Beautiful home with no personality. I’m not sure if it’s the devote or overall style. It has no personality.

Yes. I think so. It is very close to BHES. That’s a very good school. It’s a good neighborhood. Green tree is busy through that stretch and this house is bigger than the others on that stretch of green tree. It is a great location though so if you need a bigger property in the Whitman district it’s a good option.

Also it’s not really a rehab place. It’s a long term shelter for women and children that is set up like garden apartments, and it is significantly set back from the road up a hill and behind trees. A lot of people in the neighborhood don’t even know it’s there.


One of those kids, a Whitman student who lived there, killed someone at the Target on Wisconsin Ave a couple of years ago.

Its a homeless shelter for familes, not long term, and it is a group home for teens, most of whom cannot be placed in foster homes.

That's a great example of a weird Great School score--Burning Tree is fine, nice small elementary school and I have no idea why the score is so low.

Burning Tree has a learning center classroom for kids with special needs in each grade which affects their test scores. It’s a wonderful school and PP is right that it’s an example of Great Schools data being dumb.

I live in a SFH close to downtown Bethesda, and have seen a softening of the market in Edgemoor and environs. But nothing like THIS! I'm surprised - Whitman is the top MCPS high school.

Busy road
Youth rehab very close
Lot is not great. Photos don't show that.

It is older than it looks in the photos when actually touring

Schools.

Maybe there's a divorce or some other need to sell the house quickly so they are listing at a cut rate. The busy street near a very busy intersection doesn't help, but this is A LOT of house for 2.5m

No idea. Busy road but that house should be worth more than 2.5 even thought it’s slightly dated.

On a busy road. And isn’t there some youth rehab near there?

It is nice and feels like 3-4 m range, right?
