Anyone for a 50s-style home near RCP in Chevy Chase?

| Love the overall lines and the architectural details, but way too much stacked stone on the interior for me. |

| It's a little wierd in person - the ceilings are quite low. And the street's kind of a pain - narrow and hilly but they still allow parking on both sides of the street, so I saw several cars having to back up so another could pass. That said, the pool and the view were awesome. |

I live in this area (but on the DC side) and I never thought I'd buy a MCM. OMG we love it. Awesome for parties,entertaining and kids. I can't imagine ever living in a colonial again.
But I hate the exterior of MCM homes! From the street they look ugly but inside is like Dr. Who's Tardis. Very large. |

| Love the house. . . really love the location. If I had $1 million for a home, I would definitely consider it. |

| OP here, really appreciate all the feedback. We love it but have been worried about what might happen if we needed to resell it in a few years. Can live with a crowded street, and likely even low ceilings. Had not thought of usurping the family room as a bedroom--that might just make it work for us with our 3 kids. So...unless someone snaps it up ahead of the weekend, we're gonna head out! Any thoughts on the commute downtown? Western then CT? |

| It's a very busy street. Lots of people use it as a cut through and go zooming up an down it. |

For the commute downtown, why not just take Beach Drive, which is right behind the house?

Frankly, this house is kind of a steal!
It is really special. I would buy it in a second if I had the $. Hope you get it, OP! |

Love it love it love it! I wish there were more homes like this in our area, and a little cheaper (for my budget).
Good luck op! |

OP here.
Thanks to all! Will report back. Am going to go home via Beach Drive (sounds interesting!) and time the commute, spy on the street.

Ah, it's gone already.
I should have gotten busy writing an offer rather than discussing it on DCUM, LOL. Very much appreciate all the feedback, will JUMP on the next MCM near RCP if a nice one comes up... |
