This 1915 Bungalow design home sits on a large 8100 square foot lot that gives a feeling of privacy and potential to do great things with the yard, especially the rear, which is overgrown, but also very private. This home is sold "as is" but it is livable though with FHA loans a 203k may be preferred. Conventional loans will be fine here. It's move-in ready but you can update and add on as you go along. The main level ceilings are tall and the living and dining rooms are a good size with laminate floors added to what will be wood floors underneath of unknown condition. The windows are large, allowing for good light. There's a main-level bedroom and a full bathroom with a tub/shower and storage space. The kitchen is basic with a stove and refrigerator and will be where you may want to update first. There's a large room off the kitchen that could be a den, 4th bedroom, or even a place to move the kitchen to - allowing for a family room where the kitchen is. Upstairs, 2 bedrooms and one has a den off of it. You could add a 2nd bathroom up here with a little work.
There's off-street parking for 2 or 3 cars on the right side and as the lot is flat and deep you could easily expand the parking to larger configurations. It's easy to park on the street here too.
This location is ideal for a short commute to work in the District of Columbia. It is close to Route 50 and R 295 and has easy access to the University of Maryland.
There's plenty of nearby shopping on Bladensburg Road and a large shopping center anchored by Costco and many national chains at nearby Fort Lincoln.
An interesting historical point is that President Ulysses S. Grant stayed at a summer retreat known as the Friendship House (replaced in the 1940s by a new building) that was located at Parkwood Street and 38th Avenue - 2 doors away from this property. Also, before it was incorporated it was known as Yarrow, for the name of the first Grist Mill of its type between Baltimore and Alexandria, Virginia. The mill acted as a hospital for wounded American militia in the Battle of Bladensburg in the War of 1812 which resulted in the burning of the nation's capital.
Nature walks are close by, with the Northwest Branch Park connecting with the Northeast Branch Park and miles of hiking/biking trails leading into Bladensburg Marina and the "Bike Beltway" around the District of Columbia. It's a short stroll to the Gateway Arts District along Route 1 Rhode Island Avenue and nearby restaurants like Busboys and Poets, Pennyroyal Station, Dodah's Kitchen
This is not quite a Diamond in the Rough, but it's not a Gem either. Just a home that needs some updating to make it pristine, but you can move in now and update it as you decide what to do and when.
A must stop by!
