One-level living in Bethesda is at the heart of this meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated brick-and-cedar ranch, offering more than 5,000 square feet of living space on a private 1.05-acre lot. With a main-level primary suite, a second ensuite bedroom on the main level, 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and four wood-burning fireplaces, this exceptional home offers the ease of single-level living with generous additional space for guests, recreation, and storage—all just minutes from downtown Bethesda, Metro, and Washington, DC.
A soaring skylit foyer opens to expansive, light-filled living spaces. The living room features a painted brick fireplace, wet bar, and walls of glass overlooking the private setting. The dramatic great room offers vaulted ceilings, a striking stacked-stone fireplace, and seamless access to the outdoors.
The kitchen features a gas cooktop island, Butler's pantry, wine refrigerator, updated appliances (2018), and breakfast area, with easy access to the screened porch and formal dining room. A renovated laundry room (2024) and attached garage with resurfaced floor (2025) add to the convenience of true main-level living.
The spacious primary suite features vaulted ceilings, three custom walk-in closets (2025), and a spa-inspired bath renovated in 2023 with heated floors and a freestanding soaking tub. A second main-level bedroom offers its own fireplace, custom library shelving with a rolling ladder, and a renovated ensuite bath (2024).
The walk-out lower level includes two additional bedrooms, a full bath, flexible recreation or fitness space, and abundant storage. Outside, a bluestone patio provides a peaceful setting for entertaining, dining, or relaxing.
Recent improvements include a freshly painted exterior, new roof, chimney caps, and repaved driveway with lighting, all completed in 2025. Dual HVAC systems (2013) have been meticulously maintained, and a whole-house generator provides added peace of mind.
6800 Melody Lane offers a rare opportunity for spacious one-level living, privacy, thoughtful updates, and exceptional convenience in a premier Bethesda location.
