$75,000 Above Asking in Chevy Chase 

This three-bedroom in Chevy Chase spent less than a week on the market in December before selling at a $75,000 premium a few days ago. An entry hallway in the Mikkelson colonial leads to an open kitchen with tan-painted cabinetry, marble counters, and a breakfast bar overlooking the kitchen and dining area. The formal dining room connects to a screened porch, and two living areas offer ample space for entertainment. Upstairs, the primary suite has a walk-through closet leading to the en-suite bathroom, with white tiling and granite counters, a separate soaking tub and a glass shower area. A top-floor attic has been converted into a living space that would make the ideal office.
