More About Somerset House, Chevy Chase, Maryland
Regardless of the actual neighborhood, this ultra fancy residential community is inside affluent Montgomery County, and just a stone’s throw from the Washington, DC border. The towers range from 18 to 21 stories in height, and each has an underground tunnel leading to the centrally positioned Somerset House Clubhouse and Sports Complex. Each building also has its own amenities, such as doormen, valet parking, community rooms, and more. While the country club-style trappings lend a large degree of appeal, the supersized apartment layouts are also notable, ranging from around 1,141 to over 5,000 square feet.
There are approximately 405 residences between the three buildings, with floor plans between one and four bedrooms. The largest number of units are in the two-to-three bedroom category, often with additional living spaces such as family rooms, dens, and wood-paneled libraries. You’ll find features such as cove ceilings, thick crown molding and other mill work, huge dine-in kitchens, and formal dining rooms.
The high-rise towers have rippled shapes with multiple bays, resulting in some interesting interior room shapes, as well as elongated wraparound private balconies that overlook the surrounding trees, rolling lawns, and gardens. Elegance is the common denominator at Somerset House, and it is quite common for the condos to have received extensive makeovers and remodels from some of Washington’s top architects and interior designers.
The three-story clubhouse and sports complex is spectacular, with both indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a state-of-the-art gym, tennis courts, racquetball, squash, media room, billiards, kitchen, dining, professional sports instructors, tennis pros, and much more. From 24-hour security to serene grounds and walking paths, this is an idyllic lifestyle experience. But when you want to leave the pampered bubble and explore the rest of the outside world, you’ll find yourself in a vibrant setting just off Wisconsin Avenue and close to shops, restaurants, a Whole Foods, and the Friendship Heights Metro station. Bethesda lies just to the north, and Washington, DC is next-door to the south.
