$3.6M Italian-Inspired Villa Has Wine Cellar, Outdoor Spa Retreat

BETHESDA, MD — Bethesda is known to have some of the most beautiful houses in Montgomery County. And this Greenwich Forest neighborhood home is no exception.

Inspired by Tuscan architecture, 8001 Overhill Rd. features a stucco and fieldstone exterior, arches, and a tower-like chimney. The Italian-style villa has four bedrooms, four-and-a-half bathrooms, and 7,588 square feet of living space. The price: a cool $3,650,000.

Upon entering the home, you are greeted by several arched doorways, 10-foot ceilings with exposed wood beams, and pillowed-edge floors.

The nearby kitchen is equipped with an expansive center island, multiple chandeliers, and Wood-Mode cabinets. It overlooks the family room — which makes keeping tabs on the kids and hosting dinner parties a breeze.

The main level also houses two separate libraries/offices.

Other outstanding highlights include a finished walk-out lower level, a full-service bar/catering center, a professionally installed wine cellar, and a guest suite that leads to a private flagstone patio.

It's no surprise that the backyard is equally as impressive. Here, you'll find an incredible outdoor spa retreat with a hot tub, fireplace, and heated swimming pool.
