Property Description
This quintessential Takoma home built in 1913 is a marvelous example of Craftsman design in the early 1900s, nestled in a lovely neighborhood that combines urban convenience and sophistication with small town charm. The front door welcomes you into a stunning wood filled foyer, with room after room that surround you with abundant natural light, original lovingly maintained oak hardwood floors, and a cozy brick fireplace in the living room. An elegant formal dining room and comfy living room adorn the main level, and the kitchen opens to a porch that leads out to a deck on the back of the house. A beautiful renovation on the third level sports a expertly designed primary bedroom and bath with an adjoining sitting room, skylights, closets and plenty of storage space. You’ll also find four nice-sized bedrooms on the main level, as well as a partially finished lower level with a rear entrance. Outside, with beautiful landscaping in a fully fenced front and back lot, you’ll discover a treasure that comes with this home. The allure of the deep backyard and deck will transport you away from your busy workweek while you relax and marvel at a magnificent 100+ year old tree that graces this property which is truly awe inspiring. It’s really beautiful! Nearby, there are numerous places for shopping, restaurants and cafes, live music opportunities, fitness centers, and a whole lot of more of lovely goodness to discover! It’s conveniently located less than 3 blocks from the entrance of the Red Line Takoma Metro Station, and has nearby access to major roadways. You’ll find Rock Creek Park is minutes away with its scenic trails and paths, SIMPLY THE BEST Farmer’s Market in DC is just 4 blocks away, tennis courts and pickle ball at the nearby Takoma Recreation Center, and the Takoma Aquatic Center for swimming and related activities to name just a few of the great reasons you’ll love this home and its location! Oh, did I mention it has a private driveway? Yes, it has that too! All of this summed up in just one word – Splendiferous!
