About This Home

As of June 2025

Welcome to 7001 Sycamore Ave: a radiant Takoma Park gem that blends timeless character with thoughtful updates, all nestled within an extraordinary garden setting! Perched on a lush corner lot at Sycamore and Beech Ave, one of the most sought-after locations in town, this enchanting stucco home , with its single-level layout and garden setting, evokes the feel of a sunny California Ranch home with a touch of French countryside charm, especially while dining under the vine-draped pergola surrounded by blooming roses and lush plantings. Just steps from Takoma’s best spots like TPSS Co-op, Cielo Rojo, Spring Mill, Soko Butcher, parks, playgrounds, and neighborhood schools, the home offers effortless access to everything while feeling like a private retreat.
Inside, the sun-filled layout flows gracefully across one level. The living room stuns with vaulted ceilings, oversized windows, and a wood-burning fireplace. Original details like glass block, preserved hardware, and a unique sunken Art Deco-style shower in the guest bath add charm and history, while the updated kitchen offers fresh style with new counters, backsplash, sink, faucet, and flooring.
The primary suite features wraparound windows that immerse you in garden views and an updated ensuite with beautiful tilework and a generous closet space. Two additional bedrooms offer flexibility for guests, workspace, or extra living space.
But what truly sets this home apart is the incredible outdoor space. A pergola-covered patio wrapped in climbing roses, complete with a ceiling fan and cafe lights - lives like an open-air room, ideal for alfresco meals, morning coffee, or wine under the stars. The surrounding yard is a pollinator’s paradise, with layers of native perennials and a flourishing vegetable garden that will convey with the home.
Tucked just beyond the main garden is a charming potting shed that feels straight out of an English countryside scene, featuring a stained glass window, space for all your tools, or the potential to repurpose it as a serene outdoor workspace or artist’s studio.
With a rare combination of style, soul, and setting, plus a vibrant, welcoming community 7001 Sycamore Ave is a special kind of Takoma Park home. The kind people wait for.
