Enchanting all brick colonial with a slate roof that backs to the Long Branch Park! Enjoy magical mornings on the expansive rear deck sipping coffee, and delighting in the tree view with a book in hand! Your dog will love you for buying here - walk straight onto the trail from your back yard! Recently beautifully renovated to add a 3rd bedroom and 2nd bathroom, this house is a gem inside the Beltway. A delightful Bay Window in the Living Room brings the winter light flooding in that makes the short days fun! Hardwood floors throughout, newly installed tankless water heater, expansive deck off the kitchen, and many more features! There's a separate dining area off the kitchen - expand in the future here! The basement is fabulous with really beautiful recent bathroom and bedroom with direct access to the rear garden. The rear garden has so many possibilities being nicely fenced (keeping the deer out and your pets in) and it has plenty of room for additional perennial plantings as you plan your garden. Enjoy beautiful Fall colors from nearby mature trees! This home is just 2 minutes by car and a 9-minute walk from the future Purple Line Station coming to Piney Branch Road and Arliss Street and currently scheduled to open in the Fall of 2023 (now under construction). It's also a short ride from downtown Takoma Metro Station and downtown historic Takoma Park neighborhood with many restaurants, farmers market and other attractions. International shopping is nearby at Takoma-Langley shopping center, while the University of Maryland and downtown Silver Spring are both just a short drive away. The Beltway is easily accessible off University Boulevard (route 193), leading to many travel options. Local buses are plentiful on Piney Branch and Flower Avenues. The Elementary School is a short distance. Economical gas heating and electric Central Air conditioning are enjoyed here. This is a home that brings delights in so many ways and makes for great entertaining, quiet living and private moments. Nature lovers and health enthusiasts enjoy the park trail behind! Don't wait on this hard to find location!
