About This Home
As of July 2026Welcome to 8703 Reading Road, a beautifully maintained cottage-styled rambler offering the ease of one-level living in an unbeatable Silver Spring location. This charming home features three spacious bedrooms, each with its own private ensuite bathroom, plus an additional half bath for guests. Inside, you'll find freshly painted interiors, hardwood floors throughout, and a thoughtful layout designed for both everyday living and entertaining. A cozy sitting room off the main living area provides the perfect space for a home office or quiet retreat. The bright three-season room (**not included in square footage of home!**) offers an ideal spot to enjoy your morning coffee while overlooking the lush backyard. Outside, mature landscaping, blooming fig trees, and abundant greenery create a private oasis. The fully fenced backyard features two patios, making it perfect for hosting gatherings or relaxing outdoors. A backyard shed with electricity provides excellent storage or workshop potential. Recent improvements include attic re-insulation (2025), crawl space encapsulation (2025), and a new washer and dryer (2025). Located just steps from Sligo Creek's trails and parkland, this home also offers easy access to downtown Silver Spring's restaurants, shops, and entertainment. The future Purple Line Manchester Place Station will be just moments away, adding even more convenience and connectivity. This is a rare opportunity to enjoy spacious one-level living, modern updates, and an exceptional location all in one.
