This spacious and rarely available top floor 3 bedroom corner condo with one and a half baths is in a charming and convenient location less than half a mile from the Grosvenor Metro and Garrett Park. Equally appealing is the relatively low condo fee that includes most utilities and many amenities. While this community is nestled into greenery not far from Rock Creek Park and its many bike and walking paths, it is also convenient to both 495 and 270. For music fans, there are indoor and outdoor concerts at the beautiful Strathmore Music Hall within half a mile or smaller indoor concerts with high tea at the nearby Strathmore Mansion. The condo floors are nice hardwoods, covered by newish carpet, which can be removed. The owner has enjoyed planting flowers on the good-size balcony -- perfect for hibiscus, impatiens, and begonias that are handily out of reach on the second floor balcony from the peaceful deer wandering among the trees below. The primary bedroom has a half bathroom and currently has a king bed, two dressers, a nightstand and a bookcase. The second bedroom has included a queen bed, dresser, large bookshelf, and a table/desk. The combined dining and living room has plenty of sunlight, with sliding glass doors to the balcony. The nearby trees provide privacy and serenity. The galley kitchen has ample storage and counter space. The amount of closet space is decent for each bedroom, as well as for the three hall closets, and there is additional storage space available in the building.

The location is excellent in terms of both nearby amenities and convenience. The Parkside Condominium complex includes two pools, a tennis court, two club houses, and other outdoor features. There is a Ride-On bus steps away from the condo that leads within minutes to the Grosvenor Metro, Strathmore Hall, Westfield/Montgomery Mall with theatres, shopping, and restaurants, as well as Wildwood Shopping Center --with Balduccis, Starbucks, Le Pain Quotidien, Piccoli Piatti Pizzeria, Rakugaki for sushi, Flower Child, Sarah's Handmade Ice Cream, Bethesda Bagel, and other shops/stores. The metro itself is within a half mile. Pike and Rose is less than 2 miles away, as is Whole Foods, Seasons 52 and other shops and and restaurants, including Garrett Park's Black Market Bistro featuring historical pictures of the area. There is plenty of free parking steps away from the condo in the lots or on the street. NIH and Walter Reed Bethesda Medical Center are only one metro stop away, and downtown Bethesda is two stops. The open house is scheduled from 2 to 4 on Sunday, February 18th.
