About This Home

As of October 2024

Welcome to 1724 Tamarack Street NW, a stunning northeast facing mid-century modern split-foyer home nestled in the serene historic treelined street of the North Portal Estates neighborhood of Colonial Village.

Step inside to be greeted with an open concept living, dining, and kitchen area, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The spacious kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances. The focal point of the kitchen is the large island, which has ample seating and storage.  Sunlight floods this area through the skylight and large windows, enhancing a bright and inviting atmosphere. The dining room area opens up to a charming sunroom with french doors that overlooks the expansive backyard, an ideal spot for morning coffee or evening relaxation.

The main level boasts three generously sized bedrooms, including the luxurious primary bedroom with two closets, one of which is a walk-in, an en-suite bathroom that features a double sink and walk-in shower. The other bedrooms on this floor offer comfort and versatility, each boasting their own unique views of the lush neighborhood surroundings. Gorgeous hardwood floors extend throughout this level and the stairs, adding a touch of elegance and warmth.

Descend to the lower level to find two additional bedrooms, perfect for use as a guest suite, in-law suite, or private quarters for an au pair or caregiver. This level also features a generously sized family room with a gas fireplace, large windows that offer picturesque views of the backyard. Sliding doors provide easy access to the outdoor space, where you'll find a fire pit, raised garden beds brimming with tomatoes and strawberries. Throughout the yard, you will find an array of herbs including habanero, garden salsa pepper, lavender, oregano, thyme, and rosemary. Off the laundry room, there is additional access to the backyard, as well as access to the attached one car garage, which provides secure parking and extra storage.

Situated on the edge of Rock Creek Park and the DC|MD line, this home is just minutes from downtown Silver Spring, Silver Spring Metro, major bus lines, the future purple line, shopping, dining and more. Don't miss the opportunity to own a piece of mid-century modern architectural history in the GEM of a neighborhood that is North Portal Estates - one of Washington, DCs best kept secrets.
