Property Description
Amazing Location! Conveniently located near the Takoma Park Community Center, Farmers’ Market, and the brand-new Takoma Park Library! Welcome to this picturesque tree-top bungalow with a delightful front porch and a detached garage in vibrant and friendly Takoma Park! Built circa 1925, and completely remodeled in 2016, this distinctive property is brimming with charm and features an array of superb architectural details, including exquisite woodwork and Pine flooring, a handsome fireplace, replacement windows, vintage fittings, and charming archways.
Upon entry, there is a ‘drop-zone’ nook that opens to the light-filled living room, which offers a brick fireplace flanked by windows. Beyond the living room is a formal dining room with an archway and the beautifully renovated kitchen. The thoughtfully remodeled kitchen and breakfast room boasts solid surface counters, a stainless-steel appliance suite, handsome cabinetry, a five-burner gas range with a built-in griddle, and excellent prep space. The versatile breakfast room / cozy family room opens to the kitchen and the backyard, providing scenic views.
The main level is complete with two well-proportioned bedrooms with ceiling fans and an updated bathroom. One of the bedrooms offers access to the back deck and yard. Downstairs is a spacious finished recreation room with wood tile flooring and industrial-style lighting, a bedroom with ample natural light, a full bathroom with a vessel sink, and a large laundry room with cabinets and lots of storage space. The basement has undergone extensive waterproofing and comes with a lifetime warranty.
The generously-sized private yard boasts wonderful stone hardscaping, ample space to run about, a brick paver patio, a synthetic deck, a covered front porch, and a detached garage. The perfect location: steps to Old Town and Sligo Creek Park. Just 0.5 miles to the Takoma Metro Station! Enjoy living in eclectic Takoma Park; the location offers all the allure and convenience of this very special area. Relish the warm sense of community as well as ready access to shopping, restaurants, the farmer’s market, and entertainment in both Takoma Park and wonderful, vibrant downtown Silver Spring.
