Yes, the map will show “Lone Oak,” but ignore the well-known west side. Turn east instead, slip past the traffic, and Lone Oak suddenly becomes a hushed, tree-lined lane that ends in 14 acres of county park—tennis courts, playground, ball fields, pavilion, and direct access to the North Bethesda Trail. That's where you'll find the herringbone brick drive and stucco façade waiting for you. This is the hidden side of Lone Oak most people never discover.
From the moment those arched windows catch the light, you know you're not looking at another new-build box. This is a house with soul—built for someone who still believes in craftsmanship, warmth, and rooms that feel like they've always belonged to you.
Step inside and the two-story foyer stops you in your tracks. Hand-laid Italian tile underfoot, a wrought-iron staircase that looks like it grew there with its vines and blossoms, and sunlight pouring down from above. The family room rises the full two stories on the other side of the house, anchored by a massive stone fireplace you'll actually want to sit in front of on a winter night.
Everything flows. The kitchen was clearly designed by someone who cooks and entertains, big enough for a crowd, thoughtful enough for two people and a bottle of wine. There's a proper 2nd/CATERING kitchen hidden behind it, a walk-in pantry kitchen, a breakfast room that feels like its own greenhouse, and a deck that runs the length of the back of the house. A discreet secondary staircase sweeps up from the kitchen area so you can come and go without crossing the main rooms. And because guests shouldn't have to climb stairs to find a powder room, there are two beautifully done ones on the main level.
And because not every day is perfect, there's an ELEVATOR that glides quietly to all three levels and a main-floor bedroom for guests (or for you, when stairs sound like too much work).
Upstairs, the owner's suite is the kind of retreat people spend their whole lives trying to create: its own fireplace, private gym, dual walk-in closets large enough to get lost in, and a spa bath with separate vanities, whirlpool tub, huge shower, redwood sauna, and, because some arguments should never happen over one bathroom, two private water closets.
The walk-out lower level gives you a recreation room with the fourth fireplace, gym space, storage that actually holds everything, and a true in-law or au pair residence: spacious living/dining room, full kitchen, bedroom, bath, private patio, and its own HVAC zone so everyone stays comfortable on their own terms.
Outside, the gardens are the stuff of magazine covers, stone-framed potager and cutting beds lit at night like a private villa, yet there's still an expansive, perfectly flat lawn with more than enough room to add an Olympic-length pool and still keep the feeling of an Italian estate (the current owners left it open on purpose for exactly that reason).
And the location? A lifestyle unmatched anywhere else in the DMV. Minutes to Wildwood Shopping Center, Pike & Rose, Downtown Bethesda, and NIH. Hop on 270 or 495 in under five. The area's top public and private schools are practically around the corner. Ten minutes to Woodmont, Bethesda, Kenwood, or Congressional. Tyson's Galleria, Georgetown, and four major airports are all within 30–45 minutes.
This isn't the house you settle for.
This is the one you've been waiting for your entire life.
Private showings only. When you see it, you'll understand why.
