Property Description
Tucked into the heart of Downtown Bethesda, where Elm Street hums with the energy of Bethesda Row's restaurants, shops, and tree-lined sidewalks, this nineteenth-floor one-bedroom residence at The Elm offers a perch above it all without losing touch with the life below. At 738 square feet, the layout is thoughtfully proportioned open where it counts, private where it matters, and finished with the kind of details that make an apartment feel like a home from the first walk-through. The living space is where this residence earns its character. An open floor plan allows the eye to travel freely from the kitchen peninsula across the main living area to the windows beyond, and on the nineteenth floor, those windows do real work. Light pours in during the morning hours and softens into a warm glow by late afternoon, shifting the mood of the room without any effort on your part. Recessed lighting throughout the ceiling means evenings are just as considered bright when you want it, ambient when you don't. A ceiling fan keeps air moving through the warmer months, and the upgraded countertops in the kitchen add a clean, polished contrast to the stainless steel appliances that line the space. The kitchen is equipped with a refrigerator, stove, microwave with range hood, dishwasher, disposal, and ice maker, along with a self-cleaning oven a full setup that handles everything from a quick weeknight dinner to a longer weekend cook. In-unit washer and dryer connections mean laundry fits into your routine rather than interrupting it. The bedroom is anchored by a walk-in closet that provides the kind of storage rarely found at this square footage, and the entry-level bedroom layout means there are no half-flights or awkward transitions to navigate. The bathroom is clean and functional, positioned for easy access from both the sleeping and living areas. Community life at The Elm is built around amenities that cover a wide range of routines and preferences. A rooftop deck gives you one of the better vantage points in this part of Bethesda the kind of place where an evening unwinding becomes something you actually look forward to. The fitness center handles daily workouts without requiring a separate membership, and the pool offers a way to decompress on warm afternoons. A clubhouse, game room, and meeting room provide flexible social and professional space depending on what the day calls for. Concierge and security services add a layer of ease and peace of mind, and the gated access reinforces that sense of a building that takes its residents' comfort seriously. For residents with pets, a dedicated dog park is on-site, and the building welcomes both cats and dogs. Parking is available in an attached garage, and a picnic area rounds out the outdoor offerings. The neighborhood itself is part of what makes this address work. Bethesda Row places acclaimed dining, independent boutiques, and everyday conveniences within a short walk of the building's front door. The Bethesda Metro station on the Red Line is close enough that a car-free lifestyle is entirely practical whether you're heading into the District for the day or connecting onward across the region. The walkability of this corridor means that most of what you need, from morning coffee to a late dinner reservation, is reachable on foot. For those who do keep a vehicle, the garage parking provides a straightforward solution without the anxiety of street parking in an active urban district. A residence on the nineteenth floor of a building this well-amenitized, in a neighborhood with this level of transit access and street-level energy, is the kind of combination that is easier to appreciate once you're living it. Pricing and availability subject to change on a daily basis. Photos are of model units. Parking may be available subject to availability and may be an additional fee.
