Welcome to your next chapter in the highly sought-after Forest Knolls community! This rock-solid, 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath split-level home has been lovingly maintained by the current family since Dec 1963 and is move-in ready with thoughtful updates throughout.

The welcoming foyer features tile flooring and a convenient hall closet, guiding you into the spacious living and dining room area—perfect for entertaining or relaxing.
The recently refreshed kitchen is a standout with new stainless steel appliances, a brand-new cooktop, WilsonArt Solid Surfaces Countertops, and solid wood cabinetry offering excellent counter and storage space.
Upstairs, you’ll find brand-new carpeting throughout the hallway and bedrooms, a fully updated hall bath, and a generous primary suite complete with a private bath and plenty of closet space. Two additional spacious bedrooms round out the upper level—each offering ample natural light and storage.
Head downstairs to enjoy a large family room with fresh carpet and a cedar closet for extra storage. The lower level also features a laundry/utility room and a newly updated half bath.
Outside, you'll love the private driveway, and large fenced-in backyard—ideal for gatherings, gardening, or simply relaxing outdoors.

With three Red Line Metro stops within five miles and quick access to I-495, Rt. 29, and Rt. 97, commuting to Baltimore, D.C., or Northern Virginia is a breeze.
