5420 Moorland Ln, Bethesda, MD 20814

Description

Located on a private, 0.3-acre lot in Edgemoor, 5420 Moorland Lane is a perfect blend of modern and traditional architecture, custom designed and built in 2003 through a collaboration between premier luxury builder Sandy Spring Builders (SSB) and the award-winning architects at Studio Z. Built to the highest standards, the home offers over 9,000 square feet of refined living space across four finished levels. The property is framed by lush landscaping and a welcoming front porch, creating a sense of privacy and tranquility just a short stroll from the vibrant dining and retail of Bethesda Row.

The interior begins with a gracious entry foyer that leads into the heart of the home. A standout feature is the remarkable French-inspired chef’s kitchen, detailed with quality concrete countertops and gorgeous reclaimed hardwood floors, which flows into a bright morning room defined by beamed cathedral ceilings and a raised-hearth fireplace. The main floor is designed for both formal and informal gatherings, featuring an elegant dining room, a comfortable living room, and an inviting family room with glass doors that open to the rear terrace. A private office, two powder rooms, and a functional mudroom with a side entry complete this level.

The second floor is anchored by a sophisticated primary suite, where vaulted tray ceilings and expansive windows create a bright, airy retreat overlooking the beautiful backyard. This space includes an extensive dressing area and a primary bathroom that was fully renovated in 2024, featuring separate vanities, a soaking tub, and a glass shower. The suite also offers a private exercise or yoga room and a balcony with peaceful garden views. Three additional bedrooms and two well-appointed bathrooms provide ample space on this level, alongside a second designated home office or den. The top floor provides a delightful area for hobbies or study, offering two more bedrooms with reading alcoves, a full bathroom, and a unique "secret" hideaway room.

The lower level serves as a premier entertainment hub, housing a massive recreation room and a temperature-controlled wine cellar with a dedicated tasting room, alongside a guest bedroom and full bath. This expansive space offers many possibilities for customization, including a home theater or a secondary gym. Outside, the fully fenced rear garden is an extension of the living space, featuring extensive hardscaping and custom lighting. Combining architectural significance with an unmatched location, this estate represents the very best of the sought-after Edgemoor lifestyle.
