About This Home

As of October 2024

$20K price improvement! Come home to this amazing opportunity in Kensington - all of the charm but tucked away on a quiet street away from the congestion of Downtown! Located on an oversized corner lot, this 1950s split is surprisingly spacious, with 4 above-grade bedrooms and lots of open living space. The main level has beautiful original hardwood flooring throughout the living and dining rooms and features an open kitchen with updated appliances, perfect for everyday living.

Both upstairs and downstairs you will find four generously sized bedrooms, two up from the main level and two down, and each bedroom level has a full bathroom. Closets have custom built-ins for maximum use of space, plus hall linen closets for extra storage.

The lower level has a fully finished family room, complete with a powder bath, laundry center with a full-sized stacked washer and dryer and a walk-up stairwell to the rear yard. Don't miss the extra lower level bonus room that is perfect for a yoga studio or home gym.

You will have plenty of off-street parking for family and friends with an oversized driveway and a detached two-car garage! The rear yard is also recently fenced and has lovely stone patios in both the front and rear.

Enjoy all that the local (voluntary) Rock Creek Palisades Association has to offer - neighborhood fall fest coming up on October 5th! The home is also located just a few blocks to all in-zone schools and less than two miles from area favorites such as The Dish & Dram, Stella Point Grille and Strosnider's Hardware.
