Surprisingly spacious, classic all-brick Cape on a quiet street in a park-like setting overlooking Long Branch Creek. Lovely chef's kitchen, expansive living room with working fireplace, three good sized bedrooms, and bonus kitchen and full bath plus large family room on lower level with walkout to rear patio. Quiet, close-in neighborhood convenient to both downtown Silver Spring and Takoma Park. Wrap-around yard replete with lush landscaping including many native plants. Enter the main level into the foyer. The main level features hardwood floors throughout. On your right you’ll find a large living room with a mantel/wood burning fireplace, multiple windows, and French door leading to a sunroom/office with a newer bay window overlooking your tranquil oasis. On your left is the open concept dining room and kitchen, flowing back to a recent wooden slider that opens to the rear deck overlooking Long Branch Creek park. From the rear deck, steps lead down to a hardscaped patio, a large shed, and a grassy yard with lots of room to garden and play. Walk around the corner for easy access to Long Branch hiker/biker trails. Carpeted steps lead to the upper level where you’ll find an updated bathroom and three good-sized bedrooms, all with hardwood floors. The primary bedroom has windows on three sides, dual closets and is flooded with natural light. Across the hall you’ll find a second bedroom with windows on two sides and a large closet. The third bedroom, built above the garage, has windows on three sides, built in bureaus and is surprisingly large. Attic with pulldown stairs for oodles of storage! Lower level includes a bonus kitchen and laundry/utility area with walkout to patio, an updated bathroom with heated tile floor and tub/shower, and a large family room plus bonus room – each with 8’ ceilings. The bonus room could be used for workout space, additional home office, or guest room. Throughout the lower level, built in cabinets and shelving plus a large closet provide ample storage. Potential for independent or semi-independent living space. Attached garage has direct access to the kitchen. Garage and driveway provide plenty of off-street parking. Don't miss this gem!
