About This Home
As of November 2023Here is a unique opportunity to own one of the original English Victorian cottages of Washington Grove, "A town within a forest." Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the town is known for its architecture and picturesque settings. In 1873, camp meetings began with 240 tents. Shortly after that, the first cottages were built. Today, the incorporated and self-governed town is sprawling with activities. Residents meet for musical picnics at the Gazebo and town meetings in McCathran Hall. They swim in Maple Lake and conduct Summer-in-the-Park programs for children. Other activities going on in town are book clubs, movie clubs, concerts, and festivals like the recent Fall Festival showcasing regional artisans and artists.
The current owner has created a comfortable modern living yet managed to conserve the original building's style and charm. The works include a new foundation with drains and a sump pump keeping it dry, a three-zone air conditioning system, insulated walls and floors, and a new roof installed a few years ago. The porches are adding outdoor living areas. A recently renovated kitchen, a new bath, and an open floor plan make this one a winner. The new shed stores bikes and garden tools. The home was originally a two-bedroom unit; however, it is currently configured as a one-bedroom loft with a sitting area. The seller will reinstall the pocket doors if a future owner wants to return the structure to a two-bedroom home.
The home sits on a cul-de-sac, just a stone's throw from the town hall. The location is a commuter's dream, with the MARC train, the Shady Grove Metro, I-270, I-370, and the Inter-County-Connector nearby.
Why not live in your vacation home all year round? This is a must-see, and it will not last long.
