Timeless, authentic arts and crafts charm with original detailing throughout are blended with thoughtful and modern updates. This spacious and expanded home with 4,450 sf of living space and high ceilings on all levels has just been prepped for sale -- freshly painted top to bottom; the vintage pine floors refinished; updated lighting installed; and brand new stainless steel, energy efficient appliances installed including an electric range, refrigerator, dishwasher, and Samsung washer and dryer.
The inviting and wide front porch, the ideal spot to enjoy your morning coffee beckons you inside. Once inside you are greeted with original gleaming pine floors and sun-filled spaces. The home dating back to 1918 has a rich history and it shows in the craftsman details throughout like the windows, columns, hardware, woodwork, and moldings.
On the main level, the spacious living and dining areas lead seamlessly to the warm and inviting chef's kitchen with a coffered ceiling in the eating area -- that flows out to a screened in porch that offers a sense of airiness and connection to the outdoors. The rear deck ideal for grilling and entertaining overlooks the expansive fenced backyard perfect for gardening, entertaining and play. The generous living space on the main floor also includes a mudroom, an office/den, a bedroom with an en suite full bath that offers flexibility for guests or a main floor primary, as well as the laundry and powder room for guests. Up the stairs to a delightful and cozy landing with built-in book cases -- just the spot to cozy up with a book. On this floor there are two large bedrooms with new ceiling fans and each with a charming bonus space for extra bedrooms or use as creative workspace, library or storage; the delightful balcony off the front bedroom has green, tree top views! The rest of the floor boats an office; a full bath; and the private, spacious primary bedroom retreat with hardwood floors, an en suite full bath with separate showe -- and an ample walk-in closet.
The on-grade, light-filled lower level is a site to behold! A self-contained separate unit with so much square footage -- with its own entrance , screened-in porch and foyer. Recently renovated with top of the line finishes, this level boats a full gourmet kitchen with granite countertops and white cabinetry, an oversized family room, huge bedroom, a light and bright full bath with double sinks and walk-in shower, and a substantial storage / work room. The seller has recently completed numerous upgrades to the HVAC, roof and exterior - this gem is truly move-in ready.
Takoma Park is known for it's super local, friendly and vibrant community and a walkable lifestyle with the year round weekend farmers' market and easy biking, hiking and walking access to greenery, parks, and the Metro. It is home to numerous community, music and arts festivals; dining, boutique shopping, and al fresco eateries; the food co-op, book stores, organic food options; and many delightful bespoke shops.
