Bethesda’s famous “mushroom house,” nicknamed due to its resemblance to the stemmed fungus, is on the market for a cool $1.2 million.

According to Bethesda Magazine, the 1923 home was purchased by Edward and Frances Garfinkle in 1967.

The Garfinkles bought it in 1967, and a few years later decided on a do-over. “We were kind of misled into thinking it was an inexpensive way to build. It didn’t turn out that way,” says Ed Garfinkle, 77. In fact, it almost ruined them financially. “We did this when we were young. Looking back on it, it was probably kind of dumb,” he says.

Nonetheless, it made their 2,672-square-foot dwelling a quirky landmark, an unconventional outlier amid the monotonous streets of traditional suburban homes off Western Avenue. “It’s all curves and arches and 30-foot ceilings,” Garfinkle says. “Most people looking at it from the outside think it’s a very dark house, but it’s anything but. There’s a pond inside the house and skylights. It’s very bright and cheerful.”

Unfortunately, a listing on Estately does not show the indoor pond but does reveal many of the homes other (ahem) unique features. Here’s your chance to live in a home featured on Roadside America.
