About This Home
A rare jewel in the heart of Chevy Chase Village, 127 Hesketh Street is a meticulously preserved 1928 Spanish Mission home. On one of the neighborhood's most beloved streets, this 2,500-square-foot residence delivers architectural romance at every turn — from the hand-laid terra cotta tile roof and arched entry portal to the extraordinary antique Gothic lancet stained glass window set into the facade. There is a charming garden that backs up onto the Chevy Chase Club golf course woods, providing amazing privacy. Inside, the gracious living room anchors the home with a wood-burning fireplace framed by arched columns. A glass sunporch fills with natural light, and the formal dining room speaks to the home's original Spanish style. A thoughtfully designed rear addition expands the living space seamlessly, offering a combined kitchen and family room plus a full bath that opens to a small heated pool and walled garden — the side garden features a wrought iron gate and mature azaleas, other perennials which create a peaceful setting, entirely removed from hectic life. Upstairs, three bedrooms, two full baths, plus a large den with lots of built ins, and an exceptionally large wooden deck off the master complete the upper level. The partially finished basement adds a fourth bath and flexible space for whatever you need most fourth bedroom or family playroom. Signature trees and established perennials frame the 6,000-square-foot lot through every season. The pool is small, set under a pretty pergula and inside a hardscape patio. The Chevy Chase club Golf course is behind the trees at back of garden, more visible in winter when leaves are down. The location feels very private. Situated in an historic 1920s streetscape of lovely homes, this part of Hesketh is close to Wisconsin Avenue making it have a high walkability score to Starbucks, Friendship Heights Metro, doctors offices and shopping. Fabulous location with all the benefits of Chevy Chase Village.
