Completely transformed with a full second-story addition and a top-to-bottom renovation, this exceptional bungalow on one of Takoma Park’s most cherished streets seamlessly blends timeless charm with high-end, modern living. Tucked on tree-lined Sherman Avenue and crafted by owners who know kitchens inside and out (literally—local restaurateurs!), the heart of this home is a designer chef’s kitchen featuring Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, custom cabinetry, artisan tile, and an oversized butcher block island built for gathering. The main level flows effortlessly from sunny living and dining spaces to a French-doored office or additional bedroom, and another set of french doors opening out to a backyard oasis. Upstairs, three bedrooms and two full baths await, including a jaw-dropping primary suite with soaring cathedral ceilings, a boutique-sized walk-in closet, and a spa-like bath with a massive walk-in shower. Natural light pours in through oversized windows, enhancing the thoughtful design throughout. The fully finished lower level offers incredible versatility—use it as a guest suite, in-law or au pair space, or generate income with a private rental. Complete with a bedroom, full bath, kitchenette, gym area, and ample storage, it’s truly a home within a home. Outdoors, you'll find lush, mature landscaping, raised garden beds, a flagstone path, and multiple spots to relax or entertain—plus a wide front porch perfect for morning coffee or catching up with neighbors. All this just blocks from the Takoma Metro, Farmers Market, Spring Mill Bakery, the Co-op, new library, and beloved spots like Takoma Bev Co. This is the best of Takoma Park—community, character, and convenience—wrapped in one beautifully reimagined home.
