About This Home
As of September 2025Major Price Improvement – Now $75,000 Below Original Listing! This beautifully renovated Colonial offers outstanding value, thoughtful upgrades, and classic charm—all just two blocks from the DC line and minutes to multiple Metro stations. The home features a 2016 rebuilt Eco roof with a 99-year warranty, along with newer vinyl siding, gutters, and downspouts . Enjoy the inviting full-width covered front porch perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Inside, you’ll find refinished hardwood floors throughout, 9-foot ceilings, and original wood trim that speaks to the home’s character. The open living and dining area flows effortlessly into a bright addition on the side of the house with six windows for abundant natural light. The second bedroom is spacious and versatile, and all light fixtures have been updated throughout the home. The entire interior has been freshly painted. The fully renovated hall bath features designer tile flooring, a tub/shower combo with designer tile surround, pedestal sink, updated lighting, and a modern toilet. The kitchen is both stylish and functional, with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances (all serviced under a Home Warranty since 2016), a four-burner gas stove, built-in microwave, double stainless steel sink, dishwasher, under-counter remote puck lights, wainscoting, and a ceiling fan. A pantry area just off the kitchen has a hook up for future washer and dryer (Washer and dryer are currently in the basement area). A rear door leads to a private deck overlooking a landscaped, shaded backyard with herb garden, open side yard, and excellent privacy. Upstairs, the finished attic serves as a spacious primary suite with recessed lighting, hardwood floors, and a luxurious full bath featuring a 5-foot soaking tub, pedestal sink, and designer tile. The dry, unfinished basement is a rare find—professionally waterproofed in 2015 equipped with two sump pumps (one installed in 2023, the other in 2024), plus a 2025 continuous-run backup battery. No known water intrusion or mold makes this basement ideal for wine storage, beer brewing, or hobby workspace with cool, consistent 24/7 temperatures. The home also features a 2024 hot water heater, electric heating with central air, a gas furnace, and attached garage with interior access and a side door to the yard. Enjoy a highly desirable location: approximately 1 mile to West Hyattsville Metro, 2.5 miles to Rhode Island Ave Metro, and 3 miles to Fort Totten. You’re also just 2 miles to the Anacostia Watershed trails and recreation, 3.5 miles to University Park, and minutes to Hyattsville, College Park, Catholic University, and the Basilica. This is a turnkey home offering modern systems, timeless finishes, and unbeatable proximity to DC and transit—now at a significant price reduction. A true value you don’t want to miss!
