A rare offering in Chevy Chase Section Five, 6 Leland Court pairs classic 1936 architecture with a comprehensive 2018 renovation, resulting in a beautifully updated residence with more than 6,000 square feet of finished living space and an exceptionally desirable floor plan. Set on a 10,706-square-foot lot, the home blends timeless character, including antique pine floors, with thoughtful modern upgrades designed for everyday comfort and effortless entertaining.
The home’s most remarkable feature is its second level, where five spacious bedrooms—each with its own en-suite bath!—are located on the same floor, an extraordinarily rare layout in the area. The primary suite serves as a luxurious retreat, featuring a sitting area, generous walk-in closet, and a striking spa bath with a Victoria + Albert soaking tub, dramatic double-shower wet room, and Waterworks fixtures. A convenient hallway laundry closet and large linen closet add practical functionality to this thoughtfully designed level.
At the heart of the home is a truly professional-grade chef’s kitchen, designed by an actual chef. Highlights include a commercial Wolf range and oven—upgraded in 2021 with a custom Vent-A-Hood—along with two full-size Sub-Zero refrigerators, a Sub-Zero ice machine, Bosch dishwasher (2023), custom cabinetry, and a pantry. A large island with prep sink and wine refrigerator anchors the space, while the adjoining breakfast area comfortably accommodates a full dining table, creating a warm gathering place for everyday living.
The main level balances elegant entertaining with comfortable family living. A gracious living room with gas fireplace and custom cast-stone surround and a formal dining room offer classic entertaining spaces, while a spacious family room with fireplace provides a relaxed setting for daily life. Glass doors from the family room open directly to the backyard pool and patio, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. Additional highlights include a private office, mudroom, and the charm and convenience of both front and back staircases.
The lower level offers a generous recreation room, a sixth bedroom, and a full bath accessible from both the bedroom and rec space, ideal for guests, an au pair, or extended family.
Outside, the property unfolds as a private retreat. The flat backyard features a pool, spa, expansive pool deck, and pool house shed, creating a resort-like setting for summer entertaining and relaxation. In front, a welcoming covered porch with two swings offers a perfect place to enjoy quiet mornings or evening conversations with neighbors. A temperature-controlled two-car garage, currently outfitted as an impressive home gym, offers flexible use and can easily be converted back to traditional parking.
To top it all off, the location of this stunning home absolutely cannot be beat. Sitting on a quiet cul-de-sac, 6 Leland Court offers exceptional access to the best of the area. It is within the highly rated Bethesda-Chevy Chase school cluster and just moments from both Chevy Chase and Columbia Country Clubs, as well as the shops along Brookville Road. Approximately 25 minutes to downtown Washington, DC and just one mile from the Beltway, the location also places you just over a mile from downtown Bethesda’s vibrant dining and shopping scene, and mere blocks from the soon-to-open Purple Line Metro.
With its rare five en-suite bedrooms on one level, serious chef’s kitchen, extensive renovation, exceptional outdoor living space, and unbeatable location, 6 Leland Court represents a truly special opportunity in one of the area’s most sought-after neighborhoods. Welcome Home!
