About this home
Single Family · Built 1934 · Historic
Back on the market. No fault of the Seller. Well maintained, detached single-family home nestled in a highly desirable neighborhood just walking distance from Fort Totten Metro. This inviting three-bedroom two full bath home has an optional fourth bedroom. It offers timeless charm and tons of potential. It offers a beautiful screened-in front porch for enjoying warm evenings without the bugs. The four-way split layout is very functional and gives one the option to separate one section of the house into a rental unit or in-law suite as it has a large bedroom with a full bath, a mini kitchen with a private entrance. The rooms are large with incredible detail and great natural sunlight throughout. Step outside to a large, level backyard perfect for gatherings, gardening or simply relaxing. A huge, detached garage adds a ton of possibilities. With its unbeatable location, character-filled interior, and great outdoor space, this home is a true gem. Close to parks, shops, restaurants and everything DC and Silver Spring has to offer. The property is sold as-is but is move-in ready. Seller is offering $20,000 for upgrades/closing. Schedule your private tour and experience all it has to offer.
