Classic Bannockburn, wrapped in an updated package… Welcome to 6501 Bannockburn Drive. This mid-century home offers a rare opportunity to become part of this special community. Practical and full of spunk, it's a turn-key offering that features five bedrooms, three beautifully renovated full baths, an updated kitchen with new appliances, fresh paint, and new carpeting, wood floors to a seamless blend of style, comfort, and everyday livability. So close to everything Bethesda has to offer, the home's light-filled living spaces, a spacious all-season sunroom, and a versatile lower level (complete with a large family room, office area, two additional bedrooms, and a full bath) is the perfect combination of location and functionality. Other recent improvements include a newer roof and HVAC system, new fencing, and a new stone patio, providing both style and peace of mind. Bannockburn is often described as "less a place than a state of mind," attracting generations of residents drawn to its intellectual curiosity and commitment to community. Surrounded by mature trees and winding streets, the neighborhood enjoys close proximity to the C&O Canal, Glen Echo Park, the Capital Crescent Trail, neighborhood pools, parks, and some of the region's most highly regarded public schools, including Bannockburn Elementary, Pyle Middle School, and Walt Whitman High School. Just minutes from downtown Bethesda, Washington, DC, and Northern Virginia, 6501 Bannockburn Drive offers a rare opportunity to become part of one of the Capital Region's most distinctive and admired communities. The home offers generous living spaces and lives larger than reported.
