About This Home
As of May 2025This delightful home offers extraordinary opportunity in Silver Spring. 1213 Forest Glen Road is a luxurious and spacious 5-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home, designed with comfort, elegance, and functionality in mind. The tiered, flowering front garden reflects the home's location steps from Sligo Creek Park, and provides the first hint at the peaceful sanctuary that awaits. Inside, a cozy fireplace surrounded by a beautiful travertine hearth is the focal point of the living room, complemented by large windows that bring natural light into the space throughout the day. The living room also features built-in bookcases and direct access to the rear deck, adding even more space for indoor-outdoor entertaining. Adjacent to the living area is a spacious dining room, the perfect spot for hosting family or larger dinner parties. The one-of-a-kind kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring top-of-line appliances including ILVE range, ample cabinet space, extra large fridge and freezer, and custom hammered copper sink. Main level also includes a powder room, mudroom with laundry and pantry, and sunny main level bedroom/office/den with full bath. Pristine hardwood floors , recessed lighting, and beautiful trim throughout. Walk upstairs to a bright, skylit central hall, four generously sized bedrooms and bright hall bathroom with its own skylight and tub. The primary suite is a relaxing retreat, complete with a walk-in closet, second large closet with storage system, large windows, Juliet balcony that overlooks the rear gardens, multi-speaker surround sound, and en-suite luxury bath. Partially finished lower level is a wide open blank canvas for your use. The bright, finished room is perfect for use as an additional bedroom, office or artist studio, with full light windows and walkout access to the side courtyard and rear yard. Outside, the front and rear gardens are true highlights. The front porch is the peaceful and social spot for your morning coffee, or choose the adjacent stone patio to be closer to mature flowering gardens.
