About This Home
Come enjoy this picturesque beauty with an inviting covered front porch, leading to a totally lovely collection of bright, comfortable spaces. This circa 1920 home has been extensively renovated over the years, blending timeless charm with modern convenience. This stately five-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath residence spans four finished levels, showcasing exceptional architectural details, including custom millwork, hardwood floors, updated lighting, and a completely redesigned chef’s kitchen and dining area.
The welcoming foyer features a powder room and leads to a light-filled living room with recessed lighting. The open dining room seamlessly connects to the kitchen, the living room, and the rear patio, creating a wonderful flow for entertaining. A modern chandelier adds character, while new sliding doors provide direct access to the backyard and stone patio. The thoughtfully designed kitchen includes honed stone counters, an island with a built-in wine rack and butcher block cutting board, a professional-grade Wolf six-burner gas range with matching exhaust hood, floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, a built-in spice rack, pendant and recessed lighting, and a convenient desk area.
The second level offers three bedrooms and two updated bathrooms, including the spacious primary suite with a modern ceiling fan, a versatile office / walk-in closet, and a private bath. The renovated primary bathroom features porcelain tile flooring, an oversized vanity, and a glass-enclosed shower with glass tile accents.
The bright and adaptable third level can serve as a bedroom, playroom, or additional living space. This floor features front and rear-facing Palladian windows and exceptional eaves storage.
The lower level includes a bonus room with recessed lighting, two storage rooms, a laundry area, and a workshop. Additionally, the basement is equipped with a waterproofing system for added durability and peace of mind. The fenced backyard is a serene outdoor retreat with a flagstone patio, a covered front porch, a stone pathway, and a detached garage with a shared driveway.
The prime location, just steps to numerous new restaurants, shops and farmer’s market, is also close to the municipal library and community center and just blocks from schools K-8, all while being less than half a mile from Takoma Metro. This home is ideally positioned near both downtowns - Takoma Park and Silver Spring - and several local parks. Experience the vibrant energy and eclectic charm of Takoma Park while enjoying the convenience of easy access to shopping, dining, and transportation. See you there!
