About This Home

Welcome to 5100 Dorset, a mid-century modern co-op located in Chevy Chase, MD. The spacious layout in unit #304 provides exceptional setting for everyday living and entertaining, while the private balcony with sunset views offers the perfect perch to unwind. Flooded with natural sunlight from multiple exposures, the space feels welcoming, bright and airy. At the heart of the home, the kitchen is both striking and functional, updated to perfection in 2020. It features sleek, Caesar-stone countertops, an island ideal for gathering and entertaining, a handsome “bricked” backsplash, an induction stove, convection microwave, hot water on-demand, and painted wood cabinetry. Our favorite: the appliance garage (x 2!)- simply the best place to stash breakfast bowls or the coffee maker when unexpected guests pop by. The 2020 home renovation includes new hardwood floors throughout, new convectors (heating & cooling units) and an enlarged hallway which opens things up in surprising ways. There are three generously sized bedrooms. The primary bedroom has its own ensuite bath with a shower, along with two generous closets. The second bedroom sits closely nearby, also with a sizable closet and west-facing views. A second hall bath comes with a tub. The third bedroom currently functions as an office, replete with a translucent pocket door, bringing light into the expanded hallway. Plentiful in-unit storage is complemented by an additional 8x8 storage space. This practical retreat also includes two parking spaces—one garage and one surface—adding convenience to an already compelling package. Additional building amenities include EV charging stations, bike storage room, upgraded laundry facility, back up generator, solar panels (to be installed), a robust recycling and composting program and a newly renovated lobby. There’s also a grill and picnic area where residents gather on occasion for community get-togethers and Friday happy hours. Ideally located just moments from the shops, dining, and everyday conveniences of downtown Bethesda, and steps from scenic trails and lush green spaces that run throughout the county and into DC, this home strikes the perfect balance between accessibility and escape. Whether you’re downsizing or new to the area and eager to explore, this is a truly exceptional opportunity to own a turnkey 3-bedroom/2-bath apartment in one of the region’s most desirable communities. The Capital Crescent Trail borders Kenwood House (in fact, unit #304 overlooks the trail). Whole Foods is two blocks away, the Bethesda Pool about three blocks away, and downtown Bethesda is a 15-minute walk or 5-minute drive. Did we mention the cherry blossom views in the spring? Welcome Home! Co-op fee includes real estate taxes, all utilities including heat and air conditioning, bike storage, covered parking, guest parking and an a private storage space. You don't pay transfer & recordation taxes when you buy or sell at Kenwood House Co-op. For a 3D tour: bit.ly/4fijVpC
