On the main level, the owner's suite has an uninterrupted series of clerestory windows on three sides and custom closets in an en-suite bath with sauna shower.

Four Weeks in Washington Grove

Over in the Gaithersburg suburb of Washington Grove, a town with a private beachfront lake, this cottage was originally constructed in 1875 and expanded in 1998, lending it an interesting mix of features. A shiplap accent wall sits in the dining room and a wood-planked tray ceiling sits above the kitchen. The living room has a stone, wood-burning fireplace and a steep pitched, skylit ceiling with exposed beams. The main level owner's suite has a stained glass bay window and is large enough to accommodate a sizeable seating area. On the second floor, a bonus room has skylit cove ceiling and an archtop trio of windows. The lower level has an extensive wood-working workshop, and the rear yard has a patio area, a hot tub and a carriage house. The home went under contract after about a month on the market.
