7004 Southwark Ter

EVEN BETTER AT THIS NEW PRICE! This grand and expansive, stone-front Colonial was custom built. The classic, quality craftsmanship is apparent, beginning with the home's exceptional stone front. Mature trees and plantings frame the house, and a stone walkway leads to an entry porch which has a copper roof. Sunlight pours through the large, energy efficient Anderson windows; highlighting freshly refinished oak floors, newly painted walls, crown molding, and wainscoting. The roomy kitchen has space for a large table and features cherry cabinets, quartz countertops, and new Kitchenaid and Fisher Pykel stainless appliances. The adjacent family room has a raised hearth fireplace and provides access to a gorgeous enclosed porch that was added in 2012. The porch's cathedral ceiling and large windows make it feel like being outside. There's a laundry room near the kitchen and a powder room that is accessed from the home's central hall. Upstairs there are three bedrooms and two baths. The primary bedroom has its own bath and two walk-in closets. The finished lower level has a recreation room area or sitting room, bedroom, full bath, and a caterer's kitchen. It's a great guest suite or maybe a quiet space for a couple of offices. Imagine the convenience of a stairway "commute" from home to work! Many features of the house are subtle--the feel of solid wooden doors, the convenience of coming into the house directly from the garage, and the pleasure of knowing there's no exterior painting. At the house there's a list of other features and substantial improvements and renovations that reflect long time care and pride of ownership. College Heights Estates is a highly desirable neighborhood of homes within walking distance of the University of Maryland. The impressive tree canopy and visually-appealing, well-maintained houses are trademarks of the community. It has a quiet, small-town feel; while, at the same time, being in easy reach of public transportation, restaurants and entertainment, shopping at the Riverdale Park Whole Foods and the College Park Trader Joe's (under construction) and the upcoming developments around the Purple Line Metro (under construction). There's also easy access to walking /biking trails.
