Easy access to downtown Silver Spring as well. Enter from the spacious front porch with original porch swing into an open living and dining area. Tall ceilings, large windows, crown molding with dentil details, and beautiful original hardwood floors contribute to the warm and inviting feel.

The large family room offers flexibility as well, with space enough for family TV viewing plus a separate conversation space or kids play area. Off the family room is a wonderful screened porch with an exterior deck for grilling. You will live out here! A main floor bedroom and colorful full bath complete this level .Upstairs you will find 2 large bedrooms, a flex room playroom/nursery or office, and the bright hall bath. There is attic access for storage on this level.

There is a jetted tub and separate stall shower for delux pampering!The lower level includes a finished playroom and a half bath. The utility area is large and unfinished. A detached garage and very long driveway with parking pad turn-around space make for extreme convenience. The flat backyard is partially fenced.
