Chevy Chase Maryland Real Estate | Neighborhood Guide

Chevy Chase Maryland real estate occupies the southern tip of Montgomery County directly along the DC border, separated from Northwest Washington by Western Avenue. One of the earliest planned streetcar suburbs in the region, the area was developed by the Chevy Chase Land Company beginning in 1890 along Connecticut Avenue — and has held its architectural character and residential prestige for over a century.

Chevy Chase Maryland Real Estate Neighborhoods and Price Tiers

Several distinct communities define Chevy Chase Maryland real estate. The Village — incorporated in 1951 with just 721 homes — is the most exclusive enclave, where Colonial and Tudor estates trade at medians exceeding $2.6M and well-priced properties go under contract in under a week. Kenwood, celebrated for its Japanese cherry tree-lined streets, carries medians near $3.5M with access to the Kenwood Country Club. The western sections and Martin's Additions offer Colonial and Craftsman homes at more accessible price points. Rock Creek Forest spans $500K–$2M along the eastern edge, bordering parkland.
