About This Home
As of April 2024RARE OPPORTUNITY TO OWN THIS ONE-OF-A-KIND CONDO WITH IN-UNIT WASHER/DRYER. THIS IS THE LARGEST 2-BEDROOM FLOOR PLAN IN THE BUILDING AND DOES NOT COME ON THE MARKET OFTEN (ONLY THE 6TH ONE IN 4 YEARS). OVER $50K IN CUSTOMIZED UPGRADES AND RENOVATIONS. WALKING DISTANCE TO DOWNTOWN SILVER SPRING! The love for this spectacular, oversized 2 bedroom/2 bathroom condo is immediately apparent as soon as you walk in the door. For starters, WORRIED ABOUT NOISY NEIGHBORS? THE SELLERS HAVE INSTALLED SOUND-DAMPENING MATERIAL IN THE COMMON WALLS, INCLUDING PRIMARY BEDROOM. Unlike other units in this building, the wall has been taken down between the kitchen and the living & dining space making for a brightly lit, wide open floor plan. LOVE TO COOK? The kitchen has been beautifully updated with stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, quartz counters, new sink and new flooring. Deck off kitchen is perfect for enjoying that morning coffee or a good book. Dining area is adjacent to the kitchen, and leads to spacious family room with large bump out, perfect for an office or play area. Primary bedroom features high-end oak flooring and updated en-suite primary bathroom. This bedroom has its own deck - what's better than waking up on a warm day, walking out on the deck with a great view of downtown Bethesda, and being met by the warm morning sun? In addition, the walk-in closet in this bedroom has been customized with internal shelving units. Lots of storage space! Secondary bedroom is large as well, and the hall bath has also been updated. This home has new lighting throughout, and features Smart Switches off the kitchen and primary bedroom lighting. This is the highly popular MICA building, which was FULLY RENOVATED in 2006. AMAZING location, walking distance to just about everything including Rock Creek Park, Silver Spring Metro (2 blocks), Whole Foods, Regal Cinemas, Fillmore concert hall, many other shops and restaurants. In addition, the Farmers Market takes place on Saturdays and that is walking distance as well, plus there is a community garden where volunteers harvest fresh vegetables for the residents of the building. FABULOUS IN-BUILDING AMENITIES include party room downstairs (with a pool table, TV's, and a wet bar) plus pool and gym. NOTE: This building IS FHA APPROVED, UNIT COMES WITH AN ASSIGNED GARAGE PARKING SPACE AND STORAGE UNIT.
