Property Description

Built in 1942 during the historic expansion of the nation's capital, 8215 Larry Pl represents the enduring architectural character of early Rock Creek Forest. Owned by the same family since 1983, this property offers the option to renovate and preserve its 1940s charm or modernize the build, and it's an investment in a neighborhood rooted in deep history and community value. The home faces west, and the rear walks out to the east, offering 3 bedrooms and a full bathroom with a walk-in shower. The main level features a converted garage den / home office with its own closet, window, and exterior doors. Directly off the main living area, a light-filled enclosed porch with integrated heating. The east-facing backyard deck, right of the kitchen, receives beautiful morning sun and is nicely framed by planted Green Giant Cypress-type evergreen trees, providing excellent year-round natural privacy. Downstairs, a walk-out lower level offers good ceiling height and bathroom plumbing rough-ins. Tucked quietly north of East-West Highway and east of Connecticut Avenue, minutes from Downtown Bethesda, Friendship Heights, Downtown Silver Spring, the DC line, NIH, and Walter Reed. Families gain access to top-rated Montgomery County Schools (BCC high school cluster). Outdoor enthusiasts are moments from Rock Creek Park and Meadowbrook Stables, and a bike trail to the National Zoo.
