Investor’s Dream!!! Single family home with a private efficiency apartment in the lower level—rent it out to help pay the bills! This traditional circa 1940’s colonial has been updated for modern living, with a full-length family room addition on the main level and a master bedroom suite addition on the upper level(complete with full bath and spacious walk-in closets). Three more bedrooms and a full bath on the upper level are part of the original structure. The full-size attic is easily accessed via a pull-down ladder. The main level includes a living room entrance with wood-burning fireplace and an adjoining sunroom that makes an ideal home office (the house is wired throughout with high speed internet). This welcoming space opens to the brand-new kitchen/dining area—new cabinets with soft close doors and drawers, quartz counters, LG appliances, flooring, and lighting. Go out the back door to enjoy an ample shaded deck made of easy-care composite materials—plenty of room for a barbecue. Enjoy the “rewilded” backyard from a comfortable distance. Tuck the lawn mower under the deck or stow it in the locked space beneath the sunroom. Plenty of room for a kayak or two. A separate lockable garden shed can hold bikes or other sporting equipment. The efficiency apartment in the lower level has its own entrance and includes a proper egress window and full kitchen along with access to the common area laundry. Potential uses may be rental income, a home office or space for visiting guests/family. The house is locate just a few steps away from bus routes 17, 18, & 25 (maps in documents) which take you through Takoma Park to the Takoma and Silver Spring Metro Stations as well as the SS MARC. Once completed, the Purple Line is a few short blocks away. The town of Takoma Park features wonderful restaurants, entertainment, shopping, music, and culture. Moreover your kids will thrive in the academic excellence of the highly rated, local public schools.
