It is rare that as a realtor, that I encounter a home as loved as this one. The technical details of a 5 bedroom, 3 bath fully renovated home with incredible upgrades is easy to share. I felt it is important to hear what the owner's love about this home! "A LOVE LETTER ABOUT THIS BEAUTIFUL HOME AND COMMUNITY" As told by the current owners: It is hard to put into words all that we love about our house on Wells Parkway, a place that has brought us joy and comfort since the moment we stepped through the door. From the minute we first saw it, we knew it was something special. Having purchased the house from the original owners, who cherished it for nearly 63 years, we were immediately impressed by the thoughtful updates they made, including a second-floor addition and a sunroom that enhances the living space. The care and attention to detail in maintaining this home were evident, and it truly felt like a place where we could grow and create lasting memories. An unexpected opportunity has us moving, so we’re putting this special place on the market for the next owner(s) to make their own memories here! Among the things we love about this house is the intuitive layout. It flows naturally from the front door to the back door and everywhere in between. We have made several modern updates to maximize utility, function, and comfort while preserving the home’s original charm. The arched doorways add an elegant touch, and the living room is both spacious and cozy – especially when warmed by the fireplace. The upstairs bedrooms get beautiful morning light and the light at the end of the day brings a special charm to evenings on the porch. The backyard is a true oasis, perfect for entertaining. We’ve hosted BBQs, bonfires, and outdoor movie nights, all with plenty of space for friends and family. The newly installed six-foot privacy fence creates a serene atmosphere, making it feel like your own private park. The location is also perfect, right in the heart of University Park. Just steps away from the elementary school and a new playground, it’s located on a quiet cul-de-sac with no houses directly across the street. It’s easy to enjoy leisurely walks down tree-lined streets, surrounded by nature, while being just minutes away from a wealth of amenities. We can walk to the Hyattsville Crossing metro station, and with the Purple Line scheduled to stop nearby soon, there will be even more access to the DMV region. We can also walk to Riverdale Park Station (Whole Foods, Burtons, Denizens, Gold’s Gym, etc.), the new College Park development (Trader Joes, etc.), the movie theater, the newly renovated Hyattsville Branch library, the local recreation center, and the University of Maryland in minutes. There are dozens of restaurants and multiple gyms a short walk or drive away. Overall, this house represents the perfect combination: an incredible house in an amazing location. We know you will love it as much as we have! As told by Jeff, the realtor: This home features an enormous lot, beautiful upgrades to include very high-end windows, a beautiful new kitchen, gut renovated and updated bathrooms with designer touches, a new privacy fence, new HVAC systems (dual), a permeable paver driveway that is not only gorgeous but environmentally friendly. This is by far the nicest driveway you will ever encounter. New black gutters to match the windows, a new heavy up to 200-amp service, an updated laundry room and fully updated basement. Hardwood floors were added where previously only carpet. You have 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and the most beautiful turnkey home you could ever want. This home has been loved, improved and is ready for the next owner(s).
