About This Home

As of April 2025

Welcome to 522 Dartmouth Avenue, your urban oasis! This beautifully maintained brick colonial is set on a generous lot, just a few blocks from the lively shopping and dining scene of downtown Silver Spring. Bathed in natural light, this home offers a traditional floor plan with exceptional living spaces. The main level boasts a living room with a wood-burning fireplace, a formal dining room, and a sunlit knotty-pine breakfast room off the kitchen. An additional living room, perfect for a home office or main level bedroom, and a powder room complete the entry level. Original hardwood floors and period details are featured throughout the home. The upper-level features three spacious bedrooms (no closet-sized rooms here!) and a full bathroom. The bright finished lower level offers an extra living area, laundry, a powder room, and two large storage areas. Outside, manicured landscaping surrounds the brick patio, leading to a vast, flat landscaped backyard. Additional features include a built-in storage shed at the rear and a front driveway. Nearby amenities include the upcoming Dale Drive stop on the Purple Line, Whole Foods just 0.5 miles away, and numerous shops, dining, and entertainment options. With easy access to Sligo Creek Trail and local schools, 522 Dartmouth Avenue is a true gem!
