Silver Spring Park mixes history with natural scenery
It’s fitting that the word ‘park’ is in the name of the Silver Spring Park neighborhood. With manicured gardens in spacious lawns, fully grown trees and porches to enjoy the view, this neighborhood feels like a woodland getaway. Silver Spring Park preserves the lifestyle of the classic suburb with its midcentury houses, where kids can bike down the street, neighbors fly flags out front to show off their favorite sports teams and seasonal decorations festoon porches on every block. Adding to the picturesque feel of this DC suburb is the diversity of its residents and its strong community spirit. “Everyone is welcome,” says Natalie Perez, a real estate agent with The Phoenix Group of Compass. Community events are always going on, especially in any one of the neighborhood’s numerous parks, she notes.

Housing ranges from condos to upscale contemporary homes
Residents of Silver Spring Park prefer to live here because the homes are not “cookie cutter,” Perez says. The houses are quaint and charming, and people who move intend to stay in the neighborhood, she emphasizes. Older homes in the area, often renovated, date to the mid-20th Century, with Cape Cods, Colonials, Tudors and spacious split-level styles. The median price for a single-family home runs around $665,000, but new contemporary-style homes, especially with multiple bedrooms, can run north of $1 million. For an economical choice, there are also numerous town house complexes in Silver Spring Park; the median price for this style sits around $400,000. Condos provide another option. Two-bedroom condos can start at $150,000, while three-bedrooms can range from $200,000 to $375,000. The price of the condo can depend on its proximity to the city.
