About This Home
Welcome to 6431 Forest Road in the Town of Cheverly, MD 20785—an updated 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath detached home with over 2,500 finished square feet all above grade on a quarter-acre lot. Set on a quiet, tree-lined street in Cheverly Gardens, this classic colonial gives you the space of a larger home with the convenience of being minutes to the Cheverly Metro (Orange Line), Route 50, the BW Parkway, and the DC line. Inside, the traditional floor plan features a generous living room, separate dining room with crown molding, and a comfortable family room off the eat-in kitchen, anchored by a brick fireplace. The kitchen opens to a balcony and rear patio, creating easy indoor-outdoor flow for everyday living and entertaining. Upstairs you’ll find four light-filled bedrooms, including an expansive king-sized corner retreat with walk-in closet and en-suite bath with soaking tub. Instead of a dark basement, every square foot of living space here is above grade—bright, usable, and flexible. Need a home office, studio, workout area, or media space? You’ll have options. The oversized two-car garage, currently set up as a home gym with additional storage, plus the wide driveway provide ample parking and utility. Out back, a large, fenced yard with central patio is ideal for gardening, outdoor dining, or pets, with room to add raised beds or a play structure if you choose. Directly nearby, the Cheverly Community Center offers playgrounds, ball fields, bike paths, a jogging track, and a popular weekend farmers market—one of the many reasons people love living in Cheverly. If you’ve been looking for more space, a true yard, and an easy Metro commute without sacrificing access to Washington, DC, this Cheverly colonial delivers.
