About 5402 Surrey St
This inviting Somerset residence has been lovingly maintained by the same family for more than 40 years. Thoughtfully expanded in the 1990s, the home offers five bedrooms and four full bathrooms across three finished levels, blending timeless character with versatile living spaces.
The main level welcomes you with the warmth of hardwood floors and a bright living room anchored by a fireplace and expansive front window. The dining room opens onto a deck overlooking the rear garden, while the adjoining kitchen and breakfast room provide a comfortable setting for everyday living. Three bedrooms, including one that works beautifully as a den or office, along with two full bathrooms, complete this floor.
Upstairs, the private primary suite serves as a true retreat, featuring a spacious sitting area, two large closets, a spa-like bathroom, and a balcony with sweeping garden views. An additional open space on this level offers flexibility for use as an office, study, or playroom.
The lower level extends the living space with two large recreation rooms ideal for gatherings, hobbies, or casual evenings at home. A fifth bedroom and full bathroom, laundry facilities, and direct access to the attached one-car garage complete this level.
What makes this property especially distinctive are its grounds. Mature plantings, lush greenery, and blooming perennials create a natural sanctuary—a private oasis for outdoor living and quiet enjoyment. Whether dining on the deck, entertaining on the lawn, or simply savoring the view from the upstairs balcony, the gardens provide a serene backdrop in every season.
The Town of Somerset offers something rare: small-town charm with urban convenience. Somerset provides amenities not found in neighboring communities, including a community pool, tennis courts, dedicated snow and trash removal, and a town arborist who maintains the canopy of mature trees. Daily life in the town is easy and connected. A neighborhood path leads to Norwood Park and the Capital Crescent Trail, while Friendship Heights Metro, shopping, dining, and entertainment are just minutes away. More than anything, Somerset is known for its spirit of community—neighbors become lifelong friends, and many residents stay for decades, drawn by a warmth and convenience that is truly unmatched in the Washington area.
