Description

Nestled on a picture-perfect, tree-lined lot in the heart of historic takoma park, this beautifully updated home is the rare blend of modern comfort and classic charm. set back from the road with a lush front lawn and framed by mature landscaping, it offers a serene retreat just half a mile from the takoma metro and vibrant downtown.
from the moment you arrive, the home delights with curb appeal—a wide front porch welcomes breezy afternoons with a glass of lemonade, while the custom front door with stained glass hints at the thoughtful details within.
inside, freshly painted walls and newly refinished solid hardwood floors create a bright, inviting interior. the floor plan flows effortlessly, with generous ceiling height and natural light throughout. the stunning sunroom addition is a true highlight—bathed in sunlight and perfect year-round for morning coffee, quiet reading, or hosting summer bbqs overlooking the sunny deck and expansive backyard.
the main level features a gracious living and dining area, an open-concept kitchen with newer appliances (2023), a center island, ample cabinetry, pantry, and the sweetest breakfast nook. a real entry foyer with built-ins and a coat closet sets the tone for a home that’s as functional as it is beautiful. a versatile bonus room with french doors serves perfectly as an office, guest room, or creative studio, plus a convenient powder room rounds out the main level.
upstairs offers three spacious bedrooms, a recently updated hall bath, and a large laundry closet for ultimate convenience. the primary suite boasts a stylish private bath and a generous walk-in closet. a fully floored attic provides ample storage or potential for future expansion.
the finished lower level is a true bonus with tall ceilings, two additional rooms (ideal for offices, guest space, or a home gym), a full bath, kitchenette, and its own private entrance—perfect as an au pair/in-law suite, short-term rental, or extended guest space.
energy-efficient windows, newer systems, and vibrant seasonal landscaping enhance the home’s long-term livability. the driveway offers generous off-street parking, and the yard is both stunning and functional with mature trees, native plantings, and plenty of space to garden, play, or entertain.
lovingly maintained by the same owner for 40 years, this home has been thoughtfully improved with a kitchen remodel (2015), bathroom updates (2019), and new appliances within the past year. it’s part of a close-knit, welcoming community with neighborhood events, a lively listserv, and short stroll to *everything*: 0.5 mi to takoma metro, 0.6 mi to takoma bev co, spring mill bakery, the tp farmers market, restaurants, parks, and takoma park schools, and almost built brand new library! right down the block from belle ziegler park!
bonus: this home was a proud recipient of the *sustainable takoma* award
