About This Home

As of August 2019

Same owner for 50 years! Great spaces in this Shepherd Park home in perfect location just off of 16th Street. Just blocks from downtown Silver Spring and Metro in one direction and Rock Creek Park in the other. Large formal rooms with a mid-century vibe. 3 bedrooms on the main level plus a sunroom. Lower level features a large open family room with built-in bar and 2nd kitchen...plus a forth bedroom with outside entrance. A one-car side load garage and a nicely sized yard all on a quiet block. Pull up the carpet to reveal lovely hardwood floors and update to your taste. Priced for the condition and a great way to get into the Shepherd Park neighborhood.
