Own a piece of history! Arguably one of the most storied homes in Chevy Chase, this beautifully preserved Sears “Maywood” bungalow (1925) pairs historic authenticity with creative soul. Authenticated through permit records naming R.C. Hunter & Bro. as architect and Columbia Realty & Construction Co. as builder, this home reflects the original Maywood plan’s hallmarks: low rooflines, grouped windows that flood the interiors with light, and graceful arched side-porch openings.
Beyond its architectural pedigree, the home holds a remarkable cultural legacy: for decades it was the residence of a beloved national broadcaster and storyteller, whose salon-like gatherings drew many of Washington’s creative and intellectual figures. Jazz legend Dave Brubeck is said to have played here on several memorable evenings - adding to the property’s lore as a place where conversation and music flowed as easily as light through its many windows.
Inside, warmth and craftsmanship abound with original wood floors, a large stone fireplace anchoring the spacious living room, a sun-filled enclosed porch, light-drenched kitchen, large dining room and a stylish half bath. Upstairs are three generous bedrooms, a full bath, and an additional half bath ready for easy conversion to a second full bath. The large lower level with abundant storage and expansion potential plus plumbing for additional bathroom. Outside, mature landscaping, a large detached garage, and a fenced yard create a private haven for everyday living and entertaining.
Just a short stroll to Lafayette Elementary, Broad Branch Market, neighborhood parks, shopping & dining and trails, 3510 Morrison Street NW is a home of history, artistry, and enduring charm.
