Spectacular, picturesque Craftsman Colonial with an inviting wraparound porch, located in the highly sought-after Takoma Park Historic District. Built circa 1913, this recently renovated home offers a gracious combination of vintage charm and modern convenience. Stately four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath property with abundant architectural details, including reproduction trims throughout, windows with detailed grilles, newly refinished wood floors, a stately mantel with built-ins, and recessed lighting - and a laundry chute! This residence features a gourmet kitchen, a living room with a brick fireplace flanked by display shelving and custom cabinetry, a large open dining room with a modern chandelier, and a generous sunlit family room overlooking the backyard. The kitchen includes granite counters, gas cooking, a French door refrigerator, wood cabinetry, ample prep space, (including a fold-out table specifically for littles,) and a butler’s pantry. The main level is complete with a powder room and a mudroom area.
The upper level offers four bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including the primary suite. The primary bedroom has a walk-in closet and a private en-suite bathroom. The hall bathroom is renovated and well appointed. One of the secondary bedrooms has a balcony overlooking the grounds. There is a large unfinished attic with storage. Downstairs, there is ample storage and a laundry area.
Enjoy the outdoor living space, relax on the wraparound front porch, grill and dine on the deck, or spend time in the 11,250 square foot backyard. The bonus lot ensures your sense of remove for it all - except for on July 4th, when the yard is, by custom, host to the annual neighborhood potluck. The property also includes a detached garage - a future workshop or studio? - and a patio suited for a fire pit.
Enjoy living in eclectic Takoma Park; the location offers both charm and convenience, situated just steps from parks and playgrounds, the farmers’ market, food Co-op, shops, Red Line Metro station, Ace Hardware, and Busboys & Poets. Relish the sense of community as well as access to shopping, restaurants, and entertainment. See you there!
