NEW IMAGES OF TOLL BROTHERS HAMPDEN ROW CONDOS IN BETHESDA (PHOTOS)

Toll Brothers City Living is dialing up the promotion on its future Hampden Row luxury condos, which are currently under construction on Hampden Lane at Arlington Road, in downtown Bethesda. A new, updated website has launched, and new renderings of the exterior and interior are now available, which reflect the tag line of "Fashionably Traditional."

Rather than an overtly-modern facade, Toll Brothers has chosen a fusion of brick and stone, punctuated with oversize windows. If you examine the existing buildings around it, you'll find this was an excellent choice by company, as the color tones and textures on those and the Hampden Row renderings blend together nicely. As much as I am a fan of the modern buildings of Dubai and Shanghai, this will fit the location and surroundings quite well, including the library across Arlington Road.

Inside the units, 9-foot ceilings, hardwood floors with 5" planks, and custom millwork will offset high-end finishes and appliances by Gaggenau, Thermador, and Bosch. Fixtures will be by Grohe.




Amenities are in-line with competing properties under construction nearby, including 24-hour concierge, rooftop terrace and fitness center. The website emphasizes the building's close proximity to Metro, Bethesda Row and the Capital Crescent Trail. They might want to add that you have a public library literally across the street, as well.

The showdown between Hampden Row and same-block neighbor The Lauren will be an interesting storyline once both are completed and selling. They will both compete with The Darcy on Bethesda Avenue.

And a liquor store, too.

And what's the deal with the view out the window in the very first photo? Did someone forget to edit that one?

Yes, Libraries are boldly traditional.
