7201 BROXBURN DRIVE, BETHESDA, MD 20817 - Steven Joseph Real Estate LLC

$2,300,000

Set atop 1.28 wooded acres in the coveted Bannockburn neighborhood, 7201 Broxburn Drive is a masterful study in architectural restraint, landscape, and light. Originally designed by renowned mid-century modern architect Charles Goodman, the residence was thoughtfully transformed by the acclaimed team at Studio Twenty Seven Architecture, into an award-winning compound… Read More that feels both deeply connected to its natural setting and profoundly private. Recipient of the 2020 Washingtonian Residential Design Award and the 2019 AIA Virginia Honor Award for Excellence in Residential Architecture, the home exemplifies the rare balance between preservation and reinvention. Inside, nearly 4,150 square feet of living space unfolds with elegance and dramatic scale. Vaulted ceilings, walls of glass, and carefully framed views create an immersive connection to nature throughout. The main living and dining space serves as the architectural heart of the residence, anchored by soaring 11'10" ceilings and expansive glazing that draws the outdoors inward. The kitchen blends seamlessly into the space, designed for both effortless entertaining and everyday living. Nearby, a private courtyard functions as an extension of the interior - a tranquil outdoor room enveloped by the surrounding landscape. A study, two guest bedrooms and baths, and a thoughtfully designed laundry room complete the original portion of the home. Two carefully positioned pavilion additions were introduced according to precise sight lines and view corridors, preserving the home's original relationship to the landscape while creating a series of serene outdoor rooms and intimate garden moments. Delicate glass walkways lightly connect the structures, allowing the architecture to dissolve into the surrounding canopy of mature trees. Clad entirely in Shou Sugi Ban - traditional Japanese charred cedar - the residence carries a quiet sophistication, its richly textured exterior designed to gracefully patina over time against the wooded hillside. The first pavilion houses the stunning primary suite, where a vaulted ceiling, spa-inspired bath, walk-in closet, and private office create a secluded retreat elevated among the trees. The second pavilion offers a guest suite with its own bath, wet bar, Murphy bed, and private terrace - equally suited for visitors, creative pursuits, or an additional lounge space. Completing the property is a detached studio tucked toward the rear of the grounds, ideal as a home office, fitness studio, or artist's retreat, along with a detached two-car garage and welcoming parking courtyard. Every detail of the renovation was approached with reverence for the home's original mid-century ethos: simple forms, carefully curated materials, and an unwavering commitment to preserving the emotional experience of the site. The result is a residence that feels timeless and quietly extraordinary - a modern architectural sanctuary where design and nature exist in complete harmony. Read Less
