About this home
The Friedman House- 6620 Fernwood Court A truly exceptional architectural retreat, is set on a breathtaking 35,000+ square-foot wooded lot at the end of a cul-de-sac in the highly coveted Bradley Hills Grove neighborhood of Bethesda, Maryland. Surrounded by mature trees and tranquil natural vistas, this remarkable 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath custom built contemporary residence offers nearly 3,900 square feet of uniquely crafted living space. Its striking Mid-Century Modern design, refined comfort, and nature exist in perfect harmony. Delivering a rare sense of private woodland sanctuary within the Beltway, but just a few minutes from urban conveniences, this one-of-a-kind property embodies serenity, sophistication, and seamless connection to its extraordinary surroundings.
From the moment you enter, the dramatic sun-filled foyer establishes the architectural tone of the home. Vaulted tongue-and-groove cypress beam ceilings, expansive clerestory windows, and angular architectural glass create a light-filled atmosphere that shifts beautifully throughout the day. Newly refinished hardwood floors, exposed brick details, and soaring walls of glass infuse the interiors with warmth, character, and an unmistakable architecturally unique design for this coveted Bethesda neighborhood.
Designed for both everyday living and elegant entertaining, the kitchen features cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, a recently replaced five-burner cooktop, double convection ovens, a built-in microwave, dishwasher, separate ice maker, elevated breakfast bar, recessed lighting, and direct access to the outdoor living spaces. The adjacent living and dining areas are enhanced by a surround sound system and a wood-burning fireplace framed in exposed brick.
Multiple sliding glass doors extend the living experience outdoors, connecting the interior to a stunning wraparound Ipe hardwood deck with stainless steel horizontal ribbing, creating effortless indoor-outdoor flow beneath the canopy of mature trees.
The spacious primary suite serves as a private retreat, featuring an exposed brick accent wall, walls of windows and access to a flagstone patio and backyard, a walk-in closet with custom shelving, and a large ensuite bath with dual vanities, a glass-enclosed shower, and a separate soaking tub.
The secondary bedrooms are exceptionally spacious and thoughtfully designed, each featuring floor to ceiling windows or sliding glass doors that provide direct access to the backyard and surrounding grounds. One bedroom enjoys the privacy of an ensuite bath, while two additional bedrooms share a well-appointed hall bath with sink, offering both comfort and functionality for family and guests alike.
Additional highlights include a powder room on the main level, abundant storage space, a large linen closet, lower-level laundry and utility areas, a two-car garage with front door access, two-zone HVAC with advanced electronic air filtration, floodlighting around the home, a Generac generator and numerous recent updates.
Major improvements include a new roof (2020), new HVAC system (2022), new hot water heater (2022), upgraded drainage system, new water conditioner, air scrubber, generator, and professionally installed landscape lighting.
Offering a rare combination of unique architectural character and privacy in one of Bethesda's most desirable neighborhoods, this exceptional property presents a unique opportunity to enjoy tranquil living just minutes from downtown Bethesda, major commuter routes, shopping, dining, and top-rated public and private schools....
