Property Description
Step into a timeless embrace of history with this magnificent 3000+ square feet, six-bedroom, 3-full bathroom bungalow. Nestled just three blocks from the new Whole Foods market in the Walter Reed Development, this classic residence boasts unparalleled curb appeal, featuring a covered front porch adorned with ample seating and a backyard designed for the ultimate entertainer's dream.
Picture yourself sipping morning coffee and evening wine on the expansive front porch, soaking in the charm of this historic gem. As you step inside, be captivated by the grandeur of generous room proportions, elegant arches, original wood finishes, and an abundance of character. The main level showcases beautiful hardwood floors, a charming wood-burning fireplace with a mantle, separate living and dining rooms, and a spacious gourmet kitchen equipped with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. Three generously sized bedrooms and a full bathroom complete the main level.
Venturing upstairs opens up possibilities for a sprawling master bedroom with Elfa fittings closet space and a sitting room, or the option to configure the upper level into two bedrooms with a shared full bathroom. The basement adds even more flexibility, once serving as an in-law suite with a full kitchenette, a bedroom, and a full bathroom, boasting its own private entrance. The lower level also provides additional office and living space, along with a convenient laundry room and an attached garage.
Stepping outside through the kitchen door, you'll find an expansive, meticulously landscaped rear yard and patio area—a perfect backdrop for outdoor gatherings. Parking is effortless with an attached garage and an additional private driveway spot. Located near the natural beauty of Rock Creek Park and hiking trails, this home seamlessly blends the charm of the old with the convenience of the new.
Enjoy proximity to amenities such as Whole Foods, Target, coffee shops, restaurants, and vibrant farmer’s markets—all just minutes away. Commuting is a breeze with easy access to the nearby Silver Spring and Takoma Metro stations, ensuring hassle-free travel and access to The Parks at Walter Reed. Families will appreciate the prime location within a 10 to 15-minute drive of multiple public/charter/private schools known for their excellence in education. Come witness the magic – see it to believe it!
