Has the pandemic got you pining for an overseas get-away? This wonderful colonial, (Takoma Park schools despite the Silver Spring address) full of style and custom details by the artist-owner will make you feel you are on holiday all year round! Bumped out in the front and rear to give just that extra amount of space you need, with a spa bath and sauna opening to a three-season riot of blooming flowers and cozy outdoor spaces, you might not ever need to leave! Rustic front porch and entry addition features hand hewn maple posts, copper roof, gutters, and rain cups. Seriously, where do you ever see these posts except on vacation houses in Hawaii?? Enter into the ever so practical foyer with heated ceramic tile floor, built-in storage bench, huge coat closet and Anderson casement awning style windows. The living room features a Vermont Castings wood stove with a charming antique mantle and corbels, porcelain tile hearth and stainless exterior chimney. Two oversized Anderson awning style casement windows really brighten the space. The open kitchen /dining combination will steal your heart: farmhouse style custom wood cabinets with forged iron hardware, hand crafted plaster-work stove hood with antique corbels, huge free standing antique center island, Sub-Zero fridge with custom barn wood door and forged handles. The walls feature custom faux-plaster antique finishes. You'll feel you are in Tuscany or Provence! The dining area features a box bay window seat bump out- with storage and barn wood detail above. Such a fun space! And there is more: the kitchen leads to a rear bump out mudroom with faux-plaster wall finishes, (you are back in Italy!) washer/dryer hookups, and a luxurious spa-bath and sauna! This space features heated porcelain tile floors, river rock tile floor flowing from shower, and a fabulous French casement window that opens with no divider for total communing with nature. Outdoor views + spa bath + sauna =staycation! Don't miss the custom twig rail at the back door entry to the mudroom. Upstairs are 3 sweet bedrooms with refinished hardwood floors, and a renovated hall bath with stylish black and white geometric tile floor, new sink vanity and toilet. The lower level family room has new faux wood-look porcelain tile floors and a wall of cedar lined closets and built in drawers . Pull down steps to attic, outdoor shed. Great location in that unique part of Takoma Park that the PO thinks is Silver Spring, but the City of TP claims for their own. (Takoma Park schools despite the Silver Spring 20910 address). Convenient to both downtown SS and Old Town Takoma park and both SS and TP Metros.
