About this home

An exceptional opportunity to create a brand-new custom residence in one of Bethesda's most desirable settings. To be built by acclaimed builder Welty Homes, 5529 Devon Road is envisioned as a sophisticated modern estate offering approximately 7,600 square feet of finished living space across three expansive levels, with an impressive 8,350 square feet including the three-car garage. Set on a generous 15,509-square-foot lot, the home has been thoughtfully designed for elevated everyday living, effortless entertaining, and exceptional flexibility. The main level is planned around gracious, light-filled gathering spaces, including an expansive kitchen with oversized island and walk-in pantry, adjoining family room with fireplace, formal dining room, den/library, mudroom, and a flexible guest room or private office. A covered rear porch creates a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living, while an elevator provides convenient access to all three levels. Upstairs, the private bedroom level is designed with five spacious bedrooms, including a substantial primary suite with a spa-inspired bath and generous closet space, along with additional en-suite accommodations and a dedicated laundry room. The lower level expands the home's lifestyle offerings with an oversized recreation room, bar, exercise room, guest or au pair suite, and abundant storage. A three-car garage completes this thoughtfully conceived residence. A rare chance to secure new construction of exceptional scale and design in Bethesda, with the opportunity to enjoy a home created for modern luxury from the ground up. Plans and specifications are subject to change during the building process.
