Property Description
A quintessential bungalow front porch with a tongue-and-groove ceiling welcomes you inside, where the spacious living room features a wood-burning fireplace flanked by windows. The large dining room flows seamlessly into the updated kitchen, which boasts butcher block countertops, stainless steel appliances, a five-burner gas range, and a subway tile backsplash. The kitchen provides direct access to the bright versatile sunroom and backyard. The main level also includes two bedrooms and an updated full bathroom.
Upstairs, three sizable bedrooms offer walk-in closets, and a newly renovated full bathroom adds modern comfort. The lower level features a generous recreation room, an additional bedroom, an office, a full bathroom, and a laundry/workroom with ample storage space. The home is also equipped with owned solar panels, providing energy efficiency and sustainability.
Outside, the beautifully landscaped backyard is a private oasis, complete with a brick patio, a pergola covered in kiwi vines, and mature fruit trees, including fig and cherry. The detached oversized garage (which conveys ‘as-is,') offers a floored second level for additional storage. The front yard features a lovely water garden and established plantings.
Enjoy the warm sense of community and unbeatable location near the Walter Reed redevelopment, local farmers market, concerts in the park. All just 0.6 miles from the Takoma Metro Station. Additionally, the home is only blocks from the Fort Stevens Recreation Center, Takoma Aquatic Center, and Rock Creek Park. Experience the best of Brightwood living in this charming, character-filled, cared-for home!
