Grosvenor Mews

Grosvenor Mews townhomes are a small community of approximately 100 homes located between the Beltway, I-270 and the Rockville Pike.  It is close to the Grosvenor Metro, Strathmore, North Bethesda and downtown Bethesda.  These townhomes range in size from slightly more than 1600 square feet in living space to over 2500 square feet. Interestingly some are HOAs and others are condos.  Still they are all part of Grosvenor Mews and they are all on King Charles.  The community is small enough to get to know your neighbors and you will love being so close to the park at Beach Drive where you can run, bike and walk your dog!

The Grosvenor Mews has limited amenities. You get a parking place as part of your ownership, but no pool or exercise room.  Of course, Grosvenor Mews is very close to Beach Drive with all the trails, play grounds and parks there.

There are a variety of floorplans at Grosvenor Mews.  For instance, the eight 1620 square foot units are condos with two levels and two or three bedrooms and two and a half baths.  This model is essentially a piggy back unit like those found at Parthenon Court or  City Commons of Bethesda.

The eight 1853 square foot units are also two level piggy back townhomes with either two bedrooms or three and two and a half baths or more.  The 1898 square foot units (31 units in total) have 3 levels.  Some have a loft level too.  The bedrooms and bathrooms differ from unit to unit.  Some have 2 bedrooms and 3 and a half baths.  Others have three bedrooms and three and a half baths.  The 1944 square foot units (26 of them) are varied floorplans too with some being two bedrooms and others being three bedrooms.  Approximately 25 units are 1976 square feet – again with a variety of floorplans.  There also are four large units (2489 square feet – 2517 square feet.) These are the original luxury townhomes built in the community with very contemporary lines and skylights.

Pets are welcomed at Grosvenor Mews.

Children who live at Grovesnor Mews attend Ashburton Elementary, North Bethesda Middle School and Walter Johnson High School.    Georgetown Prep, a well regarded Catholic high school for boys, is just a few blocks away  on the Rockville Pike and  Stone Ridge School for girls is just  a few blocks south on the Rockville Pike. In 2021, Walter Johnson ranked 5th in Montgomery County high schools behind Whitman, Poolesville, Wootton and Churchill (in that order) in the US News and World Report school rankings.  It was 11th in the state overall.  The AP® participation rate at Walter Johnson High is 76%. Also according to US News, the total minority enrollment is 46%, and 7% of students are economically disadvantaged.  You can also choose from schools like the Lycee Rochambeau, Holton-Arms and Landon.

If you want to take your children to swim, you will love how close the Bethesda Aquatic Center is on Executive Boulevard. The new Rockville Library is just about a mile away and of course the Bethesda library is similarly located a mile to the south.

Major employers in Bethesda include Marriott, the Walter Reed Medical Center, The Howard Hughes Institute, The National Institutes of Health, Capital One Bank, Lockheed Martin, and the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. The Chase condos are across the street from the Red Line Metro in downtown Bethesda and very close to the new purple line.  The Beltway and I-270 are very close too so that you can always get around the metro area from here.

Shopping is easy with the Rockville Pike nearly outside your door.  Pike and Rose offers restaurants, shops, movie theaters and a new town feel.

Grosvenor Mews is a welcome respite from the noise of daily life – but so close to everything that is Bethesda.  The Grosvenor Metro (Red line) is a short walk from the community and from there you can access all of the DC metro area.

Located between North Bethesda and downtown Bethesda, residents have a choice of restaurants such as Seasons 52 on the Rockville Pike and Ruth’s Chris Steak House on Wisconsin Avenue at the Air Rights Building.  The Pike and Rose offers lots more delicious choices like Call Your Mother, Summer House, Fogo de Chao, and Owens Ordinary.

Of course, downtown Bethesda has a variety of restaurants like Paul, Silver, Mon Ami Gabi, Blacks and so many more.  Shops in downtown Bethesda range from national stores like Apple, Blue Mercury, Bonobos, Lululemon to individual stores like Blue House.

The nearest grocery stores are the Whole Foods in Rockville at Woodglen Drive and Executive Boulevard, the Giant on the Rockville Pike, and the Harris Teeter at  Wisconsin Avenue near NIH.  The Strathmore Music Center is less than a mile away if you want to go to a concert or hear the Baltimore Symphony.  Shopping is diverse – H&M, Blue Mercury, L.L. BEAN,REI, West Elm, GAP, Visionworks, and Porsche!

Life is more than just shopping and eating however.  If you want to get outside for a long run or a peaceful walk, you will love that Beach Drive is so close.  Follow the paths along Beach Drive that will take you far into the woods of Rock Creek Park!

White Flint is scheduled for a complete renovation at some date in the future – but no one is sure when!  Don’t forget that Balducci’s is just a mile or two away at the Wildwood shopping center on Old Georgetown with all of its great prepared foods and fantastic vegetables, meats and wine selection. Sarah’s Handmade Ice Cream is there too, along with Le Pain Quotidien, Starbucks, Blue Mercury, and South Moon Under, among the many shops and restaurants to choose from at Wildwood.

Montgomery Mall is just a few more minutes away off Democracy in case you feel the need for a big department store like Nordstrom’s or Macy’s.

If there are no homes available right now and you want a small townhome in Bethesda, you might consider City Commons on Battery, Parthenon Court or Kenwood Forest.

You might also check out the townhomes on Parthenon near Montgomery Mall or the ones on Arizona at Bethesda Court.  Don’t miss Hamlet Place off Connecticut Avenue. The fees at Hamlet Place are a little more because it is co-op and taxes are included in your monthly fees.  You should also consider the townhomes at Whitley Park if you particularly like the area just outside the Beltway.   There really are a number of homes to choose from – so why don’t you call me at 240-401-5577 or email me at lise@lisehowe.com to find that perfect home.

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 would love to do a free comparative market analysis of your home  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. Please visit my website in order to get your free property evaluation for your Bethesda home  We would love to help you sell your condo at Grosvenor Mews.

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!
