A Formerly-Featured Robert Gurney Design

Long-time UT readers may remember this Robert Gurney-designed house just on the other side of Western Avenue in Chevy Chase, Maryland. The house is as practical inside as it as interesting outside. Renovated in 2007, the exterior of the house is a modernized take on the mid-century home typical of the neighborhood, with multi-story expanses of windows and glass transoms that make the roof appear to be floating on the rear façade. The interior has features and finishes associated with Gurney, like floor-to-ceiling doors and wide entryways and a custom column living room fireplace between two sets of floor-to-ceiling cabinets. But perhaps the most unique feature of the house is its 23 closets.

• Price: $2,550,000
• Bedrooms: Four
• Bathrooms: 5.5
• Square Feet: 5,160
