What is Nearby the Kenwood
Although the Kenwood is located on River Road at Little Falls, a very quiet area in Bethesda, the building is just a short mile stroll to downtown Bethesda along the Little Falls Parkway and another mile back toward Washington and Friendship Heights. Metro access is available at both the Bethesda station and Friendship Heights. Lots of buses run up and down River Road on a frequent basis, also providing quick access to Friendship Heights or Montgomery Mall.
Grocery shopping is readily available at the Whole Foods just three blocks up River Road and at the Giant at Westbard, about a half mile away. Other stores at Westbard include the RiteAid, a pet store, Beyda’s, a childrens’ clothing store, and the county liquor store. There are lots of banks nearby, including the SunTrust and Capital One at Westbard, and the Bank of America next door on River Road.
There are not many restaurants immediately nearby, but there are two carryout Chinese restaurants within a five block radius and a Japanese restaurant that offers seating.
Geico headquarters are less than a mile away, and then in Friendship Heights is the local Microsoft headquarters, and a variety of retail establishments and hotels.
The Kenwood is a great place to call home. You will not be disappointed if you end up living here. You can find condos for sale at the Kenwood (if there are any available today) as well as all available condos for sale in Bethesda on my website.
