About This Home

As of August 2025

Location, convenience, community, and move-in ready! Welcome to 7007 Poplar Ave, a charming single-family Cape located in the Historic District of Takoma Park MD. Nestled in a sought-after neighborhood appreciated for its proximity to the conveniences of downtown Takoma Park, this move-in ready home offers approximately 1,600 square feet of finished living space, including four legal bedrooms and three full bathrooms, ideal for comfortable living. This delightful 1947 brick home maintains its Takoma Park charm, including hardwood floors, hand-crafted marble window sills, and a wood-burning fireplace; yet it has been upgraded to ensure peace of mind, cost efficiency, and flexible use. This is no fixer-upper – you can move right in!

On the main level, large east-facing windows let in the morning light. Upstairs, dormer windows provide additional illumination. The living/dining room is illuminated by recessed LED lighting, creating an inviting ambiance for both relaxation and entertaining. Cozy up by the fire on cold winter nights. An updated kitchen with a pantry leads out to a rear deck. You’ll enjoy gas cooking and stainless steel appliances as well as a deep farm sink and lovely wood cabinets. And the entire house is cooled by central A/C and a new energy efficient Ecobee thermostat.

The basement offers a fully licensed ADU studio apartment built in 2024 with an updated full bath and a modern kitchenette plus a private entrance. Offset mortgage payments by utilizing it as a short or long term rental or use it for guests, au pairs, or even as an office! The lower level also includes 600 SF of additional functional space that can be finished and would be perfect for a home gym, recreational area, or storage. The space features high ceilings and an egress window plus two separate rear doors.

The front hedges and deep, wooded backyard offer privacy, while the deck and surrounding grassy area are ideal for outdoor activities, gatherings, gardening, and relaxation.
The driveway has capacity for multiple vehicles and convenient access to the front door as well as the lower-level entrance. Walk to community parks, playgrounds, Cielo Rojo, TPSS Co-op, local schools and more!

Don’t miss out on this rare opportunity to own a turn-key 4BR 3BA in Historic Takoma Park with ample indoor- and outdoor-living possibilities, at this price point. Let’s make this house your home!
