About This Home

As of August 2025

Pride-of-ownership is evident in this one-owner home, located several blocks from the Y, schools, Waldorf & pool. The front of the house faces a cul-de-sac & the back yard abuts a private drive...there's very little street noise. A stamped-concrete patio, sheltered on 3 sides, provides an area in which to entertain or relax. The patio overlooks a secluded back yard which offers perennial gardens & space to play! Exterior updates include shingles (2023), tilt-in windows in the original house (2015), & FR windows (2010). Inside the home, buyers will appreciate the white cabinets which feature P/O shelving, soft-close doors & drawers, & a pantry cabinet. Newer SS appliances are included! The ML has both a LR & a FR. The FR, large enough to accommodate a TV area & a dining set, provides a view of the back yard & wild life through banks of windows on 3 walls. There are 3 BRS on the ML. One of the BR closets is plumbed for a W & D...perfect for buyers who prefer one-level living! A large vanity & a cabinet provide storage in the full bath. A 4'x5' walk-in hall closet offers an in area in which to keep linens, bath supplies, a vacuum, etc., organized & out of sight.
