People who live here enjoy having the green space to walk in, the balconies or terraces, the in unit laundry rooms (not just a stacked washer and dryer) and the pet friendly atmosphere.  Dogs and cats are permitted, although there are size restrictions and the number of pets is limited.  The well maintained brick buildings are a plus too since the maintenance costs are low.  With only 16 units per building, you will get to know all your neighbors well!

Children who live here attend Garret Park Elementary, TIlden Middle and Walter Johnson High School. Nearby private schools include Georgetown Prep, Stone Ridge, and the Charles E Smith Jewish Day School. 

Hint – It’s not Georgetown – but it is some great shopping and outdoor activities!

Pike and Rose has really changed the area near Georgetown Village Condos.

Head to Pinstripes for some grown-up bowling and bocce paired with exceptional Italian and American cuisine.

Shopping at Pike and Rose is exceptional too!  Sephora, H&M, REI, LL Bean, Lucky Brand and Sur La Table are just a few places to get your special gifts.  if all this shopping makes you hungry, you can head over to the Harris Teeter or drive a few miles and go to Balducci’s at Old Georgetown and Democracy.

You may be absolutely certain that you want to live at Georgetown Village because you love being close to Pike and Rose and you want to be close to the metro in a condo with an open floorplan while being close to downtown Bethesda.  However, perhaps you are not certain where you want to live and you are not sure which buildings you should visit. If you want a community with several smaller buildings, you might consider Parkside or Tuckerman Station, both of which have lots of green space and are close to Georgetown Village.   If you like large mid century modern buildings, you might consider the Whitehall in Bethesda or the Promenade at Pooks Hill or smaller mid century modern buildings like the Sussex on Battery.  If you like medium sized modern high rise buildings, you might look at the Christopher, Fairmont Plaza, Madison Park and the City Commons.  You might also consider the Chase, which also has a pool and tennis courts, making it unique for downtown Bethesda.   If you want to stay nearby in North Bethesda, you might consider the Sterling or the White Flint Station on Old Georgetown Road.  If you are feeling completely confused now by all your options, then you should give us a call at 240-401-5577 to talk about which buildings will truly match your wants and needs best!

There are a number of sites on the internet that will give you ‘estimates’ for what your home will sell for. These sites use public records and usually some kind of algorithm to try to produce a value for your home. These sites also publicly state their ‘error rates’. That means they aren’t correct, they are simply an estimate based on incomplete date. We are happy to do a free comparative market analysis of your home or condo in Bethesda (or anywhere else in the DC metro area) and let you know what could expect to get in today’s market if you are considering selling. Our valuation is based on up to the day data for homes that have recently sold in the area. Our valuation is not based on a formula that relies on public records which can take months to update.

I have been a realtor for over 33 years, specializing in helping buyers and sellers with all their Bethesda and Northwest Washington real estate needs. In addition to being a realtor with many years experience in all kinds of markets – the good, the bad and the ugly, I also am an attorney admitted to the bar in the District of Columbia.  While I no longer practice as such, I think that my years of experience as a lawyer also work to the advantage of my clients.

In addition to a deep knowledge of the market and the ins and outs of the real estate transaction, I bring to my sellers a real commitment to technology in general and its absolute necessity in marketing properties.  My buyer clients also benefit from my technology skills because I am constantly searching all the hidden corners of the real estate market looking for that perfect home for them.

If you want an agent who always puts your interests first, then you should call me and set up a time for a cup of coffee, a little pastry and a lot of conversation.   Let me show you Howe Real Estate Should Be.  I am at 240-401-5577 or lise@lisehowe.com.   Looking forward to talking with you!
