This bright, spacious, quintessentially "Takoma Park" home is a breath of fresh air. Expanded from the original Bungalow, the home features a smartly integrated rear addition. The result is a home that flows and functions perfectly for modern needs, but retains the charm and character of the original 1918 home. As you enter the home, the original wooden banister, mouldings, hardwood flooring, and fireplace set the tone. The home is full of light and color, with elegant french blue trim, a blue dining area with crystal chandelier, and creamy white family room at the rear. The kitchen is large and smartly arranged to include an eat-in area, tons of storage space, and a half bath is cleverly tucked in across from additional closets and storage. Every nook and cranny of this home offers something a little bit different and special. As you travel upstairs, the central bedroom at the top of the stairs is large enough to fit a king sized bed if desired. Painted in a lovely warm beige-pink, this room feels intimate and cozy despite its size. There is a generous closet... but step further and there is a "secret" additional closet tucked into the eves of the home... The perfect place for extra storage... Or the reading and play nook of your dreams! The front bedroom offers additional storage and another "secret" room under the eves. These bedrooms are serviced by a full bath in the hall. The modern primary bedroom at the rear of the home is an oasis. Boasting a vaulted ceiling as well as two large closets - one that could even be another special little hobby hole - the entire room is washed in a calming shade of green and features a wall of windows with a view of the tree canopy. The en suite private bath is large and bright. The basement is unfinished and has a convenient open laundry area with a utility sink. The home has been well and lovingly maintained. Updates range from a roof replacement in 2023, full exterior paint in 2023, re-lining of the chimney in 2022, new air conditioning system in 2022, sewer line replacement in 2018, to a new front walk in 2018. The interior of the home was freshly painted in 2024. This home is so delightful that if it was on an island in the middle of nowhere, it would still be cute. But stick it in walking distance to all of the hip and happening things in Takoma Park? Stunning! Steps from this home are conveniences and luxuries alike: Cielo Rojo fine mexican food, Soko a local butcher shop, The Co-op for groceries, Azalea City Nails, The Still Point Spa, are all about a block away. A bit further down Carroll Ave. and you'll find Takoma Beverage Company, People's Books, The Girl and the Vine wine bar, Motorkat restaurant and much more. Getting around is easy with all of this within walking distance, but if you want to go further afield the home is about a mile and a half from the Red Line Metro at Takoma Park. The new Puple line will be going in at Piney Branch and University, a short bus ride away. Driving into Washington is an easy straight shot down North Capitol and commuting further afield is simple with access to 495 only a few minutes away.
