About This Home

As of July 2021

8504 Flower Avenue in Takoma Park is an incredibly desirable porch front bungalow, a dream home in a premier Takoma Park location! The spacious front yard is beautifully landscaped and is completely surrounded with a picket-style fence. The airy, light filled home features three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Guests are greeted by the lovely living room, boasting a wonderful brick fireplace, perfect built-ins, and original crown moldings. The well appointed modern kitchen opens to another family/breakfast space, drenched in natural light coming in from the beautiful skylights. From the back windows you can have views of the huge backyard and Sligo Creek Park. Step out to your private back patio—the perfect place for entertaining guests or unwinding after a long day. From there, you can relax in your expansive, peaceful, and fenced-in backyard. The main level offers two sun-lit bedrooms, an extra office/den/nursery, and a full bathroom. Breeze downstairs to the lower level to find a full bedroom, a fully renovated bathroom, and a large storage area. Finally, the attic is an extra bonus! The possibilities are endless here- another family room, playroom, office, guest bedroom, and more! What completes this offering is the extra long driveway that fits three cars and a covered garage space for extra storage if needed. Just moments to Sligo Creek park, Long Branch-Garland Park, creeks, playgrounds, shops and restaurants, not to mention the future purple line, Silver Spring, and a short drive to DC, 8504 Flower Avenue is an opportunity you do not want to miss!
