**A Remarkable Bethesda Estate Where Artisanal Craftsmanship Meets Modern Luxury** 9413 Brooke Drive is an extraordinary estate that seamlessly blends artisanal craftsmanship, historic inspiration, and modern luxury. Originally built in 1988, the home was purchased in 2013 and lovingly reimagined by the current owners, who invested a tremendous amount of time, energy, and resources to reimagine every room, system, and surface with uncompromising attention to detail. Completed in three meticulous renovation phases, the residence has been comprehensively refined both aesthetically and structurally. Improvements include new EIFS (exterior insulation and finish system) exterior, new roof, new Weather Shield windows and doors, and new dual-zone HVAC systems, ensuring comfort, efficiency, and longevity—while preserving a timeless, collected aesthetic rarely found in newer construction. Spanning over 8,000 finished square feet across four beautifully finished levels, the home offers seven bedrooms and eight luxurious full bathrooms plus a powder room, all thoughtfully designed to balance grand entertaining with intimate everyday living. Signature Kitchen & Entertaining Spaces The kitchen, dining area, and pantry were designed by acclaimed Washington, DC designer Josh Hildreth of Josh Hildreth Interiors and have been featured in The Washington Post, Washingtonian, Home & Design, Mansion Global, and John Eric Home. Inspired by a reimagined 19th-century barn aesthetic, the space showcases antique reclaimed chestnut columns and beams, shiplap oak ceilings, Wood-Mode and Brookhaven cabinetry, and Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances. Finishes include antique stone flooring from the Cotswolds, hand-painted French tiles above the range, Kodiak Brown granite countertops, and Imperial Danby marble in the pantry.
