About This Home
Charming Renovated Craftsman in Prime Takoma Park Location! This STUNNING and beautifully updated Craftsman bungalow is a rare find and blends historic charm with modern upgrades. Thoughtfully renovated in 2017 with an addition and upgrades throughout, the home features restored original woodwork, pocket doors, and moldings, complemented by all-new plumbing, wiring, insulation, and energy-efficient windows/doors. Dual-zone HVAC and a tankless gas water heater ensure year-round comfort. The custom kitchen boasts granite counters, GE Cafe appliances, a Wolf gas cooktop, and a hidden walk-in pantry behind a Murphy bookshelf. A flexible main-level office doubles as a guest room with a built-in Murphy bed. Upstairs offers a spacious primary suite with walk-in closet and luxe bath, plus two more generously sized bedrooms, a shared full bath, laundry, and ample storage—including a 7' x 24' storage room.
The basement features recessed lighting, a partially finished flex room, built-in shelving, and workshop potential. Outside, enjoy a private fenced yard with slate patio, built-in outdoor kitchen, fire pit, and sun/shade balance perfect for gardening or play.
Other highlights include a 2023 front porch renovation, security system, driveway parking, and recent WSSC utility upgrades.
All this is just over a mile to Takoma Metro, near a future Purple Line stop, Sligo Creek trails, and the upcoming Takoma Park redevelopment—offering walkable access to parks, shops, restaurants, and transit.
