Ask about SUBSTANTIAL tax savings - potentially $1M through preservation easements. Welcome to 10400 Montgomery Avenue, a beautiful family home that is truly the best of Kensington and the best of both worlds – a classic, spacious, and charming Victorian residence fully renovated and updated with a large three-story addition designed by GTM Architects. The home is situated on a large and open 3/4-acre lot with plenty of privacy but located in the center of historic and vibrant Kensington, right next to shops, restaurants, Noyes Library, BabyCat Brewery, the Farmers Market and MARC train station, for an easy commute to DC. Craftsmanship shines throughout the home, featuring high ceilings, large decks and porches, rich woodwork and generous windows that bathe the home with natural light. Completed in 2010, the addition includes a chef’s kitchen, large family room with coffered ceiling, master bedroom suite and finished basement. The spacious kitchen features a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Thermador range and a large center island with two Miele dishwashers. Well-proportioned bedrooms, cozy nooks and thoughtful touches reflect the home's personality and enduring warmth. The finished attic and the basement add lots of additional space for entertaining or home offices. A whole-house audio system adds to the entertainment possibilities. With this rare blend of character, modern comfort, generous lot size and unparalleled convenience, this gem of a home is ready to welcome its next chapter.
