OPEN HOUSE SATURDAY 2-4 . Welcome to 3519 Cummings Lane, a charming period colonial with an inviting cottage ambiance nestled in the heart of the Village of Martin's Additions! Tucked away on a picturesque, tree-lined street, this lovely home is just steps from everything that makes this neighborhood so special-Chevy Chase Park, the beloved weekly farmer's market, Olympia cafe, Brookville Supermarket, and the neighborhood favorite, La Ferme Restaurant. Plus, it's in bounds for the highly sought-after CCRA Swim and Tennis Club. Brimming with character and thoughtful updates, this four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom home is filled with natural light and showcases beautifully restored oak floors. The inviting living room features a cozy wood-burning fireplace and beautiful custom built-ins and is flanked by doors leading to a covered porch on one side and a set of elegant French doors opening onto a spacious deck on the other. The newly updated kitchen is a true showstopper, boasting sleek quartz countertops, classic subway tile, brand-new cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances-including a new 36""� gas stove with five burners. Flowing seamlessly from the kitchen, the butler's pantry and mudroom provide extra storage and convenient side access, while the spacious adjacent family room-complete with built-in bookshelves and a media nook-offers the perfect spot to relax and unwind. A formal dining room with lots of natural light and a powder room complete the main level, creating a perfect balance of elegance and functionality. Front and back staircases lead to the second floor, where the primary suite awaits-a serene retreat featuring a generous walk-in closet and a flexible space ideal for a home office or nursery. The primary bath includes a double vanity and a walk-in shower. Three additional bedrooms and a well-appointed hall bath complete this level. The lower level offers an incredible opportunity to expand your living space. With its expansive footprint, this area is ready to be transformed into a large, full, lower-level suite-perfect for a recreation room, an additional bedroom, and a bath. Whether you envision a private guest suite, a home gym, or a media room, this space holds endless possibilities. Outside, the home boasts a two-sided spacious driveway with ample off-street parking. The beautifully landscaped front and back yards provide a delightful garden view, highlighted by a stunning Tulip Tree on the verge of blooming-adding a touch of natural beauty to this charming property. From its thoughtful design to its unbeatable location, this move-in-ready home is a rare find in one of the most desirable neighborhoods in the D.C. area. Don't miss your chance to make it yours!
