This two bedroom and two and a half bath home in the popular Gables community of North Bethesda is spacious and updated for the incoming buyer. The private entrance welcomes you, and just up the stairs, you will find the open layout boasting what every main living space needs. There is a wood-burning fireplace in the living room to warm up by in the winter, and when the weather is warm, there is a porch to relax on and enjoy the sunlight. The living room flows into the formal dining space large enough to comfortably host guests. The kitchen is updated with stainless steel appliances, white cabinets which offer ample storage and counter space. You will also find a stacked washer and dryer as well as a powder room on this main floor.

Upstairs, the new owners will enjoy two generously-sized bedrooms, each with ensuite bathrooms and large walk-in closets. Both bathrooms have been updated with new finishes and granite countertops. There is also a large linen closet for additional storage in the hallway.

A unique feature that makes this condo stand out is the oasis in the middle of the complex - a pond with a waterfall and a gazebo to relax in while escaping the busy city life. The community also provides four clay tennis courts, indoor squash court, outdoor pool, billiards room, playground and walking paths. If hosting a significant event, the clubhouse is available to be reserved.

The surrounding area offers plenty to do, including shopping at Pike & Rose and visiting one of the many local parks like Garrett Park, Stratton Local Park and the Trolley Trail. Also nearby is Whole Food Market for groceries and Cabin John Dog Park for furry family members. For commuters, the Grosvenor Metro, and proximity to 495 is very convenient and the Walter Reed Hospital and the National Institute of Health Bethesda campus are nearby. Pet friendly community.
