubber-floored exercise room, and a bedroom suite with full bath and walk-in closet together create a floor that functions as a destination, not just overflow space. The two-car garage has been fitted with overhead storage racks "” a small detail that matters when you're actually using it. Not to mention, a whole house generator! Oakwood Knolls puts downtown Bethesda, Chevy Chase, and Tysons Corner within easy reach, with straightforward access to DC and three major airports. For a family ready to stop compromising between location, schools, and the home itself "” it's hard to imagine doing better than this.
