About This Home

As of July 2022

This delightful All Brick 1938 Colonial with a slate roof and side window mansards will surprise you with its size (2650 square feet over 3 levels per an appraisal measurement), warmth, and grace. Nine-foot ceilings, shiny wood floors, and a wood-burning living room fireplace make for an irresistible appeal. The huge dining room will make you the favorite to host family events with bright sunny windows, crown molding, and room for a table for 10. The updated kitchen has lots of super white cabinets, yards of granite countertops, an attractive tile floor, a breakfast bar, and recent stainless appliances. The grey granite counters are expansive and contrast well with white cabinets and black and white tiled floors. There's a front porch for sheltered entry and a rear sunroom/den with 1/2 bathroom and room for a breakfast table overlooking the garden. The windows have been recently replaced with modern energy-efficient solar zone glass (low E/Argon filled). Upstairs 3 well-sized bedrooms and two bathrooms all sport beautiful wood floors. The bathrooms are tastefully updated throughout. On the Lower Level, a large carpeted Recreation Room has a den off it that may be used as a Guest Bedroom, and there's a remodeled bathroom here too! The separate laundry and storage room with a rear exit makes for more convenience. Economical gas-fired radiator central heating is featured-great for allergy sufferers. Central Air Conditioning is featured (not on the cooler basement level). The sellers are offering a one-year Home Warranty from Cinch to the buyer that is good for one year from the settlement. The two-tiered fenced rear garden is great for entertaining with a large flagstone patio with an outdoor fireplace insert, flower beds with hydrangeas and winter hazel, with room for a picnic table. There's a super fountain water feature (see video of it) that makes this garden pretty unique. The sellers have recently spent over $10,000 on landscaping upgrades including perennial plants, hardscaping, and lighting. There's a deck off the sun/mudroom and the upper tier has room for games and fun and all surrounded by a fence for security. A large 3/4 car deep driveway (shared but wide enough for two cars) leads to a charming garage. You are just 0.7 of a mile from Takoma Metro Station and a short stroll from the City Library, and Town Hall with a myriad of activities. Schools, the Takoma Cooperative and Silver Spring Whole Foods are all close by. Street parking is allowed in front of the house and the road is wide here. You will be amazed at how roomy and full of character this home is and its super location. This is a not to be missed home!
