Inside, you'll find spacious bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, a half bath and two fireplaces that add warmth and charm. The finished basement with a separate entrance offers an excellent opportunity to create an additional suite or kitchenette. Plus, the home is ready for an open-concept transformation, allowing you to modernize while preserving its character.
Step outside to a large, fenced-in backyard, ideal for entertaining, gardening, or future expansion. The home also features front and back porches, adding to its classic appeal. A garage with additional parking provides convenience, while solar panels offer future energy savings.

Takoma Recreation Center provides access to a pool, playgrounds, and sports courts, and a quick drive to Silver Spring takes you to the AFI Silver Theatre, a top destination for indie and classic films.
This is your chance to bring new life to a classic home in one of DC’s most exciting neighborhoods! Whether you're an investor looking for your next project or a buyer with a vision, this home is full of opportunity.
