Centrally located in Takoma, DC this classic, Craftsman-style home delivers modern finishes but exudes historic charm. The inviting front porch welcomes you to the home and offers a quiet spot for relaxing on a fall afternoon. Upon entering the home, you will notice the beams of natural light from the abundant windows in the living room, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace. Warm wood moldings and original hardwood floors lead you to the spacious dining room and the completely renovated kitchen. Stone countertops and a gorgeous backsplash flank both sides and modern appliances create a space that is both functional and beautiful. Also on the main level, you will find three spacious bedrooms (make one a home office!), a nicely refinished full bathroom, and laundry area. Original hardwood floors continue throughout the home. Upstairs you will find the massive owners' suite complete with multiple closets, additional space for exercise or home office and a gorgeous bathroom with dual vanities, clawfoot tub and a standing stone shower. The large basement space offers plenty of room for storage (with additional washer and dryer) or room to expand the living space. Updated appliances, fresh paint and brand new heating and air conditioning are among the many improvements made to the home. Escape the city or find your inner gardener in the newly fenced backyard with a separate garage for one vehicle. The location of this home is unparalleled! In a matter of minutes you can enjoy the shops, farmer's market and restaurants of downtown Takoma Park (0.7 miles), Red Line Takoma Metro (0.4 miles), downtown Silver Spring (1.4 miles), and the upcoming Parks at Walter Reed (0.4 miles), anchored by Whole Foods (expected 2022). Open house, Sunday, October 25th from 1-4pm. Offers due Tuesday, 10/27 at noon.
