    What's special

    New Price for our New Buyers! First time on market in 50 years. Sitting at the top of DC's diamond in beloved Shepherd Park where tree-lined streets have garden names. There’s just something about this 1940's South-facing brick bungalow that leaves a lasting impression. Nestled along idyllic Geranium Street this 3-story home glows with natural light, updated character, and ability to make it your own. Completely unassuming from the outside, just beyond the bay front windows, you'll find over 4100 sq ft of living space. In total, this home features plenty of rooms to relax in and recharge, including 5BR’s, 3BA’s renovated in 2023, such as the first-floor porcelain tile bath with double shower, herringbone floors, and dual vanity. Original and refinished heart pine hardwoods finally make their debut after decades of preservation. The sizable kitchen is a chef’s delight, the previous owner had a penchant for baking and cooking, double wall ovens, SS appliances, and white kitchen cabinetry add to its appeal. Upstairs includes two large bedrooms, full bath, and room to easily expand over existing footprint. Full-sized attic space offers additional storage and further imagination for a future build out. Finally, the fully finished lower level with impressive 8 ft ceiling height throughout, windows in every room, rear outside entrance, and huge rec room, or soon to be playroom, theatre room, or new home gym to peloton the days away. The other side of the space includes a full bath, 5th BR, offering flexible living such as an Au-Pair/In-Law suite or income producing Airbnb. Outside you'll find a large back porch, fully fenced in backyard, gardens for plantings, outdoor living for memorable moments, and detached garage. Location is paramount, everything you need minutes away, including Rock Creek Park, downtown Silver Spring, a brand new Whole Foods opening this Summer, and the upcoming 66-acre Parks at Walter Reed just two blocks away. The Great Lawn already hosts Summer Jazz in the Park, biweekly outdoor yoga classes, salsa dancing, and much more.
